JetBrains is hiring a hands-on AI technical lead for CLion, its C++ IDE, to work on coding agents and AI-assisted development. The role involves designing agent tool integrations, prototyping AI workflows for debugging, refactoring and code navigation, and building benchmarks for AI-assisted C++ development.
