Your name may not start with A(ndrej) or B(oris); but hey, we are not hiring for A/B testing.

As an AI-Forward Engineer, you will be at the frontier of how AI transforms every function in our startup. You will experiment with, evaluate, and implement AI-powered tools and workflows that accelerate teams across product, engineering, data, design, as well as sales, operations, customer success, and product marketing. The AI landscape evolves weekly — you will be our vanguard: rapidly prototyping with products, then shipping the integrations that give our teams an unfair advantage. A successful candidate combines solid software engineering fundamentals with deep curiosity about the AI ecosystem and a drive to put the best tools in the hands of every team.

Our engineering culture: We operate with shared trust and no egos. We enjoy being "in this together" and collaborating on the challenges of a rapidly scaling business. We live out our company values of curiosity, ownership, simplicity, and GSD.

Work closely with every function (product, engineering, data, design, operations, sales, and product marketing) to discover pain points and translate them into AI-enabled solutions

Experiment with and implement AI-assisted developer tooling, leveraging Claude Code for agentic coding workflows and AI-enhanced CI/CD pipelines that help engineering teams ship faster with higher confidence

Leverage frontier models (Claude, Gemini, Kimi, GPT) as core engineering tools, evaluating new model releases for coding, reasoning, and agentic capabilities, and integrating the best-fit models into team workflows as they evolve

Build and evolve our AI-augmented testing pipeline: from product spec use cases through test cases, test data, unit tests, and end-to-end Playwright automation, all generated via Claude Code, plus large-scale codebase improvement and refactoring through AST-based tooling (Java/Spoon, TypeScript/OXC, Flutter Dart Analyzer)

Evaluate and deploy AI-powered design tools, such as Figma, Pencil, Stitch, Veo, Nano Banana

Integrate AI-native intelligence platforms into go-to-market, operations, customer success, and support workflows

Stay on the leading edge of the AI tool landscape: continuously scouting, testing, and benchmarking new tools as they emerge weekly

Create internal tools and interfaces (chat-based assistants, dashboards, browser extensions, Slack integrations) that make AI capabilities accessible to non-technical stakeholders

Establish best practices for agentic engineering, model evaluation, cost management, security, and responsible AI use across the organization

Instrument and monitor AI-powered systems for reliability, accuracy, and cost-effectiveness

2+ years in engineering or DevOps roles, you know how software gets built, tested, and shipped

Well versed in multiple programming languages including TypeScript, Java, and Python

Hands-on experience with Terraform, GitHub flows/actions, and CI/CD pipelines, and an instinct for where AI can accelerate them

Knowledge of AWS

Already building with AI, whether it's frontier models like Claude, Kimi, or Gemini, agentic coding tools, or something you hacked together last weekend

Comfortable working across teams that don't speak your language (product, data, design, sales, ops), and translating their pain into working tools

A tinkerer's obsession; Show us what you've built

Bias for shipping over perfecting: you'd rather demo a rough v1 in an hour than a polished v3 next week

Compassionate and driven colleagues in a fun environment where success is celebrated

Accelerated career growth in a fast-growing company

Coaching from experienced engineering leaders

Direct access to executives and a transparent company culture

Rare opportunity to change an industry and lives of millions

We are reinventing healthcare / pharmacy - your (grand)parents and your (grand)children will understand and appreciate what you do

Medical / dental / vision / 401(k) package that fits your needs

Generous Vacation Policy - 15 days of paid vacation in the first year, then increases to 20 days after one year

11 paid holidays

Work out of our HQ in beautiful downtown Redwood City

Please note

Applications need to include links to your Github repos -> show us what you've built.
This hybrid role is based in Redwood City, California. 2 - 3 days in office is required.

At Nimble, we are dedicated to putting patients first and improving pharmacies across America. Join us on this exciting journey!

Diversity, inclusion and belonging at Nimble: Nimble is building a diverse and inclusive work environment where we learn from each other. We pride ourselves on being an equal opportunity employer and welcome people of diverse backgrounds, abilities and perspectives.
