Senior Software Engineer – AI Systems & Backend
We are building an AI-powered back office for the skilled trades, starting with the $50B+ HVAC industry. We have strong traction and recently closed a $5M seed round to expand our engineering and product organization, as well as add additional services. We’re looking for a senior engineer to own and evolve the backend and AI systems that power our core workflows.
What you’ll build:
- Integrations & ingestion: pull data from third-party systems (APIs / webhooks / files)
- AI workflows in production: tool-using agents, RAG / search, classification / extraction, human-in-the-loop flows
- Evals & monitoring: regression tests for prompts / workflows, quality metrics, drift detection, cost / latency tracking
- Scalable systems: queues and orchestration, retries, data modeling, API design to support rapid iteration
- Security & privacy: strong auth controls and safe handling of sensitive data
Responsibilities:
- Analyze requirements and propose AI-native solutions to technical problems
- Write clean, scalable code
- Test and deploy features and services
- Optimize AI system performance
- Respond to critical system issues and ensure reliability
- Mentor team members and collaborate across teams
- Understand user needs and solve design challenges creatively
- This is a remote role. Minimum 4 hours overlap with the team (11am–3pm ET).
Qualifications:
- Senior-level backend experience (typically 5+ years) shipping production systems you’ve owned
- Strong proficiency in a typed backend language (TypeScript preferred; comparable experience welcome)
- Hands-on experience with LLM-powered features, prompting, optimization, and AI architectures (RAG, reranking, etc.)
- Experience with infrastructure as code, cloud, and CI/CD systems
- Deep understanding of a modern web and AI stack
- Comfort using AI coding tools to build quickly and at scale
Nice to have:
- Experience with workflow automation tools
- Domain experience with back-office or skilled-trade workflows
- Mobile development experience (Expo and/or React Native)
- Strong experience with AWS and core services
