Job Description

Join our early-stage start-up as a Senior Software Engineer specializing in Applied Artificial Intelligence. You will be responsible for applying existing agents and frontier models across various platforms to automate processes. You will lead frontend and backend development, mentor other engineers, and architect and build core systems. You will also own product surfaces end to end, partnering closely with product and design. Enjoy a competitive salary, equity, and a range of benefits including health coverage, flexible PTO, and mental health support.

  • Appliquer des agents existants et des modèles de pointe pour automatiser le processus de vérification, de correspondance et d'exécution.
  • Diriger le développement frontend et backend, en mentorant d'autres ingénieurs et en construisant des systèmes centraux.
  • Posséder les surfaces de produit de bout en bout, en collaborant étroitement avec les équipes produit et design.
  • Proven full-stack builder. You have a track record of shipping scalable, performant applications from frontend interfaces to backend distributed systems
  • Voracious learner. You move easily between API design, UX, and deployment infrastructure
  • An applier, not a researcher. You take frontier models and existing agents and wire them into real product across the stack—shipping reliable automation rather than owning the orchestration internals. And you don't need every task to be an AI task: you take the highest-priority problem, model or not
  • Hands-on experience integrating LLMs or agents into real product—prompting, tool wiring, evals. You've shipped AI features, even if you didn't build the platform
  • A track record of shipping scalable products in fast, ambiguous, early-stage environments
  • 5+ years across frontend and backend: TypeScript, React/React Native, and Node.js or Python
  • Strong with APIs, distributed systems, PostgreSQL, and messaging (Kafka or RabbitMQ)
