We believe the next decade of work will be done by humans and AI agents together. Not agents replacing people, and not a chat window bolted onto software built for humans clicking around, but both working in one system of action, where an agent’s work is as visible and as accountable as a person’s.
Most software treats AI as a feature. We treat agents as a kind of worker, and that changes what the system underneath has to be. Agents are only as good as the context they can see and the state they are allowed to change, so shared context, explicit state, durable history, and accountable action are not items on our roadmap. They are the product. Plane is built so that when an agent acts, the humans responsible can see what happened, why, and on whose authority, and the record survives.
This is what the infrastructure is for: making the future where humans and agents work together useful, legible, and fully within the organization’s control. Every role at Plane is some part of building that.
Plane ships to our cloud, to customers’ clusters, and to machines that never touch the internet, which means a release has to be right before it leaves, because we often cannot see what happens after it does. You will own the automated test suite that gives us that confidence: what it covers, what runs on every pull request, and whether engineers believe it when it goes red. The interesting problems here are the ones that resist automation, including two clients editing the same document, a browser that went offline mid-edit and came back, a desktop app, and agents acting inside a workspace where the correct outcome is a range rather than a value. You will work with product and engineers in San Francisco and Hyderabad, and with community contributors whose pull requests arrive in public with varying amounts of test coverage.
