Senior Software Engineer.

About the company

Our client is a software company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Ship product features that weave machine intelligence into a software platform, collaborating with design and subject-matter specialists in a small, flat team. The work is hands-on and product-driven, with emphasis on sound technical judgment, data connectivity and mentoring colleagues.

What you'll do

- Deliver new product functionality from the ground up, releasing often and making pragmatic trade-offs.

- Architect features powered by large language models so they can be extended, reused and scaled.

- Work with subject-matter specialists to turn their methods and knowledge into polished conversational agent experiences.

- Build reusable, scalable pipelines and integrations that move data between the platform and third-party tools.

- Mentor teammates on data and AI practices through code reviews, peer guidance and informal knowledge sharing.

Requirements

What we're looking for

- Roughly 8 to 10 years of software engineering experience, including data-driven products released to production and used by real people.

- A track record of adding AI features to shipped products, coming from a product-focused engineering path rather than research or data engineering.

- A refined, repeatable approach to working with AI coding assistants, including how to check their output and automate more of the workflow.

- Hands-on server-side web development experience and ease working in flexible scripting languages.

- Familiarity with event-driven design and conventional web frameworks is a plus.

- Flexibility across technology stacks; web, full-stack and back-end backgrounds are all welcome.

- Well-formed views on data architecture and system design, such as search and data processing.

- Strong analytical thinking and the ability to explain technical decisions clearly.

- Startup experience, a strong sense of ownership and comfort with ambiguity, candid feedback and quick decisions.

- Enthusiasm for raising the standard of the whole team.

- A mission-driven outlook and an energetic, collaborative style.

Bonus points

- Prior experience founding a company.

- Senior leaders who want to return to hands-on individual contributor work.
