We are a company like no other – we believe in making small bets, failing fast, and being better together. We are looking for creative problem‑solvers who obsess about the customer to find wins across different industries. We don’t hire for fit; we hire to add. We are looking for people who play our core values of being: Agile, Gritty Humble, and Happy. If you’re passionate about AI/ML, thrive in a dynamic environment, and want to work with a diverse team of wickedly smart people, we want to hear from you! We are looking for a Full Stack Software Engineer who builds software in an AI-native way — someone who treats Claude and the latest agentic coding tools as a core part of their craft, not a novelty. In this role, you will contribute to the technical delivery of ML-powered applications across cloud services, APIs, and modern front-end frameworks, with Claude Code, the Claude API, and agentic workflows woven into how you design, build, and ship. You will be an active contributor within your project pod, shipping features end-to-end, participating in technical design discussions, and growing your ability to translate business requirements into well-engineered solutions. You will take ownership of your work – writing clean, reviewable code, contributing to shared internal frameworks, and continuously developing your fluency with AI-assisted development. You will thrive in this role if you are a builder who leans on Claude Code to move fast without cutting corners. You write clear specs, review AI-generated code critically, and know when to delegate to an agent versus when to handcraft. You are curious about where LLMs fit (and where they don’t), and you bring a practical, evidence-based instinct to that question.What You’ll DoFull Stack Feature DeliveryImplement features end-to-end across front-end, back-end, and cloud infrastructure layers, taking ownership from design through deploymentBuild and integrate RESTful APIs and cloud-hosted services, primarily on Azure, following established architecture patterns and security standardsDevelop front-end components using modern JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks, with attention to usability, performance, and maintainabilityWrite unit, integration, and API tests as a standard part of delivery – not an afterthought – using frameworks appropriate to the stack (xUnit, Pytest, Postman, or similar)Use Docker for local development, environment parity, and containerized deploymentsManage work in Git with clean branching, meaningful commit history, and effective collaboration with AI agents in the same workflowLLM Feature DevelopmentBuild features that incorporate LLM calls via the Claude API or Azure OpenAI, including prompt design, context management, response handling, and cost-aware API usageImplement RAG components and tool integrations as part of product features, working within established architecture patterns and contributing to their evolutionWrite evaluation harnesses for LLM-powered features: regression tests for prompt behaviour, output quality checks, and agent tool use validationDocument LLM feature behaviour clearly: what the system does, what it does not do, known failure modes, and the guardrails in placeDevelop growing awareness of when LLM-in-the-loop is the right architecture decision versus a conventional software approach – and contribute that perspective in design discussionsTechnical Design & Problem-SolvingParticipate actively in epic-level and feature-level design discussions, contributing well-reasoned proposals backed by research or prototype evidenceUse Claude to accelerate technical research: explore design alternatives, evaluate libraries, and investigate unfamiliar domains quickly – then synthesize findings into a clear recommendationIdentify and flag technical risks within your work scope early,



with enough supporting detail for the tech lead or architect to make an informed decisionProduce clear technical documentation: decision records, implementation notes, and design summaries that a future team member can act onAI-Native DevelopmentUse Claude Code and AI-assisted development tools (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and similar) as a standard part of the engineering workflow – for prototyping, code generation, refactoring, documentation, and debuggingWrite clear, well-structured prompts and development specs that enable AI agents to produce useful, reviewable output – not vague instructions that generate noiseReview AI-generated code with the same rigour as human-authored code: check for correctness, edge cases, security issues, and maintainability before mergingDevelop growing fluency in agentic development patterns: structuring repos for agent navigation, decomposing tasks into agent-friendly units, and knowing when human authorship is the right callContribute to internal discussions on AI tooling effectiveness – share what is working, what isn’t, and help refine the team’s approachCollaboration & GrowthParticipate in code reviews constructively – give specific, actionable feedback and incorporate peer feedback into your own work without defensivenessCollaborate closely with ML engineers, data engineers, and product managers within the pod, understanding adjacent work well enough to minimize integration frictionContribute reusable components, utilities, and internal skills to AltaML’s shared librariesEngage in sprint ceremonies, stand-ups, and retrospectives as an active team member – raise blockers early, communicate progress clearly, and contribute to continuous improvementProactively seek feedback from peers and tech leads to accelerate your own growth toward senior-level ownership and technical leadershipWhat You BringDegree or equivalent work experience in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical discipline3-5 years of professional full stack development experience, with a track record of shipping production features end-to-endHands‑on, daily-driver experience using Claude (Claude Code, claude.Ai, or the Claude API), Cursor, or GitHub Copilot for real software engineering work – not just occasional useStrong working experience with cloud services, ideally Azure (Functions, App Service, Blob Storage, Azure OpenAI, or similar)Proficiency in a modern object‑oriented language – C#, Python, TypeScript, or equivalent – with a clear point of view on writing clean, maintainable codeExperience building and consuming RESTful APIs and integrating third‑party servicesSolid front‑end experience with a modern JavaScript/TypeScript framework (React, Vue, Angular, or similar)Experience writing unit and API tests as a standard part of delivery (xUnit, Pytest, Postman, or similar)Comfortable with Docker for local development and containerized deploymentsProficiency with Git, including working effectively in a branch‑based workflow alongside AI agentsExperience working in an Agile environment with iterative delivery cyclesStrong written and verbal communication skills – able to articulate technical decisions clearly to peers and participate confidently in client‑facing discussionsNice to Have'sExperience integrating LLM APIs (Claude, OpenAI, Azure OpenAI) into product features, including prompt design and cost managementExposure to RAG architectures, vector databases, or tool‑augmented LLM workflowsFamiliarity with agentic frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph, Autogen, or similar)Experience writing evaluation harnesses or regression tests for LLM‑powered featuresExposure to CI/CD pipelines and automated deployment workflows (Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions,
