Afternoon Ai Programmer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Software Developer — AI-Native Builder

Repeatable AI · North Myrtle Beach, SC · Local + Flexible

Are you the developer who's faster with AI than most teams are without it?

You taught yourself to ship real software with Claude Code or the Codex CLI. You don't fight the tools — you run them. But you're stuck somewhere that treats AI coding like a gimmick, hands you legacy-maintenance tickets, and acts like the last decade of best practices is the final word. The most interesting work in software is happening on a screen somewhere else, while your days go to patching things you didn't build.

Imagine a Monday where the backlog is products people actually use — a productivity-measurement platform, an ROI dashboard, internal tools for real enterprise clients. You spin up an agentic build loop, ship a feature by lunch, and walk it to the founder's desk that afternoon for a live review. No layers. No politics. Nobody telling you to slow down. The thing you're best at is the thing you're paid to do all day.

About the role

Repeatable AI builds AI-productivity products for enterprise clients across insurance, manufacturing, automotive, and fintech. We're founder-led, fast-moving, and we treat AI coding tools as core infrastructure — not a novelty. You'll work directly with a CEO who personally ships production code with these exact tools, on products including our Deliverable Creation Engine, ROI Tracking Platform, and ROI Flow application. Developers tired of maintenance work find their footing here, shipping end-to-end with the AI-native workflows they've already mastered.

Most AI-developer listings compete on cash and remote flexibility — and if that's all you want, larger companies will outbid us. We compete on something they can't offer: real ownership, a founder in the room, and an interview that pays you to do the work instead of grading you in the dark.

Your first 90 days

• Days 1–30 (full-time, in-office): Onboard onto our products and codebase, pair with the team, ship your first production feature, establish your build workflow.
• Days 31–60: Own a feature area on ROI Flow or the DCE platform. Run your own AI-assisted build loops against the backlog with light review.
• Days 61–90: Ship independently — requirement to deployed feature — and explain every line of what you shipped.

What you must bring

• Provable, current fluency with Claude Code or the OpenAI Codex CLI (or directly comparable agentic tools). "Provable" means a public GitHub, a portfolio, or a live build in front of us.
• 1–3 years of hands-on coding. Intentionally not a senior role. We want current capability, not a long résumé.
• The ability to read, debug, and fix code without AI. Part of the interview is an AI-disabled round where you explain and repair existing code. Fluency with the tool isn't enough — you must understand what it produces.
• Adaptability. Today's tool isn't tomorrow's. We hire for how you work with agentic AI, using your named tools as the evidence.

Location & schedule

This is a local position with a flexible, negotiable schedule. You must live within commuting distance of North Myrtle Beach and be able to come into the office when it matters.

• First 30 days: full-time, in-office. Non-negotiable for onboarding. Start dates are flexible — if you're giving notice somewhere, tell us, we'll work with you.
• After 30 days: we set a rhythm that fits the work and fits you. Most weeks that means a day or so in-office for live reviews and build sessions, the rest remote — but the exact cadence is a conversation, not a mandate. We care what you ship, not where you sit.

You must live within commuting distance. We're prioritizing Myrtle Beach, Conway, Little River, North Myrtle Beach, Grand Strand and the Wilmington area (NC)— and within roughly 60 miles of 3210 Airport Boulevard, North Myrtle Beach, SC 29582: Conway, Loris, Aynor, Georgetown, Murrells Inlet, Florence, and Marion (SC); and Shallotte, Southport, Leland, and the greater Wilmington area (NC). Outside this radius, you're not eligible for this posting.

Compensation

$70,000 – $95,000 base, set by demonstrated AI-coding capability. Strong candidates typically land in $78,000–$85,000. We pay for what you can build, not for years served — show us throughput and the number moves up.

How to apply

No cover letter. Send one thing: a link to something you built with AI tooling — a repo, a deployed app, a demo. If we like it, your interview is a paid 90-minute live build session where you do the real work of the job, with us, in real time. You'll know exactly what working here feels like before you ever commit. No take-home graded into the void. No five-round gauntlet.

If you're already living in the future of how software gets built — and you're tired of being the only one in the room who knows it — this is your seat.
