AI Systems Engineer (Ruby on Rails)

About This Role

Software engineering is rapidly shifting toward AI-native development—where systems aren’t just written with AI assistance, but where AI becomes part of the architecture itself.

We're looking for an engineer who has already gone deep into building with AI.

You may not have spent a decade writing Ruby on Rails—but you’ve likely spent countless hours experimenting with LLMs, building tools, automating workflows, or exploring what AI-native software development could look like.

If you’re the kind of person who can’t stop building with AI, we want to talk.

What You'll Do

• Build and ship production features in Ruby on Rails.
• Design and prototype AI-powered tools, workflows, and systems.
• Explore how AI can fundamentally change how software is built and operated.
• Experiment rapidly and turn promising ideas into production systems.
• Work closely with senior engineers while helping push the team forward in AI capabilities.

What We're Looking For

Ruby / Engineering Fundamentals

• ~2–3 years of professional software engineering experience.
• Experience building applications with Ruby on Rails.
• Solid understanding of APIs, databases, and backend systems.

You don’t need to be a Rails expert yet—but you should be comfortable building real applications.

Strong AI Builder Mindset

You’ve spent significant time building with AI, not just using it to write code.

This could include:

• Building AI-powered tools or internal developer tooling
• Creating AI-driven workflows or automation
• Experimenting with LLM APIs, agents, or prompt pipelines
• Integrating AI into applications or systems

What matters most is that you’ve already been exploring what AI-native software development looks like.

What Will Stand Out

• Side projects involving AI-powered systems or tools
• Open-source AI experiments
• Creative uses of LLM APIs or AI automation
• Building tools that change how software gets built

We care far more about things you've built than specific frameworks.

Our Stack

• Ruby on Rails
• StimulusJS / Hotwire
• PostgreSQL
• Background job systems
• Modern LLM APIs and AI tooling

Why Join

We're a team that believes the way software is built is changing quickly.

Instead of simply using AI to code faster, we’re interested in rethinking how software gets designed, built, and operated in an AI-native world.

This role is an opportunity to experiment, build, and shape that future.
