Job description

About the Team

We’re a builder team at Pattern that ships products to streamline operations and open new markets. We move quickly, iterate directly with users, and give engineers real autonomy and ownership. AI is part of our daily toolkit—used to speed up product management, elevate experience design, and increase engineering velocity. We share what works and continually raise the bar together.

The Role

• We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer who enjoys building innovative, scalable solutions for ambiguous problems. You’ll work across the stack, collaborate with product and design, and own projects from architecture through launch and iteration.

Problem Spaces You May Work In

• You won’t be limited to a single domain. Recent and ongoing initiatives include:
• Short-Form Video Intelligence & Creative Tooling - Analyze patterns in social video and power data-driven creative workflows (insight extraction, content scoring, generation pipelines).
• Marketplace Content Optimization at Scale - Synthesize/enrich product listings, normalize attributes and taxonomies, and enable rapid experimentation to improve conversion.
• Applied Automation & Robotics Enablement - Connect perception, workflow orchestration, and operator tools to improve reliability and throughput in physical operations.
• AI Platform & Agentic Workflows - Retrieval, evaluation, guardrails, and observability services that integrate AI deeply into product experiences with the right cost/latency/quality trade-offs.

Our Preferred Stack

• We hire senior engineering ability and adaptability. If you’re willing to adopt our tools, we want to talk—even if your background differs.
• Languages & Frameworks: Python, FastAPI, React/Next.js
• Cloud & Infrastructure: AWS (Terraform)
• Data: SQL

What You’ll Do

• Design, build, and operate production systems with clear interfaces, tests, and observability.
• Partner directly with users and stakeholders to validate value and iterate quickly.
• Apply AI thoughtfully to accelerate development and improve outcomes, and share your approach with the team.
• Make pragmatic architecture decisions and own projects end-to-end.

What We’re Looking For

• Senior-level experience delivering and operating production software (typically 4+ years).
• Strong backend skills (APIs, data modeling, cloud services) and comfort working across the stack.
• Product mindset: bias to action, care for UX, reliability, and maintainability.
• Curiosity and sound judgment in applying AI to real workflows.
