About the Role
We're hiring a Software Engineer to build agentic AI features into the Displai CMS. You'll ship LLM-powered workflows end to end across our TypeScript/Node backend and React frontend, working alongside senior engineers and the VP of Engineering. This is a build role for someone already fluent with agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, MCP) who wants to apply that fluency to a production product running at scale. AI is collapsing the distance between engineering and product, and we're looking for someone who can think like a product builder, drive projects independently, and ship at the pace these tools now make possible.
What You Will Be Doing
Build agentic features into the Displai CMS, from prototype through production rollout
Design and implement LLM-driven workflows: tool use, structured outputs, evaluations, prompt iteration
Contribute to our MCP server work and help expose more of our platform to AI agents
Own features end to end: scoping, backend APIs, frontend UI, monitoring, and iteration based on customer use
Drive projects independently. Make product calls in flight, prototype to validate ideas, and bring partners in when it matters rather than waiting for specs
Collaborate with product, design, and senior engineers on scoping and trade-offs
Use AI coding tools as a force multiplier and help raise the bar for how the team uses them
What We are Looking For
1 to 4 years of professional software engineering experience
Strong fundamentals in TypeScript/Node and React, including modern React patterns (hooks, state management, component composition)
Solid backend skills: designing and building REST APIs, writing performant SQL against relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, or similar), and reasoning about schema design and migrations
Comfortable with HTML/CSS, responsive UI work, and component-driven frontend development
Working knowledge of Git, code review practices, testing (unit and integration), and CI/CD workflows
Heavy day-to-day user of agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, or equivalent). You can talk specifically about what you've built with them and where they fall short
Product sense and ownership. Agentic AI compresses build cycles, which means engineers need to make more product calls in flight: scoping trade-offs, judging when something is good enough, and driving projects to outcomes without waiting for spec hand-offs. We're looking for engineers who think like product builders, not just implementers
Comfort working across the stack: backend services, frontend, and the glue between them
Bias toward shipping. You'd rather have a rough version in production than a perfect one in a branch
Clear written communication and a low-ego collaboration style
Preferred qualifications
Shipped agentic or LLM-powered features in a production product
Built or contributed to MCP servers
Experience with evals, prompt engineering at scale, or agent orchestration frameworks
Background in B2B SaaS, multi-tenant systems, or content management platforms
Experience with NoSQL or caching layers (Redis, DynamoDB, etc.)
Familiarity with message queues, background jobs, or event-driven architectures
Exposure to AWS, Docker, and modern observability stacks (logs, metrics, traces)
Experience with TypeScript on the backend (NestJS, Express, or similar) and ORMs (Prisma, TypeORM, etc.)
Experience with Go, particularly for performance-sensitive services or backend tooling
