Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Penn Foster Group is transforming online learning to help learners by uniting various educational platforms. As a Senior Software Engineer, AI Experience, you will build AI-native products end-to-end, collaborating with teams to shape features that enhance the learning experience.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and ship full-stack features end-to-end using TypeScript, Vue.js, and Node, deployed on Azure
- Write evals and observability for LLM features
- Use agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, or equivalent) as your primary development environment for planning, executing, and reviewing AI-generated work to ship faster while maintaining clean code that is ready for change
- Take ownership of AI-powered content authoring and management features
- Integrate model APIs (Anthropic, OpenAI, others) with attention to tokenization, latency, cost control, prompt-injection risk, and graceful degradation when models fail
- Collaborate closely with product, platform, and sibling engineering teams to translate ambiguous problems into shippable systems
- Lead code reviews, set technical standards for AI-assisted development, and mentor engineers on prompting, context engineering, eval design, and agentic workflows
- Ensure scalability, security, observability, and unit economics of the systems you own
Skills
- 5+ years of experience building customer-facing products at a high-quality software company
- Strong UI and TypeScript fundamentals, with experience across the full stack (Browser technologies, Node, PostgreSQL)
- Track record of driving complex, end-to-end features (not just incremental improvements and refactors) with visible impact on the product
- Product sensibility: you care about UX, speed, and polish, and you push back when something doesn't feel right
- Comfortable working without heavy PM overhead; you can help to shape the problem, not just implement a solution
- High ownership mentality: self-directed, full-lifecycle builder who takes a feature from idea to shipped
- Thrives in a remote, async-first environment with a lean, high-output team
- Experience at a startup or a company with a genuinely high engineering bar
