At Pairwise, we are a team of engineers, operators, and builders focused on enabling the next generation of technical talent to do their best work. We partner with leading technology companies to deliver high-performance engineering solutions across embedded systems, networking, semiconductors, and software. This full-time role offers the chance to work on-site with a global leader in the technology industry, contributing to impactful, technically challenging projects in a high-caliber and fast-moving environment.

Pairwise is reinventing technical staffing from the ground up, building an AI-powered platform to handle the entire employment lifecycle - from recruiting to offboarding. We're looking for a senior full-stack engineer who thrives in high-ownership environments, takes pride in clean architecture across the stack, and wants to help shape both the product and the team as we grow.

Key Responsibilities:

• Architect and ship core product end to end.
• Design and maintain complex logic flows (Python/Django) and responsive, well-designed user interfaces (React).
• Build and refine our Applied AI layer: Own technical planning and turn high-level product goals into concrete implementation plans.
• Act as a technical lead for the team - review PRs, mentor interns and engineers, and help shape the engineering culture and standards.

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of professional engineering experience, with strong production work in both Python/Django and React.
• Deep, working understanding of databases, schema design, SQL, and data modeling. PostgreSQL preferred.
• Hands-on Applied AI experience: integrating LLMs into production applications, working with RAG, LangChain/LlamaIndex, prompt engineering, or building eval pipelines.
• A track record of taking vague requirements and shipping complete features from scratch.
• Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or another related technical field. Advanced degree (MS or PhD) is preferred.
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
• Familiarity with data science and analytics concepts.
• Experience shipping products end to end, with a strong sense for UI/UX.
• Ownership and responsibility - real impact from day one on product, technical direction, AI strategy, and the engineering culture we're building.

Pairwise offers competitive compensation and access to a range of benefits for employees, including premium PPO and HMO medical insurance coverage, dental, vision, FSA, life insurance, short/long-term disability insurance, a company-matched 401k plan, and a generous PTO policy.
