You’ll ship production features fast by pairing deep engineering fundamentals with AI-assisted development. You’ll compose services, generate code responsibly, write tests, and stand up evaluation harnesses so quality, cost, and latency are visible and improving week over week.

• Design and ship end-to-end product features across frontend, backend, and AI services (Type Script/Node or Python).
• Use AI assistants to scaffold code, then review, harden, and test it like a pro.
• Build evaluation suites (golden datasets, unit/integration tests) that gate releases for accuracy, safety, cost, and latency.
• Implement guardrails: prompt-injection mitigation, output validation, rate/abuse controls, PII handling, and secret management.
• Instrument everything: tracing, cost/latency dashboards, failure taxonomy, and alerting.
• Own vendor abstraction (OpenAI/Anthropic/Azure, vector stores, embeddings) with clean interfaces and fallbacks.
• Partner with Product/Design on scoping, and with Data/Infra on deployment, CI/CD, and runtime reliability.
• Document prompts, versions, assumptions, and “known bads” so the next iteration is faster.

• You treat AI like a power tool: you can code, but you prefer composing, reviewing, and testing AI-generated code.
• Proficiency with Type Script/Node and/or Python, REST/Graph
  
  QL, containers, and CI/CD.
• Hands-on with LLM APIs, vector databases, retrieval patterns, and prompt/version control.
• Comfortable with Azure or another major cloud; can stand-up services and infra as needed.
• Product mindset: you measure success by shipped value, not LOC.

• Frontend experience (React/Next) and design systems; DX tooling.
• Data wrangling (Pandas/SQL), feature stores, or light MLOps.
• Low/no-code pragmatism (e.g., Power Apps) when it’s the right call.

• Hungry Humble Smart: initiative, urgency, introspection, and valuing EQ over IQ.
• Mindset Matters: calm confidence, pivot when needed, optimistic about the future.
• Team Is Hero: we win as a team, not as individuals.
• Rebel Against Ordinary: strive for the extraordinary and create paths when unclear.
• Relentless Learning: continuous growth through books, podcasts, and ideas.

• 100% employer-paid medical, dental and disability, with vision option
• Generous 401(k) matching
• Flexible paid time off, 9 paid holidays plus 2 floating holidays
• Paid parental leave (birthing and non-birthing parents, including adoption)
• Annual office supply allowance, monthly internet stipend, and employer-paid cell phone
• Opportunities to connect virtually and in-person twice a year with our remote team

We welcome applications from everyone and maintain a commitment to equal opportunity employment. Our remote-friendly model supports flexibility across the US; however, we are unable to support employment in California or applicants outside of the US. We do not sponsor immigration now or in the future (e.g., F1-OPT, H-1B, TN, L-1, J-1).

The base pay range is dependent on factors such as training, transferable skills, work experience, and location. This description contains the information current at the time of posting.
