AI-Native Senior Full Stack Software Engineer

Job Title: AI-Native Senior Full Stack Software Engineer

Work Location: San Jose CA or RTP NC-Hybrid

Contract duration: Long term contract

Visa: / Only

Job Description:

You've made the shift from being an experienced, effective software engineer to being an AI-native one:

•             You have proven experience serving as a software engineer for web application projects, hosted On-Premise and Cloud, supporting a large customer base.

•             You treat performance as a design constraint, not a tuning pass after the fact.

•             You know when to build and when to buy — you can justify choosing a custom-built solution over an off-the-shelf or cloud-native service.

•             You think in systems and evaluate designs critically — whether reviewing AI-generated code or your own architecture — catching the subtle bug, security gap, or design choice that won't hold up under load or misuse.

•             You use spec-driven development with AI as your default way of engineering software.

•             You pick up new tools and approaches quickly, since the effective way to work with AI changes often, and you'd rather adapt early than fall behind.

•             You are decisive without being divisive — you can analytically weigh trade-offs, balance competing priorities, and drive decisions that span organizational boundaries.

•             You have excellent communication and organization skills.

Minimum Qualifications

•             BS or MS degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field, or demonstrated equivalent experience.

•             Demonstrated fluency in leveraging AI technologies across the entire software development lifecycle, including breaking down user stories into actionable tasks, AI-assisted coding and testing, automated defect resolution, and deployment of fully tested software.

•             Server-side software development experience with Python, Java, NodeJS, and/or other similar technologies; client-side web application development experience using React, Backbone, native JavaScript, and/or other comparable technologies.

•             Expertise in building secure, large-scale systems using fault-tolerant technologies (such as Elasticsearch, CockroachDB, Oracle, MongoDB & Kafka); experience with building and deploying with cloud-native technologies.

•             CISSP/CCSP or similar certification useful.
