About Betterworks
Betterworks is HR software to align, develop, and activate your workforce for business growth. Organizations are able to replace outdated, ineffective, universally loathed annual review processes with powerful Continuous Performance Management programs that help managers be better at the conversations, coaching, and development necessary to inspire and motivate the entire workforce to achieve an organization's top priorities today and be ready for tomorrow's challenges.
What You’ll Be Doing
We are hiring a Software Engineer I – Full Stack (AI-Native) to build and enhance a complex enterprise performance management SaaS platform that supports decision-making at scale across large enterprises.
This role is for a product engineer who can build across the stack and use modern AI-assisted development tools effectively throughout the SDLC. You will own features and fixes from design through production readiness, using AI to accelerate execution while maintaining strong standards for correctness, testing, maintainability, and collaboration.
This is not an AI research or ML engineering role . It is a full-stack software engineering role for engineers who know how to use AI tools well.
Design, build, and enhance product features across frontend and backend systems
Write clean, efficient, and maintainable code using sound software engineering practices
Collaborate with product, design, QA, and other engineers to convert requirements into implementation plans
Own small-to-medium features or well-scoped technical improvements end-to-end
Write and maintain unit, integration, and E2E tests
Investigate incidents, troubleshoot issues, and improve reliability
Participate in code reviews and uphold engineering standards
Use AI tools to accelerate coding, debugging, refactoring, testing, documentation, and delivery workflows
Apply judgment in verifying AI outputs, identifying hallucinations, and protecting code quality
Work effectively in a remote, async environment across multiple time zones
Proficient in using AI coding tools to complete engineering tasks
Strong prompting techniques for implementation, debugging, refactoring, and testing
Ability to manage context effectively across files, requirements, logs, errors, and partial outputs
Ability to verify, correct, and safely integrate AI-generated code
Familiarity with tools such as GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor, or similar
Ability to use AI for parts of the SDLC: code generation, debugging, test generation, PR preparation, documentation, and change analysis
Ability to reason about when AI should be used, when it should not, and where human review is critical
Can translate vague requirements into structured prompts and execution plans
Can create bounded workflows for repeatable tasks such as bug triage, test generation, and small feature scaffolding
Can inspect, verify, and improve AI outputs rather than over-trusting them
Can use AI to accelerate work while maintaining ownership of architecture, correctness, and quality
What’ll Help You Be Successful
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
1–3 years of software development experience
Experience with Front End Frameworks such as Vue and React
Strong full-stack development fundamentals with TypeScript/JavaScript and one backend stack such as Node.js/NestJS or Python/Django
Good understanding of Web Application and Backend development technologies
Strong understanding of REST APIs
Experience with SQL databases such as Postgres
Working experience with Unit, Integration, and end-to-end testing
Solid grasp of software engineering fundamentals, design patterns, and maintainability
Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced product environment
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Experience working in Agile/Scrum or equivalent delivery environments
Experience with NestJS, Django, microservices, event-driven patterns, or API gateways
Experience with AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD workflows
Familiarity with MCP or tool-connected AI assistants
Familiarity with agentic workflows for bounded engineering tasks such as issue-to-PR, log analysis, regression analysis, or automated test drafting
Experience improving team productivity through templates, automation, or reusable engineering workflows
What We All Do
All employees share the responsibility of being aware of information security risks and adhering to information security policies and procedures.
