February 2026 Summaries

Cartesia is actively exploring the use of AI coding agents to enhance productivity, integrating tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and BugBot to improve code quality through varied feedback. Despite the successful adoption of these agents for tasks like complex refactors and automated code reviews, a gap remains in their ability to assess a feature's impact and iterate based on real-world feedback, revealing a bottleneck due to broken feedback loops. The company has identified that providing coding agents with access to necessary infrastructure, such as CI, internal dashboards, and data from tools like PostHog, can enable them to better judge success and failure, which in turn benefits human engineers by streamlining processes. Cartesia views the strategic enhancement of coding agents and infrastructure as pivotal not only for engineering but also for other business functions, and is seeking to hire an AI & Developer Acceleration engineer to further develop this area and optimize workflows across the company.
