Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Life360 is hiring a senior AI-native engineer for its Verticals team. The role builds end-to-end features initially focused on helping aging parents stay safely connected and independent, while establishing AI-native engineering workflows and supporting future product verticals.
Responsibilities
- Ship end-to-end across the stack — from backend services and APIs through to the iOS and Android surfaces members actually use — moving fluidly between layers as the feature demands
- Work with AI (Claude Code) as a first-class collaborator — your primary workflow involves orchestrating agents to create specs, generate results, and perform reviews
- Help define and codify AI-Native engineering practices for the Verticals team, establishing playbooks the broader org can adopt
- Build across the full stack as needed — shipping polished, performant, and reliable experiences to tens of millions of users
- Collaborate closely with product managers and designers to turn complex user problems into elegant, scalable engineering solutions
- Contribute to architectural decisions, code reviews, and a culture of craft and continuous improvement
- Participate in on-call rotation and incident response
- Use agentic workflows to dramatically increase the delivery of strong outcomes — moving faster without sacrificing quality
- Mentor team members and contribute to team processes, technical standards, and help evolve the team's AI-native engineering practices
- Support performance, reliability, and accessibility across the features you own
- Adapt patterns and services built for Aging in Place to future verticals (Things, Pets) as team scope expands
Skills
- 5+ years of experience building and operating high-quality, consumer-scale services
- 1+ years of hands-on experience prompting, evaluating, and building with LLMs
- Full-stack proficiency spanning backend services and mobile client development (iOS and/or Android), with the versatility to work across the whole stack as needed
- Deep experience with agentic workflows, prompt engineering, context window management, and MCP/function calling
- A track record of using AI tooling to multiply your own output — not just as autocomplete, but as a genuine development partner
- A strong sense of ownership — you don't wait to be told what to fix, and you follow through past "it works on my machine" to "it works for the member, in production, at scale."
- Strong communication and collaboration skills — you work well with product, design, and platform engineers
- A genuine excitement for defining what it means to be AI-Native — you're not waiting for the playbook, you want to write it
- Empathy for the humans behind the product — an aging parent trying to stay independent, or a family member trying to help from afar
- Bachelor's Degree in a Technical field, or equivalent experience
- Full-stack experience is strongly preferred for this role — you should be comfortable moving between backend services and the mobile surfaces that expose them
- Experience with IoT, telematics, or embedded/hardware-adjacent systems
- Familiarity with Kafka, Kinesis, or other high-throughput streaming platforms
- Background with observability tooling (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, DataDog)
Benefits
- Medical, dental, vision, life and disability insurance plans (100% paid for US employees).
- Life and disability as well as supplemental plans for medical and dental for Canadian employees.
- 401(k) plan with company matching program in the US.
- RRSP with DPSP plan for Canadian employees.
- Paid parental leave.
- Mental Wellness Program & Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for mental well-being.
- Generous time off: flexible PTO, companywide holidays throughout the year plus summer and winter shutdowns.
- Learning & Development programs.
- Equipment, tools, and reimbursement support for a productive remote environment.
- Free Life360 Platinum Membership and Tile trackers.
- Remote work environment as the primary experience for all employees; positions can be performed remotely within the US and Canada.
