AI Engineer Full Stack / AI-First (100% Remote)

AI-First Software Engineer / Full Stack

AI Builder  ·  Spec-Driven Development  ·  Agentic Orchestration

We're looking for engineers who want to work at the frontier of how software gets built.

As an AI-First Software Engineer — what Silicon Valley increasingly calls an AI Builder — you won't spend your day writing code line by line. You'll spend it designing robust systems, writing gap-free specifications, directing AI agents to produce production-grade code, and validating that every output meets enterprise standards. The job is architecture, not syntax.

You'll need to hold an application's entire shape in your head — from the mobile UI, through the API, down to the database and the AWS infrastructure underneath it. This is a full-stack role that uses AI to operate at a level of output conventional development can't reach.

Who We Are

As the United States’ largest light industrial staffing company and a broad workforce solutions provider, our digital-enabled approach to staffing is rooted in a rich history of delivering high-quality, scalable workforce solutions to the organizations driving the American supply chain. Our colleagues are guided by our purpose of Championing People, Unlocking Potential, and they bring this to life every day as they help put hundreds of thousands of people to work at thousands of companies across the country. The foundation of our culture is built upon a bridge to better, offering our colleagues rewarding and growth-oriented experiences that positively impact the lives of others and businesses in innovative and meaningful ways. 

What You'll Do

Architect & Specify

• Design end-to-end system architectures spanning mobile (Flutter), web (React), backend (Java/Spring Boot), and cloud infrastructure (AWS).
• Write detailed, gap-free specifications precise enough for AI agents to generate production-ready code on the first pass.
• Decompose complex features into dependency-ordered tasks optimized for agentic execution.

Orchestrate & Generate

• Direct AI coding agents (such as Claude and Claude Code) to deliver complete, working implementations.
• Run agentic workflows where AI orchestrates AI — one model designing the specification, another executing it.
• Drive rapid generate-and-validate cycles measured in minutes, not days.

Validate & Ship

• Review AI-generated code for correctness, security, and architectural alignment.
• Catch hallucinations and specification gaps early, before they compound.
• Guarantee production quality: sound error handling, consistent patterns, enterprise-grade reliability.

Evolve the Methodology

• Contribute to our AI-first development practices and documentation.
• Identify patterns that raise AI output quality and shrink iteration cycles.
• Help scale this approach across the engineering organization.

What We're Looking For

Required

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with principal-level depth in at least one domain (mobile, web frontend, backend services, or infrastructure).
• Full-stack literacy — you can read, understand, and validate code across Flutter/Dart, React/TypeScript, Java/Spring Boot, SQL, and cloud infrastructure, even where you haven't shipped production code in all of them.
• Systems thinking — you instinctively trace how a UI change ripples to the API, the schema, query performance, and production behavior.
• Exceptional written communication — you can write a 500-line technical specification with zero ambiguity. Precision in language is a core engineering skill here.
• Fast pattern recognition — you spot wrong code, missing edge cases, and architectural problems in seconds, not hours.
• AI fluency — you're already comfortable building with AI agents and want to push how far the approach goes.
• Comfort with ambiguity and rapid change — this is a new way of working, and you'll help define it.

Preferred

• Enterprise software experience (staffing, HR tech, workforce management, or similar domains).
• Hands-on use of agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or similar).
• Mobile development background (Flutter, React Native, or native iOS/Android).
• Microservices architecture and API design.
• AWS experience (EKS, RDS, MSK/Kafka, Lambda, or similar).
• A track record in small, high-output teams.

What Success Looks Like

First 30 Days

• Complete onboarding on our AI-first methodology, tooling, and existing codebase.
• Pair with the team on active development to learn the orchestration workflow.
• Ship your first feature end-to-end using the methodology.

First 90 Days

• Independently architect and deliver multi-screen features with full backend integration.
• Contribute improvements to our specification templates and development practices.
• Validate and ship at the pace the methodology enables — features in hours, not sprints.

First Year

• Own major application modules or entire microservices.
• Help onboard and train new AI Builders as the team grows.
• Drive methodology documentation and tooling forward.

Why This Role Is Different

Traditional job descriptions list required languages and frameworks because, traditionally, those determined what a developer could build. In AI-driven development the constraint moves: the agent handles syntax, so the skills that matter are clear conceptual thinking, precise specification, and fast validation.

We want engineers who understand why frameworks like Flutter and Spring exist — not just that they do, but when each pattern is the right one and how to spot where AI-generated code went wrong. Knowing every API detail matters less than judging when and why a given approach fits.

If conventional development timelines have always felt like a cage — if you know exactly how a system should work but resent being slowed to typing speed — this role lets you work at the pace of thought instead.
