About the role

AI at Loop Engineering: Engineering at Loop is AI-first, not aspirationally, but operationally.
Every engineer is provisioned with Claude Code and Cursor, and we expect AI agents to be your default starting point before you open a file.
The role has shifted: you are not primarily a writer of code.

Design and implement complex, high-quality features across the full stack: backend services, APIs, lambdas, and frontend. Translate ambiguous requirements into clear technical designs and own the trade-offs.
Set the standard for AI-assisted code review on your team. Model what good verification looks like, not just for your own PRs, but in how you give feedback on others' AI-generated work.
Lead small to medium-sized technical initiatives: provide direction, surface dependencies early, and keep stakeholders informed without being asked.
Make the system around you more effective, not just your own output. Propose improvements to code quality, processes, and team norms, and follow through on them.
You use AI agents as your default starting point and can describe your actual workflow: how you plan, prompt, evaluate output, and decide where to spend your review time. You own what ships, regardless of how it was generated.
You track how your code behaves in production, not because someone asks you to, but because you own the outcome. You've caught regressions before support tickets did.
Mentor and develop more junior engineers through code review, pairing, and direct feedback.
Make the system around you more effective, not just your own output.

You have a point of view on where AI helps and where it gets engineers into trouble, and you actively help your team navigate that line.
You have examples of leading technical initiatives, mentoring engineers, and driving cross-functional alignment.

We expect you'll grow quickly, learning skills that last far beyond your time here.
Loop is a formative chapter in your career - a chance to shape the future of commerce and to leave better than when you arrived.
Making the people around you better is part of the job, not a bonus.

protect margins, delight customers, and help merchants build businesses that last.
Life at Loop is rooted in our core values.
We balance high empathy with high standards, knowing that work is better when we can show up authentically and resilience is built by facing challenges head-on.
