Required Skills
Backend DevelopmentFull Stack DevelopmentOAuthSaaS

Requirements

  • Demonstrated experience shipping production software (backend and/or full-stack) and owning it in production (on-call mindset, debugging, instrumentation).
  • Strong integration and systems thinking: APIs, event-driven systems, webhooks, auth (OAuth/service accounts), data modeling, idempotency, and failure modes.
  • Applied AI/LLM experience beyond prototypes: prompt+tool design, RAG and retrieval patterns, evaluation, latency/cost trade-offs, and reliability practices.
  • Ability to operate in ambiguity: you can go from problem statement to shipped solution with minimal hand-holding.
  • Clear, structured communication in writing; ability to explain trade-offs to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Experience with enterprise environments (security reviews, compliance constraints, procurement, change management).
  • Experience building with agent frameworks and/or workflow orchestration systems.
  • Familiarity with HRIS, payroll, identity/access management, or adjacent enterprise domains.
  • Experience with multi-tenant SaaS, RBAC, and data privacy by design.

Responsibilities

  • Partner with customers to understand operational challenges, constraints, and success criteria; run structured technical discovery and define the definition of done.
  • Translate open-ended problems into clear technical designs and implementation plans (architecture, data flows, integration surfaces, security considerations, rollout strategy).
  • Build AI-enabled solutions that integrate with customer systems and Remote’s platform (e.g., data pipelines, workflow automations, tool integrations, agentic services) and perform real tasks end-to-end.
  • Own deployments including reliability, performance, observability, incident response, and continuous improvement.
  • Develop evaluation and measurement for AI behavior: success metrics, test harnesses, golden datasets, regression suites, and guardrails.
  • Work with real data to validate outputs, quantify impact, and iterate quickly based on evidence.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Product and Engineering to ship high-quality solutions and to upstream reusable components.
  • Create leverage by turning one-off solutions into repeatable playbooks, reference architectures, templates, and internal tooling.
  • Be the voice of the field: bring back concrete customer needs, edge cases, and constraints that should shape product strategy.
