About the role

Software Engineer designing and shipping the first version of an AI-first fleet operations product at a clean energy company. Owning the work end-to-end while utilizing AI tools as the main workflow.

Responsibilities

Designing and shipping the first version of our fleet operations product
Owning the work end-to-end: APIs, UI, deployment, monitoring, the on-call rotation
Actually using AI tools as your main way of working. Not just code completion. Architecture exploration, testing, debugging, writing docs, all of it
Being open about what works and what doesn't, so the rest of the team can learn from what you're finding
Working closely with your PM, with customer outcomes in front of every decision

Roughly 3 to 6 years of professional experience
You've shipped backend services in production. We work in Python. If your background is mostly elsewhere (Go, Ruby, Java, Node, you name it), strong fundamentals and a history of picking up new stacks is what we're looking for.
You've worked with a modern JS/TS framework: Next.js, React, Vue, Svelte. We're not looking for specialists.
You can tell us about a time you picked up something unfamiliar and shipped real work with it.
You use AI tools as part of how you actually work, and you can talk about it specifically. What's your workflow? Where does it shine? Where does it fall down? What have you stopped doing because of it? What have you started?
You take the unglamorous stuff seriously: logging, testing, docs, deployment hygiene. Not because someone made you, but because you've felt the cost of cutting corners on it.
You've owned something end-to-end before, somewhere. At a job, on the side, on a contract. You know what it's like to be the one responsible for the whole thing.
You write clearly. You'll be running an experiment as much as building a product, and what you document matters.
