SALARY
$120,000 - $225,000
About the role
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience building and shipping software systems.
- You genuinely enjoy building. Side projects, experiments and unfinished ideas are part of how you learn, not something you do only when assigned
- A portfolio of working products, prototypes, repositories, open-source contributions or hackathon builds that demonstrates unusual execution speed and technical depth
- Strong full-stack engineering fundamentals and the ability to personally build across frontend, backend, data and deployment layers
- Hands-on experience creating applications with commercial or open-source LLMs, including model APIs, context design, tool calling or agentic workflows
- The ability to use AI-generated code aggressively while independently reviewing architecture, debugging failures and recognizing security or quality risks
- High ownership and resourcefulness. When requirements are incomplete or technology is new, you start testing possible paths instead of waiting for certainty
- Strong product instinct and the ability to distinguish a clever demo from a system that could solve a meaningful customer or business problem
- Clear communication, low ego and comfort working directly with product, engineering and business leaders
- Experience with retrieval-augmented generation, vector search, model evaluation, observability, multimodal models, MCP or multi-agent systems
- Experience with digital asset management, content management, metadata, taxonomy, search relevance or enterprise media workflows
- Founder, early-stage startup, hackathon or open-source experience where you personally shipped across multiple parts of the stack
- Evidence that you have taken a prototype beyond the happy path by addressing reliability, permissions, security, performance or cost
- Perks of joining the team:
- Competitive compensation
- Medical, Dental, & Vision Insurance
- Life & Disability Insurance 401(k) & Roth with 4% employer match (fully vested)20 Days PTO8 Weeks Parental Leave8 Company Holidays

Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
