Staff Applied AI Engineer — Auggie Platform - CANADA (Remote)

You already build with AI daily. You use Claude Code as a core part of your workflow, not as a novelty

You have strong opinions, loosely held, about how AI changes software architecture, team structure, and engineering culture

You think in systems. You connect technical decisions to customer outcomes and long-term business value

You communicate clearly and directly. You can explain complex tradeoffs to product, design, and executive stakeholders

You're energized by ambiguity and speed. You thrive in a fast-growing company where the roadmap evolves and ownership is real

You like to have fun at work. We take our craft seriously, but we don't take ourselves too seriously. We celebrate wins, crack jokes, and genuinely enjoy building together

8+ years of professional software engineering experience, with meaningful time in senior or staff-level roles

Production experience building multi-agent or agentic AI systems — not prototypes or demos, but systems running against real data with real users

Deep familiarity with LLM integration patterns: prompt engineering, tool use / function calling, RAG pipelines, and structured output parsing

Experience with agent orchestration frameworks, agent-to-agent communication, or autonomous workflow execution

Strong backend engineering fundamentals: TypeScript/Node.js, event-driven architectures, and distributed systems

Track record of owning product-oriented technical initiatives end-to-end, from system design through production

Experience with MCP servers, LLM-based validation, or spec-driven development workflows is a strong plus

Startup or high-growth experience preferred, but big-company background is fine if the AI systems experience is genuinely strong
