About the Role

Join a startup support organization's engineering team to build full-stack products for admissions, events, and internal operations. You will work closely with operational teams and own product decisions from understanding a problem through design and deployment.

What You'll Do

• Design, build, and ship applications for admissions workflows, events, and internal tools.

• Develop event systems for registration, coordination, and media handling.

• Integrate with external services such as calendars, messaging, email, and data pipelines.

• Build AI and search capabilities, including semantic search, embeddings, and natural-language interfaces.

• Automate application scheduling, notifications, status tracking, email triage, and deadline workflows.

• Create dashboards and analytics to track pipeline health and operational metrics.

• Work with partners and operations teams to improve processes and reduce manual work.

What We're Looking For

• 1 to 12 years of experience building and shipping full-stack products.

• Experience owning products end-to-end, including problem definition, user interface decisions, and deployment.

• Strong frontend and backend skills, with experience building polished interfaces and production systems.

• Experience with Rails, React, PostgreSQL, or comparable technologies; familiarity with Python, LLMs, semantic search, and embeddings is relevant.

• Recent experience building AI projects or shipping AI features.

• Startup or early-stage company experience, with the autonomy to make decisions without a predefined roadmap.

• Strong computer science fundamentals, demonstrated through education or exceptional project work.
