Remote | Software Engineer, Data Platforms — $200,000–$280,000/year
Summary
Full-stack software engineer building production systems for human-data and AI operations: Python/FastAPI or Flask backend services, TypeScript/React frontends, and data pipelines over PostgreSQL/MongoDB, while using AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor) as a core development workflow.
We are sharing a specialised full-time opportunity for Software Engineers with strong expertise in Python, TypeScript, full-stack development, data platforms, and AI-assisted engineering workflows to build and maintain production systems supporting advanced human-data and AI operations.
Selected professionals will own features end-to-end across backend services, data pipelines, databases, and React-based frontends. The role combines traditional full-stack engineering with research-oriented development, using coding agents as a core development workflow while collaborating closely with research engineering, operations, and product teams.
Key Responsibilities
Full-Stack Platform Engineering
- Design and ship production-ready features across backend APIs, data pipelines, and React frontends
- Build and maintain backend services using Python frameworks such as FastAPI or Flask
- Develop TypeScript-based frontend and platform components
- Own features from initial requirements and architecture through implementation, testing, and deployment
- Build reliable systems that support day-to-day expert and operational workflows
Data Platforms & Infrastructure
- Own client-facing data delivery workflows, including exports, access control, and platform reliability
- Contribute to data modelling, schema design, and query-performance optimisation
- Work across relational and document databases such as PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or SQLite
- Build and maintain data pipelines supporting production platform requirements
- Troubleshoot production issues and improve system resilience, observability, and reliability
AI-Assisted Engineering & Coding Agents
- Use coding agents as a primary development workflow for implementation and iteration
- Scope engineering work around desired outcomes and direct multiple coding agents where appropriate
- Review agent-generated changes at the architectural and systems level
- Identify technical, security, or design issues that automated coding workflows may miss
- Improve frameworks, checks, and evaluations that enable faster agent-driven development without sacrificing engineering quality
Cross-Functional Development & System Design
- Partner with research engineering, operations, and product teams to translate platform requirements into production systems
- Convert ambiguous product or research needs into scoped technical plans and implementation workflows
- Work with agent loops, MCP, tool integrations, data integrations, permissions, and security considerations
- Apply context management, RAG, and evaluation techniques when testing agent-based workflows
- Communicate architecture decisions, trade-offs, implementation risks, and technical constraints clearly
Ideal Profile
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience
- Approximately 0–5 years of professional software engineering experience, or strong shipped projects as a recent graduate
- Strong fundamentals in Python and TypeScript
- Experience building CRUD applications using frameworks such as FastAPI, Flask, React, or comparable technologies
- Working knowledge of relational or document databases including PostgreSQL, MongoDB, SQLite, or similar systems
- Experience deploying services to a major cloud platform such as GCP, AWS, or Azure
- Practical experience using coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or comparable tools as part of regular engineering work
- Ability to turn desired outcomes into technical plans, direct coding agents, verify results, and identify architectural issues
- Understanding of agent loops, MCP, tool and data integrations, permissions, and security
- Familiarity with context management, RAG, and evaluations for testing agent workflows
- Exposure to reinforcement-learning concepts or environments is advantageous
- Experience with coding-data pipelines or task-authoring platforms is beneficial
- Familiarity with CI/CD, deployment pipelines, and DevOps fundamentals is advantageous
- Contributions to team projects, open-source software, or startup environments are beneficial
Engagement Details
- Full-time engagement
- Fully remote
- Compensation: $200,000–$280,000/year
- Work will span full-stack engineering, data-platform development, backend services, React interfaces, and AI-assisted software development
- Coding agents will form a central part of the engineering workflow
- Responsibilities will include production-system ownership, data infrastructure, reliability, and cross-functional implementation
- Collaboration will involve research engineering, operations, product, and other technical stakeholders
- Platform priorities and technical requirements may evolve as product and research needs develop
- Work must be completed without using confidential or proprietary information belonging to any employer, client, institution, or other third party
