Job Description

Founding team of a new AI-first product line

Function: Full Stack + Applied AI | Product Engineering | 0→1 ML Features

We’re helping a fast-growing developer tools company—trusted by millions of developers globally—hire a Senior Applied AI Engineer for a newly formed product team. The team’s mission is to build AI-powered capabilities that help developers instantly diagnose and resolve production issues. Think intelligent debugging copilots and smart, real-time dashboards—built from the ground up.

This is a high-ownership, 0→1 role working directly with a repeat founder and early technical team. You’ll ship intelligent, user-facing features and help define the technical and product foundation for the org.

Responsibilities:

  • Design, prototype, and deploy AI-powered product features from scratch
  • Work with Product and Design to identify high-impact use cases for LLMs and ML
  • Own the fullstack implementation (frontend, backend, infra) of ML-powered workflows
  • Rapidly iterate and launch experiments to production
  • Stay on top of the AI ecosystem—new models, tools, APIs—and bring the best ideas in
  • Mentor engineers and shape the AI roadmap for the team

Ideal Profile:

  • 4–12 years of engineering experience with a strong record of shipping end-user products
  • Experience building AI-powered features using LLMs, embeddings, or similar ML tools
  • Fullstack engineering skills (React, Node.js, Python, Postgres, AWS, etc.)
  • Experience launching multiple user-facing products in collaboration with Product and Design.
  • Experience making architecture-level decisions based on scaling or other constraints.
  • Startup mindset: scrappy, hands-on, and thrives in ambiguity
  • Good product instincts and ability to work closely with cross-functional teams
  • Bonus: Experience with developer tools, debugging platforms, or observability systems

Location: Based in the SF Bay Area and open to working onsite 3x/week

This is a rare chance to build applied AI products at scale—while working in an agile, high-trust, high-impact environment. If you're excited about prototyping fast and seeing your work in the hands of thousands of users—we’d love to talk.
