Staff Software Engineer (AI-Native)

We are looking for Staff Software Engineers who have stopped measuring their impact by how much code they personally write and started measuring it by how much better the entire engineering system performs.

Gradion is hiring a Staff Software Engineer, AI-Native to work across systems, teams and technical domains. Your scope is bigger than one product or one technical layer. You will shape systems spanning web, desktop and mobile front ends, back-end services and APIs, data pipelines, infrastructure, testing, security and operations.

You are a software engineer first. AI is how you work.

The working rule on this team is 𝘇𝗲𝗿𝗼 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱-𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗻 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗰𝗼𝗱𝗲. You work through Claude Code, Codex and whatever replaces them next, and you own every line that lands even though you do not type it. Your job is to turn outcomes into specifications, give agents the context and constraints they need, direct the implementation, and prove the result before it ships.

At Staff level, that leverage extends beyond your own work. You shape how other engineers work with agents, establish technical standards, identify where the real difficulty sits, and create patterns that help teams move faster without lowering the engineering bar.

You decide the boundaries, data models, failure behaviour, trade-offs, security controls, migration paths and operational concerns that AI will not decide for you. You know when to build, when not to build, and when a plausible answer from an agent is still the wrong answer.

If your best work still comes from writing the hardest code yourself, this is probably not the right role. If you want your technical judgement to influence systems, teams and the way software gets built, keep reading.

• You’ll work in a global engineering environment where AI and emerging technologies are part of real delivery, not side projects or demos. We keep technical autonomy high and unnecessary bureaucracy low, so good engineering ideas can move.

• You’ll have the scope to influence architecture, engineering practices and AI-native ways of working across teams rather than being limited to one product or technology stack.

• Gradion has been recognised by ITviec for 8 consecutive years, including Winner for the past 2 years. You’ll collaborate across countries, work on technically challenging projects, and have access to continuous learning and tech communities.

• We also offer competitive compensation, up to 2 months’ bonus, twice-yearly performance reviews, premium healthcare, 15 days annual leave, full salary during probation, and a hybrid working model.

• Working time: Monday–Friday, 09:00–18:00

• Locations: Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, Hanoi and Bangkok
