Software Engineer - All Levels

Genius AI•San Francisco, CA

2d•Hybrid

About The Position

Genius AI is building an agentic workforce: AI systems that act on behalf of appointment-based business owners. The company is hiring software engineers across two paths: product engineers who bring AI capabilities to customer problems and ship agentic tools for businesses, and platform engineers who build the scalable, reliable infrastructure that enables those products. Engineers are expected to make AI a default layer in their work. The role involves architecting and shipping AI-powered capabilities, building and maintaining large-scale systems, and owning work from technical design through production. The position is hybrid and requires being commutable to Genius AI’s San Francisco SOMA office. The company generally works in-office 3–4 days per week, with attendance required Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Requirements

At least 2 years of professional software engineering experience.
Demonstrated ownership of production systems, rather than only contributing to systems owned by a team.
Use AI to architect, debug, write, and review code.
Have shipped AI-powered features or systems.
Move quickly, make decisions, and be willing to ship and iterate without waiting for fully scoped tickets.
Strong analytical instincts for efficiency, scalability, and system reliability, including anticipating scale-related failures.
An entrepreneurial ownership mindset and willingness to solve assigned problems end to end.
Collaborative approach that helps improve the work of other engineers as well as personal code.
Must be commutable to the San Francisco office in SOMA and work in the hybrid environment.

Responsibilities

Architect and ship AI-powered features that create new capabilities for service businesses.

Own work end to end, from technical design through production, and take accountability for shipped work and its performance.
Build scalable, extensible platform infrastructure that helps product teams move faster and removes friction.
Identify faster approaches or better architectures, make the case for them, and drive improvements.
