Applied AI Engineer- Series B $250M hyperscaler- $300,000-$350,000 + equity!

This AI startup is redefining how software gets built by automating the entire software development lifecycle with AI agents. While most tools in the market focus on the IDE such as autocomplete, suggestions, and chat, this team has moved beyond that and is building systems that can author PRs, run code reviews, debug failures, and manage deployments end to end.

At the core is a proprietary context engine that deeply understands large, complex codebases, enabling these agents to operate reliably in real enterprise environments. The market is already validating this shift, with automation products now driving more demand than the core developer tooling.

Backed by over $250M in funding and scaling from $1M to $50M in ARR in just 12 months, the company is at a critical inflection point. With a lean team of around 160 people, every new hire has a direct impact on the product and overall direction.

As an Applied AI Engineer, you will design and deploy AI systems that operate across the software development lifecycle, working hands on with LLMs and agent-based architectures to turn cutting edge capability into production systems. This role requires strong engineering fundamentals, experience applying AI or machine learning in real world environments, and the ability to operate in ambiguity while driving outcomes.

The team is based in Palo Alto and works in person in a highly collaborative, high performance environment.

Compensation ranges from $300-350K base, plus a competitive equity package and full benefits.

If you are interested in building beyond AI assisted development and into fully autonomous systems, this is an opportunity to define what comes next.
