Technical Tools

OtherSoftware Engineer Ai

This is an opportunity to join an early-stage startup building an AI-powered secured lending product from the ground up.
You will work on a complex product involving credit analysis, business rules, exceptions, and multiple data integrations.
The engineering approach is AI-native, with coding agents embedded throughout the software development lifecycle.
You will combine strong engineering fundamentals with critical thinking to guide, review, and improve AI-generated solutions.
The role spans architecture, backend integrations, application development, testing, deployment, and production troubleshooting.
You will work closely with Product to translate ambiguous business problems into structured, scalable technical solutions.
This is a high-autonomy environment where you can directly influence the architecture, product, and engineering practices as the company grows.

Partner with Product to understand requirements, business rules, exceptions, dependencies, and potential impacts before translating them into technical solutions.
Break down complex and ambiguous problems into structured systems, workflows, and implementation plans.
Use AI coding agents extensively throughout development by providing appropriate context, objectives, constraints, and iterative feedback.
Contribute to the design and evolution of application architecture, including onboarding flows, backend integrations, asynchronous communication, and distributed components.
Review and critically evaluate AI-generated code and approaches, identifying risks related to security, performance, concurrency, databases, reliability, and maintainability.
Work across different layers of the application, contributing to both frontend and backend functionality rather than operating within rigid technical boundaries.
Implement, test, review, deploy, and monitor features throughout their full lifecycle.
Investigate anomalous system behavior and production issues using logs, metrics, traces, and other diagnostic information.
Make informed technical decisions in situations where requirements or solutions are not fully defined, testing approaches and adapting quickly as new information emerges.
Help establish scalable engineering practices and contribute to the evolution of the product and technical architecture.
