Associate Software Engineer

Array; Raleigh (NC); Ibrido; USD 85.000 - 115.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

Array HQ is seeking an Associate Software Engineer in Raleigh, NC, with 2–3 years of production software experience and a strong Python background. You will own features from design through production, building AI agents and integrating them with a .NET/React platform.

You will work on end-to-end feature delivery, APIs, data access controls, and observability, while collaborating with product and engineers to ship high-quality AI-powered capabilities.

Competenze

• 2–3 years of production software experience, or equivalent depth from internships and projects.
• Interest in AI products and how agents behave for real users (tests and evals).
• Proficiency in Python plus at least one other language; comfortable with large codebases.
• Strong testing habits and sound API/data design.
• Self-directed problem solving with clear written updates.

Mansioni

• Build and extend AI agents (backend tools, workflows, and user-facing experiences) using Python, Pydantic AI, and AGUI, our agent UI layer.
• Ship features end-to-end: requirements, implementation, automated tests, production rollout, and fixes when behavior changes in the wild.
• Connect agents to the rest of the product (APIs, hiring and workforce data, access controls, and audit logs) using .NET microservices, React, and TypeScript when work spans the agent and platform layers.
• Debug across models, prompts, application code, and data; improve reliability and observability as usage grows.
• Partner with product and other engineers: estimate work, communicate progress, review code, and give constructive feedback.
• Use coding agents daily as part of how the team works; we fund the tooling to do that well.

Descrizione del lavoro

Array HQ builds software for high-volume hiring and frontline workforce operations, where AI agents take on repetitive work and people stay in the loop on the decisions that matter. We're looking for an Associate Software Engineer with about 2–3 years of professional experience who wants to own features from design through production: strong in Python and agent systems, comfortable on a .NET / React platform, and motivated by shipping AI products that hold up in production, not slide decks.

Compensation: $85,000–$115,000 per year, depending on experienceWork arrangement: Hybrid, based in Raleigh, NCReports to: Director of Software Engineering, on a team of 20 engineers

What you'll do

• Build and extend AI agents (backend tools, workflows, and user-facing experiences) using Python, Pydantic AI, and AGUI, our agent UI layer
• Ship features end-to-end: requirements, implementation, automated tests, production rollout, and fixes when behavior changes in the wild
• Connect agents to the rest of the product (APIs, hiring and workforce data, access controls, and audit logs) using .NET microservices, React, and TypeScript when work spans the agent and platform layers
• Debug across models, prompts, application code, and data; improve reliability and observability as usage grows
• Partner with product and other engineers: estimate work, communicate progress, review code, and give constructive feedback
• Use coding agents daily as part of how the team works; we fund the tooling to do that well

What we're looking for

• Experience: ~2–3 years building production software (or equivalent depth from internships plus substantial projects)
• AI product interest: You care how agents behave for real users (test suites and evals, failure modes, UX around model output), not only that you can call an API
• Craft: Proficiency in Python plus at least one other language; comfort reading and improving a large existing codebase
• Quality: Strong testing habits, sound API and data design, and judgment about when to optimize
• Communication: Self-directed problem solving, clear written updates, and willingness to ask early when requirements are fuzzy

How we build AI

• Real products: Customer-facing AI agents for recruiting and workforce operations, not internal-only chatbots
• Engineering discipline: Structured evaluations before and after release, tracing and monitoring of agent runs, clear human review on consequential steps, and permissions tied to the logged-in user, with the same audit history as the rest of the platform

Our stack (you don't need every box checked)

Python, Pydantic AI, and AGUI for agents and AI-facing experiences. .NET microservices, React, TypeScript, Azure, and SQL for the core platform. Expect roughly half of your time on agent work in Python and half on platform integration and features in .NET/React. The balance moves with the roadmap, but both are part of the job.

Growth

This role has a clear path to the next level as you take on larger projects with less guidance, lead technical decisions, and help shape how the team builds.

We'd especially love to hear from you if

• You've shipped agent, copilot, or automation features where quality and reliability mattered
• You can show something you built because you wanted to: side projects, open source, or experiments (especially AI)
• Staffing, logistics, restaurants, warehouses, fleets, or similar high-volume frontline environments interest you, because software has to work when operations depend on it
