Job summary

RedTrack is seeking its first software developer to build in a spec-driven, AI-first model. You’ll translate requirements into precise specs, identify risks, and guide AI-assisted implementation. You’ll shape how this new engineering approach evolves with the team, tooling, and guardrails while delivering production-grade backend components.

You will work closely with product and design to ensure clear acceptance criteria and robust software behavior in real-world conditions.

Qualifications

• Strong backend software engineering experience.
• Ability to translate ambiguous requirements into precise specifications.
• Solid understanding of backend architecture, databases, concurrency, performance, scalability, and failure handling.
• Ability to review and reason about code, including code you did not write yourself.
• Strong testing, debugging, and problem-solving skills.
• Experience with CI/CD, observability, and production engineering practices.
• Hands-on experience with AI coding tools or a strong interest in AI-assisted development.
• High level of ownership and ability to work independently in a new and evolving engineering model.
• English sufficient for technical communication and documentation.

Responsibilities

• Turn product and technical requirements into clear, implementation-ready specifications.
• Identify ambiguity, hidden assumptions, constraints, failure scenarios, and technical risks before implementation begins.
• Use AI agents to implement solutions by providing specifications, context, constraints, and acceptance criteria, and guiding implementation iterations.
• Review and verify AI-generated and unfamiliar code for correctness, architectural fit, performance, scalability, and maintainability.
• Design reliable backend components and data access patterns for production-scale systems.
• Validate solutions through testing, benchmarking, profiling, runtime metrics, and other relevant evidence.
• Investigate failures and continuously improve engineering guardrails, tooling, specifications, and AI-agent instructions.
