Role overview
The Developer Experience Architecture team at CarGurus builds the platforms, tooling, and standards that make hundreds of engineers faster, safer, and more productive. You will contribute to some of our highest-leverage initiatives: standardizing AI agentic development (Claude Code, our internal plugin marketplace, and MCP integrations), evolving our authentication and identity platform (Keycloak, OAuth2/OIDC), and improving the paved paths for service and job creation on AWS. These are complex, cross-cutting problems with global impact. You will own well-scoped pieces of work and partner with engineers and product managers across the org, with support and mentorship from senior teammates. And no, you do not need to know about cars to work here.
What you'll do

• Build and ship developer tooling, framework components, and reusable templates that raise engineering productivity and quality
• Contribute to our agentic development ecosystem: Claude Code configuration, plugins and skills, and MCP servers
• Strengthen the Auth service and agent identity model using Keycloak, OAuth2, and OIDC
• Build and operate services with Java, Spring Boot, AWS, and Kubernetes
• Apply our standards, guardrails, and best practices in your work, and help product teams adopt them
• Investigate, root cause, and improve system reliability and performance

What you'll bring

• Two or more years of hands-on, fullstack software design and development, including at least one year of Java.
• Experience with client and server side JavaScript, including React, Node, and Remix, is a plus
• Experience building web applications and working with cloud-native systems on AWS or similar cloud providers
• Exposure to authentication and identity standards (OAuth2/OIDC), or a strong appetite to learn them
• Experience using modern AI coding tools (assistants, agents, MCP) on real engineering work, or eagerness to adopt them
• Comfort writing tests, using observability tools, and owning well-scoped tasks end to end
• Curious, collaborative, and eager to learn
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent
