Senior Software EngineerLocation: New York, NY (Hybrid) |
Type: Full-Time |
Reports to: Head of Revenue
The RoleWe'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.
What You'll Work On- Product features end-to-end - UI through API through data layer
- Backend services in Python and TypeScript
- Frontend in React/TypeScript
- APIs that serve both our product and external developers
- Integration points with our AI and agent systems
What We're Looking For- 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
Even better if you have:- Experience building developer-facing products or APIs
- Familiarity with AI/ML systems - embeddings, retrieval, model integration
- Background in enterprise software or B2B products
What We Offer- Competitive base salary and performance-based compensation
- Equity participation
- Medical, dental, and vision coverage
- Flexible PTO
- Hybrid NYC work model (3 days in office)
- High-visibility role on a small team
