The Product Frameworks team’s goal is to make product engineers and AI agents more effective building software with Asana's product frameworks. We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to modernize our custom, home-built frameworks and lead them toward industry-standard, open-source best practices.
Your work will empower our product engineering organization to build and ship with high velocity within an evolving multithreaded agentic world. You will identify friction points in our proprietary systems and architect new approaches that are easier, safer, and AI-native. You will use AI to work more effectively and build the foundation for both product engineers and AI agents working with our frameworks.
This role is based in our New York City office with an office-centric hybrid schedule. The standard in-office days are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Most Asanas have the option to work from home on Wednesdays. Working from home on Fridays depends on the type of work you do and the teams with which you partner. If you're interviewing for this role, your recruiter will share more about the in-office requirements.
What You’ll Achieve:
- Modernize and iterate on Asana’s custom, home-built frameworks to align with modern industry standards.
- Leverage AI agents to speed up migrating from Asana’s legacy systems to modern open-source frameworks.
- Partner with product engineering teams to identify opportunities to speed up development at Asana, and adopt modern best practices across Asana's monorepo.
- Support product engineering teams through office hours and presentations on our frameworks.
About You:
- 5+ years of experience in software engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
- Comfortable transitioning between different areas of a large codebase.
- Interested in using AI agents to migrate legacy systems to open source best practices.
- A collaborative approach to accelerating development cycles through agentic workflows (ex: Claude Code, Cursor).
- You value learning software best practices and sharing that knowledge through mentoring and teaching.
- Experience driving complex technical projects, sometimes spanning multiple teams, and you know when to ask for help and find answers from other people.
- Able to make and articulate technical tradeoffs in decisions that have cross-cutting impact.
- Familiar with full-stack development, for example using technologies like TypeScript, React, and GraphQL.
- Demonstrates curiosity about AI tools and emerging technologies, with a willingness to learn and leverage them to enhance productivity, collaboration, or decision-making.
