About The Position

We're looking for a senior full-stack engineer to build product across the Nomic platform. You'll work on the interfaces, APIs, and backend systems that enterprise customers and developers use daily — from our web application to our Developer API. Most of your day-to-day coding will involve directing and managing AI coding agents. We're not interested in people who are curious about this — we need someone already doing it, with the architectural judgment to use it effectively. That means knowing how to decompose work for agents, reviewing output with a critical eye, maintaining codebase coherence when code is being generated at speed, and never letting velocity become an excuse for slop. The bar is engineering excellence: clean architecture, thoughtful abstractions, code that other people can work in.

Requirements

5+ years of professional software engineering experience
Strong full-stack skills — you're comfortable owning frontend and backend
Production experience with Python and TypeScript
Active, intentional use of AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, etc.) — not as a novelty but as your primary workflow
Good instincts for API design, data modeling, and system architecture
You write code that's clear, tested, and easy to change — whether you typed it or an agent did
You care about the end-user experience, not just the implementation
