Senior Software Engineer, AI

$240,000–$300,000 + Equity

New York, NY (Onsite)

Find out if this opportunity is a good fit by reading all of the information that follows below.

We're partnering with a fast-growing AI infrastructure startup that's building products at the forefront of autonomous software. They're looking for a Senior Software Engineer who thrives in ambiguity, enjoys shipping quickly, and wants to shape the next generation of AI-powered developer tools.

The Role

As a Software Engineer, you'll own products end-to-end—from technical design and backend architecture through to polished user experiences. You'll work closely with customers, rapidly iterate on feedback, and help define how AI-native products are built.

What You'll Do

  • Own features from concept through production across the full stack.
  • Design scalable APIs, data models, and intuitive frontend experiences.
  • Partner directly with customers to gather feedback and drive rapid iteration.
  • Collaborate with design and engineering to deliver high-quality product experiences.
  • Make technical decisions in ambiguous environments and drive execution independently.
  • Raise the engineering bar through strong ownership and craftsmanship.

What You'll Bring

  • Proven experience shipping customer-facing products end-to-end.
  • Deep knowledge of React and modern web application architecture.
  • Experience working in fast-paced startup environments.
  • Excellent communication skills and a customer-first mindset.
  • Passion for AI-native products and leveraging AI throughout your development workflow.

Ideal Background

  • AI-native startups, developer tools, infrastructure, or SaaS products.
  • Experience building products with high ownership and minimal direction.
  • Comfortable working directly with users and rapidly iterating based on feedback.

Why Join?

  • Build category-defining AI products from the ground up.
  • High ownership and autonomy with direct product impact.
  • Work alongside an ambitious, highly technical team.
  • Competitive compensation, meaningful equity, and excellent benefits.
  • Opportunity to influence engineering culture and product direction as the company scales. xhyhwjd
