Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Life360 is a mission-driven company focused on helping people stay connected and protecting the people, pets, and things they care about. The AI-Native Senior Software Engineer II will build end-to-end features for the Aging in Place member segment, develop AI-native engineering workflows, and own products from development through production. The role also involves full-stack development across backend services and native mobile applications, collaboration with product and design teams, and mentoring engineers.
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 (backend & Native mobile)— 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
- * **Daily use:** You use AI coding assistants (we support Claude Code, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot) for real, substantive tasks: analysis, coding, refactoring, testing, navigating codebases, and documentation. Not just research or autocomplete
- * **Judgment and ownership:** AI-generated code gets the same review you'd give any PR. You are accountable for everything you ship
- * **Velocity:** We expect senior engineers who use AI well to operate with meaningful leverage — doing more with the same time, taking on problems that would otherwise require a larger team
- * **Team leadership:** You share what works. You automate prompting strategies that others can build on and help teammates earlier in their AI workflow adoption get up to speed
- * **Continuous learning:** The tooling is changing fast. You stay current and bring recommendations to the team when something would meaningfully improve how we work
- Full-stack experience is strongly preferred for this role — you should be comfortable moving between backend services and the mobile surfaces that expose them
