POSITION

- A Senior Fullstack Engineer (AI-Native) builds production-grade applications and intelligent workflows with an AI-first mindset across the full software development lifecycle. This role is for an engineer who does not treat AI as an add-on, but as a core way of working across design, implementation, testing, documentation, debugging, and delivery.

- The ideal candidate consistently approaches work by asking whether a task can be completed entirely with AI or materially improved through AI-assisted execution, while still applying strong engineering judgment and quality controls.

CHALLENGE

- Full-Stack Engineering: Design, build, and maintain scalable applications using Java (backend).

- AI-Native Product Development: Integrate GenAI APIs and LLM-powered capabilities into core product workflows. Build agentic flows, tool-using systems, and AI workflow automations with clear guardrails and observability.

- AI-Native Engineering Practice: Apply AI-assisted workflows across the full SDLC - from design and implementation to testing, debugging, and documentation. Review and validate AI-generated outputs for correctness, security, and production readiness.

- Technical Leadership: Drive architectural decisions, mentor engineers, and champion AI-native engineering practices across the team.

FOR THIS EXCITING MISSION YOU ARE EQUIPPED WITH...

- 6+ years of professional full-stack engineering experience across frontend, backend, APIs, databases, and production systems, with strong end-to-end ownership of product delivery.

- Strong backend development skills in Java and/or Python, with solid understanding of system architecture, scalability, and production reliability.

- Experience integrating GenAI APIs, LLM features, assistants, or AI-powered product capabilities into production systems.
