Job Description

Join Pave, a leading company in the compensation analytics space. As a Senior Software Engineer, you will work on Pave's AI compensation analyst, an autonomous system that utilizes the world's largest proprietary compensation dataset. You will shape the technical vision and execution, collaborating with a team of engineers and data scientists to build the product from start to finish and take it to market. Enjoy flexible time off, top-tier health insurance, and startup equity as part of your benefits package.

  • Concevoir et exécuter la vision technique du produit, en travaillant avec une équipe d'ingénieurs et de scientifiques des données pour construire le produit de bout en bout.
  • Diriger des initiatives techniques de 0 à 1 avec une grande ambiguïté, en les faisant passer du concept à la production.
  • Identifier les problèmes des clients que l'IA peut résoudre de manière unique et collaborer avec l'équipe produit pour façonner ce qui doit être construit.
  • This role requires deep AI expertise, strong product intuition, and a founder mentality
  • 7+ years of experience building production systems, with deep hands-on expertise in LLMs, agentic architectures, retrieval systems, and evaluation frameworks
  • Strong product intuition. You identify customer problems that AI can uniquely solve and partner with Product to shape what gets built, not just how
  • Pragmatic engineering judgment: you know when to move fast and when to invest in quality
  • Proven track record leading 0→1 technical initiatives with high ambiguity, driving them from concept to production
  • Founder mentality with bias toward action, ownership, and urgency; you're energized by the challenge of bringing a new AI product to market
  • Ability to drive technical alignment across teams. You'll be defining primitives and patterns that other engineers build on, so you need to bring people along
