AI Technical Lead - C++ Ecosystem

<p> <strong>Headquarters:</strong> Amsterdam, Netherlands; Belgrade, Serbia; Berlin, Germany; Limassol, Cyprus; London, United Kingdom; Madrid, Spain; Munich, Germany; Paphos, Cyprus; Prague, Czech Republic; Remote, Germany; Warsaw, Poland; Yerevan, Armenia </p> <p>AI is fundamentally changing how developers write, understand, debug, and maintain software.</p> <p>At JetBrains, we're exploring what an AI-native development experience should look like for C++ developers. We are looking for a senior technical leader to help shape this future by building AI-powered workflows, integrating coding agents into developer tools, and defining how CLion can become a first-class environment for AI-assisted software development.</p> <p>This is a highly hands-on role focused on technical leadership rather than people management. You should expect to spend most of your time prototyping, implementing, and validating AI-powered workflows while helping shape technical direction through hands-on engineering. You'll work at the intersection of developer tools, AI agents, IDE architecture, and product strategy while helping define how software developers work with AI in the future.</p> <h3><strong>Example problems you'll work on:</strong></h3> <ul> <li>How can coding agents become more effective when working with large C++ codebases?</li> <li>How can CLion's debugging, code understanding, and navigation capabilities be integrated into AI-assisted development workflows?</li> <li>How should AI-po
