• Experience working directly with enterprise customers, technical stakeholders, or non-technical business users.

• Excellent written and verbal English communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts and tradeoffs clearly.

• Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and a high level of ownership over projects and outcomes.

• Demonstrated experience using advanced AI coding tools or coding agents as a meaningful part of daily software development.

• Ability to critically assess AI-generated implementations, identify subtle technical issues, and take responsibility for the final quality of the code.

• Strong understanding of software engineering fundamentals, including testing, debugging, security, reliability, maintainability, and production operations.

• Previous experience as a founding engineer or early-stage startup engineer is an advantage.

• Experience in forward-deployed engineering, solutions engineering, implementation, or technical consulting is a plus.

• Experience integrating enterprise platforms such as SAP, NetSuite, Salesforce, Snowflake, Microsoft 365, Slack, or contract lifecycle management systems is valuable.

• Experience building enterprise AI products, workflow automation platforms, or AI-enabled SaaS products is advantageous.

• Familiarity with coordinating multiple AI coding agents or parallel AI-assisted development workflows is a strong advantage.

• Public projects, open-source contributions, or code samples demonstrating strong engineering practices are welcome.

• Ability to bring structure, technical maturity, and effective engineering practices to a small and rapidly growing team.

Benefits:

• Competitive annual compensation targeting approximately USD $100,000–$140,000 , with flexibility for exceptional candidates up to approximately $200,000.

• Fully remote working arrangement, with Europe preferred and exceptional candidates potentially considered globally.

• Contractor or contract-to-hire employment structure.

• High degree of autonomy and meaningful ownership over architecture, implementation, and technical direction.

• Opportunity to work on an enterprise-ready AI product serving procurement, legal, and sales workflows.

• Direct interaction with enterprise customers and the opportunity to influence product development based on real-world needs.

• Highly AI-native engineering environment with extensive use of modern AI coding agents and development workflows.

• Opportunity to work with modern TypeScript, AWS, serverless architecture, event-driven systems, infrastructure as code, and enterprise integrations.

• Significant influence over engineering practices and technical decisions within a small, growing team.

• Opportunity to contribute beyond individual features and help shape the product and engineering organization as it scales.

• Fast-moving environment with direct access to technical and company leadership.

• Potential to work on challenging problems at the intersection of AI, enterprise software, automation, and developer productivity.
