About the Role: The traditional model of siloed product managers, designers, and engineers is too slow for modern AI-native development. At HighLevel, every engineer owns a product outcome end-to-end — from idea to prototype to production to scale. You will operate as a Team of One. With AI tooling and strong engineering infrastructure, a single engineer can now build what previously required an entire squad. You are not implementing tickets. You own the product. What You'll Do:
  • End-to-End Product Ownership:
  • Translate business goals into working, deployable systems
  • Define architecture, workflows, and implementation plans
  • Ship and maintain production-grade systems — not demos or prototypes

  • Rapid Prototyping & Iteration:
  • Turn ambiguous ideas into working demos within hours or days
  • Prototype using code, AI tooling, automation, or low-code systems
  • Validate through experiments and real user feedback, then iterate to production quality

  • Build AI-Native Systems: 
  • Design and orchestrate LLM agents, retrieval pipelines, workflow automation, memory layers, APIs, and guardrails. Build for resilience against hallucinations, model variability, and quality degradation over time

  • Design for Scale, Cost & Performance: 
  • Reason through token consumption, inference cost, latency constraints, infrastructure scalability, and system resilience. The goal: systems that work efficiently at scale.

  • Operational Excellence:
  • Instrument systems with monitoring and telemetry
  • Build evaluation loops for continuous quality improvement
  • Automate workflows that increase engineering velocity
  • Maintain clear, repeatable documentation
  • Minimum Qualifications:
  • 5+ years of software engineering experience
  • Demonstrated track record of shipping production systems
  • Strong systems thinking and logical reasoning
  • High ownership mindset; operates well with minimal supervision
  • Comfortable with ambiguity and fast iteration cycles
  • Experience with APIs, automation tools, or AI platforms
  • Ability to reason about infrastructure tradeoffs and system reliability
  • Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience building LLM-based or AI-driven products
  • Familiarity with evaluation frameworks, monitoring, or instrumentation
  • Experience with data pipelines, analytics, or telemetry
  • Strong UX and front-end sensibility
  • Portfolio or GitHub showcasing deployed systems
  • Stack: React / Vue / Angular · Node.js / Python / Java
  • What Success Looks Like:
  • Consistently reduces cycle time from idea to production
  • Ships production-grade systems, not experiments
  • Balances quality, latency, and cost in system design
  • Builds evaluation loops that improve product performance over time
  • Why You'll Love Working Here:
  • Massive Impact: Your work directly affects millions of businesses worldwide
  • High Autonomy: We trust builders to own outcomes, not just tasks
  • Remote-First: Work from anywhere; we measure results, not hours
  • AI-Native Stack: Latest tooling to accelerate building and experimentation
  • Builder Culture: We value speed, ownership, clarity of thought, and execution
