MUST BE WILLING TO TAKE A 60 MINUTE CODING ASSESSMENT.

Lead Software Engineer Responsibilities:

- Own the application engineering strategy and execution across backend, mobile, and desktop.

- Design reliable systems for AI-powered workflows, including state, orchestration, tool use, retries, fallbacks, and failure handling.

- Build the APIs and abstractions that connect Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems to real-world product experiences.

- Lead a small, senior engineering team and raise the technical bar through design reviews, code reviews, and hands-on mentorship.

- Make high-impact trade-offs across latency, reliability, cost, security, and user experience.

- Establish strong production foundations: observability, monitoring, testing, and operational excellence.

- Partner closely with Machine Learning (ML) leadership to turn model capabilities into robust, shippable product experiences.

- Move quickly while keeping the architecture simple, maintainable, and ready to scale.

Lead Software Engineer Outcomes:

- Production systems are observable, monitored, and stable under real-world load.

- Decisions consistently balance speed, cost, reliability, and user experience.

- Features across backend, mobile, and desktop work smoothly and reliably.

- Latency and reliability improve measurably over time.

Qualifications

- Artificial Intelligence (AI) experience is required.

- Significant experience leading application or product engineering for complex systems.

- Strong hands-on background building and shipping backend systems used in production.

- Experience building AI-powered products or systems that integrate with modern Machine Learning (ML)/Large Language Model (LLM) capabilities.

- Strong technical judgment and the ability to make decisions with incomplete information.

- Comfortable working across backend and client platforms, with deep expertise in at least one.

- A strong bias toward ownership, shipping, and learning from real-world usage.

- High standards for code quality, reliability, and engineering fundamentals.

Benefits include medical insurance, Dental, Vision, Savings Plan Options, PTO, etc.
