About this Role
We're looking for a full-stack engineer with 2+ years of experience who uses AI deeply and is excited about the evolving role of engineers as full-stack problem solvers, not just code writers. You should be comfortable with ambiguity, working directly with enterprise customers, and figuring out what "good" looks like in specialized domains where the answer isn't obvious. We care more about what you've done than years of experience, you should have shipped real things and done something hard, whether that's an open source project with real users, an early startup, a competitive athletic career, or something else entirely. Experience in insurance, fintech, healthcare, legal, or other regulated B2B industries is a meaningful plus.
What you'll do
- Build new AI agents and product features from scratch for a platform serving top-10 insurance carriers
- Own entire product modules end-to-end, from customer discovery and domain research to shipping production-ready AI systems
- Work directly with enterprise customers on-site to deeply understand their workflows, unstructured data, and pain points
- Design and iterate on eval frameworks to ensure AI agents produce accurate, useful outputs in highly specialized domains
- Build backends that ingest, structure, and reason over large volumes of unstructured data using LLMs
- Operate as a full-stack problem solver, writing code, conducting user research, self-educating on domain topics, and doing whatever it takes to make customers successful
