Key Responsibilities:
- Build, ship, and maintain internal web applications using AI-assisted development environments, translating business requirements into working software quickly while maintaining reliability and security standards
- Partner with leadership to identify high-cost or underused software that can be replaced with purpose-built internal tools, and estimate cost savings delivered by each replacement project
- Write clean, documented, and maintainable code following source control and deployment best practices; apply security and data protection standards to all internal tools
- Work directly with stakeholders across departments to scope, prioritize, and demo new tools; maintain transparent backlog communication and document each tool thoroughly for organizational continuity
- Stay current on AI development tools and techniques, establish and report on delivery KPIs (tools shipped, cost savings, adoption, uptime), and propose new opportunities for internal tooling
Requirements
- 3+ years of experience building and shipping web applications with a track record of delivering working software quickly
- Fluent in English (written and spoken) – able to communicate effectively with US-based teams and stakeholders
- Hands-on experience with AI-assisted development tools (Replit, Claude Code, Copilot, GitHub Copilot, or similar)
- Proficiency in modern web stack: JavaScript/TypeScript, React, Node.js, Python
- Experience building applications that connect to third-party SaaS platforms via REST APIs
- Proven experience working in Scrum/Agile frameworks with sprint planning, standups, retrospectives, and iterative delivery
- Sound judgment on build-versus-buy decisions and ability to prioritize work for business impact
Technical Requirements
- Processor: Intel 11th Gen (or AMD Ryzen 5000 series) for Windows | M2 for Macs
- RAM: 16 GB minimum
- Internet: Stable connection of 25-50 Mbps minimum
Preferred:
- Experience replacing paid SaaS tools with custom-built internal applications
- Familiarity with HubSpot, Microsoft 365, SharePoint, or Zoho Recruit APIs

- 18 paid vacation days + U.S. federal holidays
- Paid maternity/paternity leave (up to 2 months with 50% salary coverage after 1 year)
- A supportive, people-first environment where your voice matters
