Senior AI Native Software Engineer

About the role

As a Senior AI Native Software Engineer, you direct AI agents to build products and solutions, rather than writing code directly. You leverage AI coding agents to replace manual tasks, build and ship entire applications and basic agents end-to-end. You're a full-stack product builder who thinks in terms of "I need to solve this customer problem" and orchestrate AI to get there. You are measured by the speed of delivery and the robustness of what you ship, not the volume of your commits.

Responsibilities

• Build complete applications, workflow automations, and basic agents within your team's product area using AI coding agents
• Translate customer needs into buildable specifications and ship solutions from requirements through deployment
• Instrument solutions to track usage and outcomes, iterating based on what you learn
• Evaluate AI-generated output against Remitly's standards for security, privacy, reliability, and quality before shipping
• Participate in customer conversations to understand acute problems and identify automation opportunities
• Document your approaches, effective prompts, and patterns for the team

Requirements

• Proficiency with AI coding agents for end-to-end application development
• Ability to write effective prompts and iterate to achieve desired outcomes
• Understanding of full-stack applications: frontend, backend, data, and infrastructure
• Familiarity with common architectural patterns (web applications, APIs, databases, queues)
• Awareness of fundamental design principles, common UI/UX patterns, and basic product development concepts
• Ability to read and interpret basic analytics (usage metrics, conversion rates, error rates)
• Strong communication skills and a collaborative, learning-oriented mindset

Qualifications

• Experience with AI and machine learning technologies
• Experience with software development tools and methodologies
• Experience with cloud-based platforms and services
• Experience with version control systems (e.g., Git)
• Experience with continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines

Skills

• AI coding agents

• Effective communication and collaboration

Benefits

• Flexible paid time off
• Health, dental, and vision coverage
• 401(k) plan with company matching
• Paid parental, medical, military and family care leave
• Mental Health & Family Forming Benefits
• Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP)
• Continuing education

Pay

The starting base salary range for this position is typically $180,000-$225,000. In the U.S., Remitly employees are shareholders in our Company and equity is part of our total compensation plan.

Schedule

Corporate team members are expected to be in the office at least 50% of the time monthly, typically achieved by coming in three days a week. This creates a consistent, meaningful overlap that supports team norms and business needs. Managers also have the flexibility to set higher expectations based on their team's specific needs.
