Senior AI-Native Full-Stack Engineer
Location: Minnesota (MN)
Experience: 10+
Role Overview
We are seeking a senior full-stack engineer who uses AI coding agents as the primary method of software development. This is not a traditional keyboard-first or backend-focused role. The engineer will direct tools such as Codex, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, and enterprise-approved ChatGPT to design, build, test, document, and deliver production software.
The role emphasizes user-facing application development, AI-native delivery, Agile execution, and close collaboration with business stakeholders. The engineer should also be comfortable operating in a lightweight Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) capacity—turning ambiguous business needs into prototypes, specifications, working software, and production-ready solutions.
Required Skills and Attributes
• 7+ years of professional software engineering or software delivery experience.
• 4+ years of full-stack application development experience, with an emphasis on modern user experiences and end-to-end feature delivery.
• Demonstrated production use of AI development tools such as Codex, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, or comparable coding agents.
• An AI-first development mindset, using agents for implementation rather than relying primarily on manual coding.
• Ability to create specifications, provide effective context, decompose work, review generated output, and redirect AI agents when results are incomplete.
• Strong experience with React, Angular, or a comparable modern front-end framework.
• Proficiency with JavaScript ES6+, TypeScript, HTML, and CSS.
• Working experience with middle-tier services, including REST APIs, application integration, data access, and service orchestration.
• Familiarity with Java 17+, Spring Boot, or comparable middle-tier technologies; deep backend specialization is not required.
• Experience with relational or NoSQL databases such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, or Cosmos DB.
• Experience with Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud and automated CI/CD delivery.
• 5+ years delivering software in Agile or Scrum environments.
• Ability to translate business outcomes into stories, acceptance criteria, specifications, and AI-executable tasks.
