What You’ll Do

  • Build new, customer-facing products and platform services from the ground up across the full stack — from data and APIs through to the experiences customers touch.
  • Work AI-natively: use modern AI tooling to prototype, generate, test, and ship features across many different areas and surfaces at a pace traditional teams can’t match.
  • Partner directly with product, design, business, and external supply/partner contacts — translating real-world business needs into technical solutions and owning them end-to-end.
  • Lead a portfolio of fast-moving projects and help set the engineering bar for a new team, mentoring others and raising the standard for AI-accelerated delivery.
  • Make pragmatic architecture decisions for systems that need to scale quickly and reliably as the vertical grows.
  • Utilize programming languages like JavaScript (Angular, React, Node), HTML/CSS, TypeScript and Java, open source frameworks, RESTful web services, and work on cross-browser and cross-device development
