Why this role exists

Our client is an AI-native staffing company building internal software that powers rapid growth and automation. They move quickly, automate aggressively and build their own systems when existing tools are not good enough. It is a lean, engineering-driven team that ships fast and values outcomes over process.

What you'll own

• Candidate sourcing, enrichment, scoring and outreach systems that drive growth
• Signal-driven workflows that turn data into automated actions
• Reliable systems connecting APIs, databases, LLMs and internal tools
• Automation of onboarding and repetitive internal operations
• Rapid prototypes and new products and experiments, shipped with modern development tools
• Ambiguous business problems, turned into a decision on what to build without detailed specs
• Iteration on systems based on real user feedback and outcomes

Why this is interesting

• You own projects from idea to production and iteration
• AI coding tools are core to how you work
• You ship systems the team uses every day

What we're looking for

• 2+ years of software engineering experience building products used by real users
• Strong with Python and/or TypeScript, APIs, databases and modern web development
• Highly effective with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or similar AI coding tools
• Comfortable with LLM APIs, agents, webhooks and third-party integrations
• Strong product instincts: you ship quickly and care about outcomes over perfection
• Work independently with minimal supervision
• English C1, written and spoken

Bonus

• Experience building internal tools, growth systems or recruiting technology
• Scraping, enrichment, outbound infrastructure or agentic workflows
• You have launched a product yourself or worked at an early-stage startup

What success looks like

First 90 days

You have shipped multiple systems the team uses every day, eliminated meaningful manual work through automation and integration, and built at least one workflow or product that directly improves candidate acquisition, operations or growth.

Ongoing

You consistently ship new features and systems the team relies on, own projects from conception through production and iteration, and use AI coding tools to keep high velocity without sacrificing quality.
