About this role

Writer is seeking an experienced fullstack software engineer to join our growing team building the future of AI-assisted, collaborative software development.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in high-impact, cross-functional environments and is excited to help define best practices and technical vision for our internal and user-facing tools.

As a part of this team, you’ll contribute to develop Writer’s Agent Builder, a low-code tool that combines a UI builder, a workflow builder and a Python interpreter into a cloud-based IDE. The upstream project is the Writer Framework, which is an open source that can be self-hosted : https : / / github.com / writer / writer-framework

Experience integrating REST APIs, OAuth, and ideally AI services

Familiarity with CI / CD, infrastructure-as-code (basic YAML is a plus), and developer tooling

Comfortable working in fast-paced, ambiguous environments and thinking several steps ahead

Bonus . If you’ve built devtools, no-code platforms, AI-powered interfaces, or contributed to open source, please share them!

Note : We are open to both front end and backend leaning profiles for this role. 5 years experience is minimum experience, but we are open to seniority (senior, staff, senior staff, etc).
