About the Role
[Employer hidden] is the upskilling platform for AI and Tech adoption. We are doubling down on our AI strategy with the launch of our AI Adoption Platform. This squad operates as a foundational "startup" within the business. Our MVP has already demonstrated 10x adoption results in initial pilots—now we’re building the engine to scale it to the world. As a Software Engineer in this squad, you won’t just be a "junior" developer; you’ll be a foundational builder in a greenfield environment, learning directly from senior experts as we define the future of work. We move fast. In your first 6 months, you will: Ship Real Features: Ship production-ready code across the backend and frontend (Typescript, NodeJS, React). Design MVP and Scale: Learn and contribute to build a product from the beginning. Own Your Craft: Go deep on modern engineering practices, from writing clean, testable code to understanding how our AWS infrastructure supports our users.
Your Impact:
- Reliable Delivery: You take ownership of small-to-medium tasks, delivering high-quality code that is well-tested and readable
- Active Learner: You treat every code review as a masterclass. You are proactive in seeking feedback and are constantly leveling up your technical skills
- Collaboration: You engage actively in squad ceremonies, pairing with senior engineers to solve complex problems and contributing to technical discussions
- Operational Awareness: You help maintain our platform’s health, learning how to monitor logs and participate in the "build it, run it" culture
Operating Principles in Action:
- Solve for Customer Value: You don't just "complete tickets." You ask, "How will this specific button or API change make the user's experience better?"
- Drivers, Not Passengers: If you see a bug or a confusing piece of documentation, you fix it. You don't wait for permission to make our codebase better
- Be Decisive, Even in Ambiguity: You aren't afraid to try a solution, even if you aren't 100% sure it's perfect. We value "learning by doing" over over-analysis
- AI to Deliver Outcomes: You are an AI-native engineer. You use tools like Cursor, Claude, or GitHub Copilot to accelerate your learning and boost your coding velocity
Who you are
- The Foundational Builder: 1-2 years of experience (or equivalent through high-intensity bootcamps/projects) working with TypeScript, React, or Python
- Curiosity & Agency: You are the person who figures out why a deployment failed or how a new framework works
- Problem-Solving Core: You have a solid grasp of computer science fundamentals and a passion for building clean, user-centric interfaces
- Team Player: You enjoy pairing, sharing what you’ve learned, and growing alongside a high-performing team
If you have 1 year of experience but a 10x appetite for learning, we want to see your application. Ou don't need to check every single box to apply.
