Software Engineer (New Grad)

About the role

You'll build Traba's product on top of AI agents—taking frontier models and existing agents and putting them to work across our staffing marketplace to automate the pipeline that sources, vets, matches, and places workers on millions of shifts. This is a product-engineering role first, so you'll go where the priorities are: some weeks that's wiring up an agent that automates vetting or matching, others it's a payments flow or UI work. You'll join the founding team, partner with our CTO on the product roadmap, own product decisions, and help build our foundational tech platform.

Responsibilities

• Apply existing agents and frontier models across the stack—worker app, business app, ops platform, marketplace—to automate vetting, matching, and fulfillment.
• Write and review high-quality code across our React Native app, React/TypeScript web apps, and Node.js/PostgreSQL APIs.
• Architect core systems—from real-time matching to autonomous worker-vetting pipelines powered by ML and agents.
• Partner with design to ship polished, intuitive UIs.

Requirements

• A recent degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, with exposure to TypeScript, React/React Native, Node.js, and/or PostgreSQL.
• Internship experience in an engineering environment, showcasing your ability to navigate ambiguity and initiate action.
• Experience integrating LLMs or agents into real product—prompting, tool wiring—or a clear drive to learn.
• Comfort in an early-stage team: ambiguity, self-direction, and fast iteration.

Qualifications

• Voracious learner. You explore new languages and frameworks happily, and can talk product with a designer one minute and infrastructure with a tech lead the next.
• Strong front-end chops. You have experience with (or a real desire to learn) React Native, and you love building performant apps users enjoy.

Skills

• Front-end development skills, particularly React Native.
• Experience with TypeScript, React/React Native, Node.js, and PostgreSQL.
• Ability to integrate and apply frontier models and existing agents into real-world product solutions.
