AI-First Full-Stack Engineer – End-to-End Ownership

YPO; Oregon; Hybrid; USD 120,000 - 180,000; Full time

Job summary

YPO is seeking a high-ownership Full Stack Engineer to design and deploy features across a multi-layer AI-first platform. You will work from member-facing React/TypeScript interfaces through GraphQL APIs to AI-enabled intelligence services, connecting with OpenAI, Gemini, Neo4j, Snowflake, and orchestration systems.

Collaboration with product, security, and DevOps is essential. You will own end-to-end development, implement scalable schemas, and drive performance with caching (Redis), messaging

Qualifications

• 5–7 years of professional software engineering experience shipping production-grade products end-to-end
• Strong TypeScript/React skills (component architecture, state management, hooks, performance)
• Backend experience with Node.js and NestJS building modular, tested services
• GraphQL experience (schema design, resolvers, subscriptions, Apollo client/server) and familiarity with API gateway patterns (Apigee)
• PostgreSQL proficiency (query optimization, schema design, TypeORM/Prisma)

Responsibilities

• Own the full feature lifecycle architecture, implementation, code review, QA, deployment, and post-launch monitoring
• Build responsive React/TypeScript frontends integrated with Optimizely; design Apollo GraphQL schemas and resolvers served through Apigee; build modular Node.js/NestJS backend services using Redis for caching and Kafka for event-driven workflows
• Design and query PostgreSQL schemas (TypeORM/Prisma); collaborate on Snowflake pipelines and dbt models feeding the Leadership Intelligence layer
• Integrate OpenAI and Google Gemini APIs for AI-powered discovery, recommendations, and matching; work with Neo4j graph data for relationship-driven insights
• Use AI-assisted development workflows (pair programming, code generation, test scaffolding) to increase velocity without compromising quality; handle AI feature failures, timeouts, and token costs with a production mindset
• Instrument features with PostHog and Datadog; design and run A/B experiments and feature-flag rollouts via Optimizely; use data to drive iteration
• Contribute to architecture decisions, ADRs, and post-incident reviews; address performance bottlenecks across the stack (GraphQL resolvers, N+1 queries, frontend rendering, mobile time-to-interactive)
• Partner with product, design, the Lead Security Engineer, and DevOps to ensure features are secure, well-architected, and operationally sound from the start
