About the Role

As a Senior AI Native Software Engineer, you will build customer‑facing products, internal tools, and workflow automations by directing AI agents to accelerate software development.

• Build and ship complete applications, workflow automations, and AI‑powered tools within your team's product area using AI coding agents and related development tooling.
• Translate ambiguous customer and business needs into structured requirements, technical plans, and production‑ready solutions.
• Own delivery from concept through deployment, including architecture, implementation, instrumentation, testing, rollout, and iteration.
• Evaluate AI‑generated code and artifacts against Remitly's standards for security, privacy, reliability, maintainability, and product quality before shipping.
• Partner across engineering, product, design, data, and platform teams to deliver scalable end‑to‑end solutions.
• Use metrics and analytics to assess adoption, quality, and business outcomes, and drive iterative improvements based on data.
• Mentor other engineers in AI‑native development practices and contribute reusable approaches, documentation, and team standards.

• 8+ years of software engineering experience building and shipping production systems, products, or platforms.
• 1+ years of demonstrated proficiency using AI coding agents or similar generative AI development tools for end‑to‑end application delivery.
• Strong ability to decompose problems, write effective prompts, evaluate outputs critically, and iterate until solutions meet quality expectations.
• Solid understanding of full‑stack application development, including frontend, backend, APIs, data stores, and cloud infrastructure.
• Experience with common architectural patterns such as web applications, service‑oriented systems, databases, queues, and event‑driven workflows.
• Strong product sense and the ability to connect customer problems to practical, high‑impact technical solutions.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, with sound judgment around secure and responsible software delivery.
