WORK ENVIRONMENT:
We are primarily a remote-first company, but you may need to travel a few times per year to visit client sites or attend meetings at designated locations with your team members. Working hours align with the Eastern Time Zone, so candidates located in the Eastern or Central time zones are preferred.
Priority will be given to Atlanta based candidates.
POSITION SUMMARY:
Experience Level: New College Graduate / Early Career (0-5 years)
Team: Product Engineering
Why This Role Exists
We believe the next generation of great engineers will be AI-native, not AI-adjacent. This role is designed for a new or recent college graduate who already treats AI as a core development tool-not a novelty.
You'll work alongside senior engineers to ship real features, improve production systems, and experiment aggressively with AI-driven development workflows. This is not a "ticket-taker" role. We're looking for someone who takes ownership, moves fast, and cares deeply about an efficient design, code quality and impact.
What You'll Do

• Build and ship production features across backend, frontend, and AI-enabled workflows
• Use AI tools (Claude, AWS Kiro, Copilot, etc.) as force multipliers-not crutches
• Write clean, readable, testable code that can scale with the business
• Collaborate with product management and design teams to turn ambiguous problems into working solutions
• Prototype quickly, validate assumptions, and iterate based on real feedback
• Improve developer productivity through automation, tooling, and experimentation
• Learn our systems deeply and continuously raise the quality bar

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR:
Core Traits (Must Have)

• High agency: You don't wait to be told what to do-you figure out what should be done
• Problem solver: You enjoy unclear problems more than clearly defined ones
• Experimenter mindset: You try things, measure results, and adjust
• Quality-driven: You care about correctness, readability, and long-term maintainability
• Scale-oriented thinking: Performance and stability are incorporated from the beginning
• Personal Ownership: You take pride in your work and ensure success end-to-end

Technical Foundation

• Strong fundamentals in computer science (data structures, algorithms, systems thinking)
• Experience building applications in at least one modern language (e.g., Python, TypeScript, Java, Go)
• Familiarity with APIs, databases, and basic cloud concepts
• Comfortable using Git and collaborating in a team codebase

AI-First Bonus Points

• Hands-on experience with Claude, AWS Kiro, or similar AI developer tools
• Curiosity about LLMs, prompt design, agent workflows, or AI-assisted architectures
• Experience using AI for:
• Code generation and refactoring
• Test creation
• Debugging and reasoning through complex logic

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE:
(First 1-6 Months)

• You learn our service delivery lifecycle and about our existing products
• Proficient in our standard development tools and AI Services for development
• Successfully completed multiple POCs and investigations in innovation projects
• Experience troubleshooting issues using AI services
• You're growing faster than a traditional entry-level engineer

(First 6-12 Months)

• You're shipping meaningful features independently
• You proactively improve code, tooling, or workflows without being asked
• You use AI intelligently knowing when to trust it and when to override it
• Conducting code reviews for other developers
• Sharing lessons learned and tips & tricks for AI assisted development

INTERVIEW PROCESS:

• Candidates will typically progress through up to three interviews, each lasting 30 to 60 minutes, with various members of our team. Typical interview sessions include HR discussion, hiring manager, and a technical interview.
• The technical interview will require a demonstration of development using your preferred IDE. It will focus on how you've incorporated AI into your development activities, including the services you've used, the features you like and dislike, and how AI has supported your debugging, feature design, code review, and code generation.

SALARY & BENEFITS:

• $75,000 - $85,000 Annual Salary
• Annual Cash Bonus and Equity Options commensurate with the role level and experience
• 100% Remote
• 401(k) plan
• Insurance - Health, Dental and Vision
• Flexible Paid Time Off
