About the role
- You'll work directly with our VP of Engineering, CTO and Co-Founder Bruce Kim, and CEO Srinivas Njay in a collaborative, in-person environment where the best ideas win and shipping is the scoreboard.
- Define and enforce engineering standards: code review, testing strategies, deployment practices, and incident response
- Embed AI-native tooling (Claude Code, Cursor) into your daily workflow and help the team get better at it
Responsibilities
- Lead the design and implementation of platform services - scalable, observable, and maintainable systems that power our AI products
- Build and extend backend systems in TypeScript and Python; shape frontend experiences in JavaScript
- Drive the integration of LLM-based and agentic AI capabilities into production systems - this is applied AI engineering, not research
- Work side-by-side with product, design, and data - in the office, in real time, every day
- As a Senior Software Engineer, you're not just writing code - you're setting the technical direction for the systems you own.
- This role is for the engineer who has seen what "going fast" actually costs, knows how to build systems that hold up, and still gets things out the door.
- Own technical decisions end-to-end: architecture, APIs, data models, performance, and security
- ๐ค Claude Enterprise + frontier AI tools for every employee - build with the best
- The team is small enough that your judgment shapes everything, and the market is large enough that what you build will matter for a long time.
Requirements
- 3+ years of software engineering experience with a track record of shipping impactful, production-grade systems
- Deep proficiency in TypeScript and/or Python
- Experience designing systems under real constraints - latency, reliability, cost, and scale
- Production experience with conversational AI, dialogue systems, NLP pipelines, or agentic architectures
- Experience being an early engineer at a startup that shipped successfully
Nice to have
- BS/BA in Computer Science
- graduate degree a plus (we take fundamentals seriously)
