Senior AI Full Stack Developer

About the Role

We're building an AI-powered automation platform and looking for a Senior AI Full Stack Developer to take us from MVP to production. This isn't a throwaway prototype you'll be architecting a product that already has customers waiting. You'll own the technical vision, make foundational technology decisions, build the product, and mentor our internal AI team as we grow.

What You'll Do

Define the Technical Direction

• Evaluate and select the technology stack — frameworks, libraries, infrastructure
• Decide where to leverage existing tools (LangChain, Playwright, Puppeteer, etc.) vs. build custom
• Document and justify architectural decisions for long-term maintainability
• Balance speed-to-market with scalability and technical debt

Build the Product

• Design and develop the full application: frontend, backend, APIs, and database
• Integrate AI agents with active learning capabilities into the core product
• Implement secure authentication, role-based access, and audit logging
• Create deployment pipelines and infrastructure for production reliability

Architect for Scale

• Design systems that support growth from early customers to enterprise scale
• Build clean, maintainable code that a team can extend
• Implement monitoring, logging, and error-handling from the start
• Create documentation that enables future team members to contribute quickly

Lead & Mentor

• Guide our internal AI team on best practices and development workflows
• Conduct code reviews and establish engineering standards
• Collaborate with our domain consultants who provide business logic requirements

What You Bring

Must Have

• 5+ years of full stack development experience
• Proven track record of making architectural decisions on production systems
• Experience evaluating, selecting, and integrating third-party frameworks and libraries
• Strong proficiency across the stack — frontend, backend, APIs, databases
• Hands-on experience with AI/ML integration — LLMs, agent frameworks, or building AI-powered features
• Experience with cloud platforms and modern deployment practices
• Ability to articulate tradeoffs and justify technical decisions to non-technical stakeholders

Nice to Have

• Experience building AI agents with active learning or feedback loops
• Familiarity with browser automation tools (Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium)
• Background in enterprise software or B2B products
• Previous founding engineer or early-stage startup experience
• Familiarity with SAP integrations or ERP systems

Our Expectations on Technology Choices

We're not prescribing a stack. We expect you to:

• Assess our product requirements and recommend the right tools
• Explain tradeoffs between building custom vs. using existing frameworks
• Choose technologies that balance MVP speed with production readiness
• Avoid over-engineering while preventing costly rewrites later

You'll have autonomy — and accountability — for these decisions.

What We Offer

• Ownership of a product from the ground up
• Autonomy to define the technical architecture
• Direct impact — your decisions shape the company's foundation
• Customers already lined up; this is building, not experimenting
• Collaboration with experienced domain consultants
• [Add: compensation, equity, remote policy, etc.]
