Senior Software Engineer – Agent Developer Platform
alpaca · Remote - Americas · Posted 8 days ago
Own the agent-facing developer platform, from MCP servers and tools to the APIs behind them, that every Alpaca builder and partner integrates with.
We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to build the developer platform that agents and partners use to integrate and build on. You evolve Alpaca’s MCP servers, tools, and skills, and you build the APIs behind them.
You play a central role to define the architecture that provides the fastest time to market for integrators. Builders who embed Alpaca for their end users all use this surface.
This is a hands-on role. You will lead through architecture, code, design reviews, and mentorship, and you will ship the first version yourself. You will partner with Product, Compliance, Risk, and Platform Engineering teams.
Things You Get To Do:
- Design and build Alpaca’s agent-facing developer platform: MCP servers, tools, skills, and the APIs behind them.
- Evolve that platform as the MCP protocol and connector, plugin, and skill standards change.
- Build new APIs that make trading and account capabilities available to apps and agents.
- Decide which components the platform renders, so developers and partners build apps faster from shared building blocks.
- Keep Alpaca’s execution model current with the MCP protocol and with connector, plugin, and skill standards, and translate what changes into the application architecture of the developer platform.
- Own production reliability and quality for the services you build.
- Mentor engineers and raise the quality of design and implementation in this area.
