Senior Software EngineerLocation: New York, NY (Hybrid) | Type: Full-Time | Reports to: Head of RevenueAbout NomicNomic builds AI agents and developer tools that power the built world. We help enterprise teams in architecture, engineering, and construction extract structured knowledge from decades of drawings, specs, and project files. Our platform combines embedding models, document parsing, and autonomous agents that reason over real-world data and take action in live environments.The RoleWe're looking for a senior full-stack engineer to build product across the Nomic platform.
You'll work on the interfaces, APIs, and backend systems that enterprise customers and developers use daily — from our web application to our Developer API.Most of your day-to-day coding will involve directing and managing AI coding agents. We're not interested in people who are curious about this — we need someone already doing it, with the architectural judgment to use it effectively. That means knowing how to decompose work for agents, reviewing output with a critical eye, maintaining codebase coherence when code is being generated at speed, and never letting velocity become an excuse for slop.
The bar is engineering excellence: clean architecture, thoughtful abstractions, code that other people can work in.What You'll Work OnProduct features end-to-end — UI through API through data layerBackend services in Python and TypeScriptFrontend in React/TypeScriptAPIs that serve both our product and external developersIntegration points with our AI and agent systemsWhat We're Looking For5+ years of professional software engineering experienceStrong full-stack skills — you're comfortable owning frontend and backendProduction experience with Python and TypeScriptActive, intentional use of AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, etc.) — not as a novelty but as your primary workflowGood instincts for API design, data modeling, and system architectureYou write code that's clear, tested, and easy to change — whether you typed it or an agent didYou care about the end-user experience, not just the implementationEven Better If You Have:Experience building developer-facing products or APIsFamiliarity with AI/ML systems — embeddings, retrieval, model integrationBackground in enterprise software or B2B productsWhat We OfferCompetitive base salary and performance-based compensationEquity participationMedical, dental, and vision coverageFlexible PTOHybrid NYC work model (3 days in office)High-visibility role on a small team
