Use AI coding tools to accelerate development, verify their output, and collaborate through clear decisions, demos, and code reviews.
What We're Looking For
Proficiency in TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, and PostgreSQL.
Experience shipping and maintaining products across frontend and backend, including production-scale backend systems.
Experience designing APIs and web services and building customer-facing web application features.

Experience using AI tools to build agents or AI-powered features, and using AI coding tools with care and verification.
Based in or relocating to New York City, with availability to work in the office three days per week.
Experience in creator marketing or e-commerce, or experience at a large technology company, is relevant background.
