Salary

USD 320,000 - 405,000

Requirements

Skills

  • 8+ years of relevant experience as a Fullstack or product engineer, with a track record of leading complex, multi-month projects or teams as a tech lead or equivalent
  • Shipped LLM-native features or applications
  • Derive joy from hard work and the act of creation
  • Experienced enough to build big features independently, and make great architectural decisions along the way
  • Self-sufficient end-to-end: you can go from idea to production without needing a designer, PM, or architect to unblock you
  • Move fast without cutting corners: you hold a high quality bar and know how to make smart tradeoffs under time pressure
  • Engage directly with users and criticism: you’re comfortable talking to internal customers, hearing hard feedback, and incorporating it quickly
  • Genuinely mission-driven: you care about the intersection of AI and people practices, not just the technical puzzle
  • Collaborative, supportive teammate: you bring people along, communicate clearly about tradeoffs, and make the people around you better
  • Familiarity with MCP (Model Context Protocol) or prior experience building Claude or LLM integrations in production
  • Background at an AI-native company or in a product-focused 0‑>1 engineering environment
  • Experience with HR tech platforms such as Greenhouse, Workday, or Rippling

Responsibilities

  • Build full-stack end-to-end across the People Products portfolio
  • Design and implement AI-native workflows: build tools, evals, prompts, and products
  • Work directly with internal stakeholders—HR teams, recruiters, managers—to understand problems, gather feedback, and iterate quickly without waiting for requirements to be handed down
  • Make product and architecture decisions independently in a low-structure environment
  • Contribute ideas for how the team works, what it builds, and where applied AI can have the most leverage in people workflows
