What You’ll Do

You will join a small US engineering team building full‑stack software and AI‑powered features used across a global business. This is a hands‑on role: you’ll write production code, own components end‑to‑end, and help shape technical direction.

  • Own components and small services from specification through deployment and operation
  • Contribute to AI features: prompt engineering, agent workflows, RAG pipelines, and LLM integrations
  • Participate in architecture and design discussions and influence technical direction
  • Write clean, tested, maintainable code and take part in code reviews
  • Collaborate with engineering lead, DevOps, and business stakeholders to translate requirements into shipped software
  • Help maintain and improve developer practices: CI/CD, testing, documentation, and operational excellence

Qualifications

Required

  • 0–3 years professional full‑stack software engineering experience
  • Strong proficiency with React (or similar modern frontend framework) and Python (Django, FastAPI, or similar)
  • Solid understanding of REST APIs, relational databases, and modern web application architecture
  • Familiarity with containerized deployments (Docker)
  • Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS or Azure) and CI/CD workflows (GitHub Actions or equivalent)
  • Excellent written and verbal communication; comfortable working across time zones and with non‑technical stakeholders
  • Curiosity about AI/ML and a genuine interest in building AI‑powered products

Strongly preferred

  • Production experience integrating with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, or similar)
  • Familiarity with agent orchestration frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph), vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate), or RAG architectures
  • Experience with modern data infrastructure (Databricks, Snowflake, Airbyte, or similar)
  • Experience with workflow automation platforms (n8n, Zapier, Temporal, or similar)

Nice to have

  • Experience on small engineering teams where individual ownership is high
  • Exposure to enterprise SaaS or compliance‑sensitive industries
  • Background in AEC, construction tech, or industrial software
