Software Engineer

What You'll Do

• Design, build, and maintain web applications, APIs, backend services, and lambdas for the Loop product line. Match the level of rigor to the stakes. Craftsmanship doesn't mean polish everywhere; it means fit for purpose.
• Start with the agent, not the editor. Invest time in planning and intent articulation; the quality of your prompt is the quality of your output.
• Review AI-generated code with the same rigor you'd apply to any code. Plausible is not the same as correct.
• Include meaningful test coverage in every PR and contribute to a healthy CI/CD process.
• Collaborate closely with engineers, product managers, and designers. Don't wait for someone else to make the connection; own the outcome in ambiguity.
• Exhibit ownership: done means stable in merchant hands, not just merged. Flag risks early, make reversible decisions fast, and iterate.
• Make the system around you more effective, not just your own output. Whether that's raising the quality bar in code review, surfacing a pattern you're seeing in support tickets, or flagging a cross-team dependency early, contributing beyond your immediate scope is part of the job at every level.

Your Experience

• 2-4+ years building web applications, backend services, or APIs.
• You use AI agents as your default starting point and can describe your actual workflow: how you plan a task, prompt an agent, evaluate the output, and decide where to spend your review time.
• You've caught AI-generated code that looked right but wasn't. You treat it the same as code from any other source: you own what ships, regardless of how it was generated.
• You have a point of view on where AI helps and where it gets engineers into trouble, and you can speak to both from real experience.
• Experience with PHP/Laravel, AWS Serverless, or Vue.js is a strong plus, but not required.
• You care about well-tested, reliable software and have worked in agile, CI/CD environments.
• You operate with intensity and hold a high bar; for your own work and for the people around you. You give direct feedback, ask for help early, and respond to setbacks with ownership rather than withdrawal.
• You can share examples of learning from mistakes, asking for help, and growing through feedback.
