😎 About You
You’re a seasoned full‑stack engineer with 6+ years of experience, comfortable building and scaling production‑grade applications. You stay ahead of the curve on AI trends and model capabilities, and you know how to move fast without sacrificing quality. You’re confident in your skills but humble.
What You Bring
- Deep experience with TypeScript
- Proven ability to ship complex products end‑to‑end
- A track record of working with AI/ML APIs or tools (OpenAI, Gemini, etc.)
- Strong product sense and a collaborative mindset
Bonus Points
- Familiarity with prompt engineering and LLM evaluation strategies
- Experience building ed‑tech or productivity tools
- Seed/pre‑seed‑stage tech startup work
- Building learning tools or similar projects (HUGE bonus)
You’re really smart (solving hard problems, learning quickly, attention to detail, love for product iteration, skilled prioritizer, action‑biased), mission‑driven (you care deeply about your work), and you think like a founder (you notice problems and fix them, occasional late‑night hackathons don’t scare you, and your finish line is users getting meaningful value).
✨ What You’ll Do
As a Senior Software Engineer on our AI Integrations team, you’ll contribute to the development of our AI‑powered e‑learning generator that transforms raw content into interactive, instructionally sound lessons. You’ll architect and refine intelligent workflows that serve as the backbone of our next‑gen authoring‑tool agents.
Every month, you’ll experiment with cutting‑edge models from OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic, and beyond—writing evaluation harnesses, optimizing system prompts, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with LLMs in education.
Because we’re a small, scrappy team, we still operate very lean and fast‑paced. Sometimes specs or designs won’t be 100 % polished before we start building—and you probably enjoy that kind of early‑stage challenge. As Mindsmith grows, you’ll help create entirely new services and tools, becoming a major pillar in the company and influencing key product decisions.
💰 What You’ll Get
- Competitive salary + benefits
- 0.25 – 1 % equity (your choice: higher equity/lower base or vice‑versa)
- Occasional meals and perks
- A fun, supportive team
- A super‑meaningful, high‑impact job
