Sr Python Full Stack Developer Jobs in Oregon (NOW HIRING)

Robots & Pencils is an applied AI engineering firm building the next frontier of business architecture. We design and ship AI co-workers that integrate into enterprise operations and deliver measurable results for our clients. We're all in on AWS, combining deep UX capability with senior engineering talent to get AI into production fast and keep it there.

We've earned the trust of leaders across Consumer Products and Retail, Education, Energy, Financial Services, Healthcare, and Manufacturing and more, and earned a reputation as the nimble alternative to traditional global systems integrators. Founded in 2009, with delivery centers in Canada, the United States, Eastern Europe, and Latin America, we are smaller, faster, and more senior by design. Our teams average 15+ years of experience. We move fast, sweat the details, and build things that actually ship.

We're looking for a Staff Full Stack Engineer to lead the design and delivery of complex, enterprise integration platforms. This role is ideal for an experienced engineer who can own end-to-end architecture across data pipelines, enterprise system integrations, and cloud infrastructure while delivering polished full-stack applications on top.

In this role, you will work as a key technical contributor on a cross-functional team, defining standards and best practices, building scalable systems, and solving complex integration challenges. You'll connect enterprise platforms like ServiceNow and SharePoint to modern AWS-backed data pipelines, define the full-stack architecture that surfaces that data to end users, and mentor more junior engineers. You'll collaborate closely with senior engineers and leadership, and deliver high-quality work where reliability, performance, and scalability are critical.

At Robots & Pencils, we design AI systems for a human world. Our name says it all. Robots and pencils means engineering paired with creativity, because every agent we ship has to work for real people in real workflows. That balance is baked into how we operate.

Every role here contributes directly to that mission. Here, you shape how AI systems integrate into enterprise operations, how teams move at real velocity, and how products create measurable impact for clients and the people they serve. You'll be the engineer who makes sprawling enterprise data actually usable, connecting ServiceNow workflows, SharePoint content, and AWS data infrastructure into systems that deliver real business value. We ship production-ready AI in 30 to 45 days. That pace demands people who take ownership, lead with craft, and care deeply about what they put their name on.
