Goodie helps leading brands win AI search. As billions of people use ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and other AI systems to discover products and make buying decisions, brands need a way to understand and influence how they’re represented.

Goodie gives teams a full AI control plane: real-time visibility into how AI models speak about their brand and products, how competitors show up, and an optimization engine to improve visibility and performance. This category didn’t exist two years ago - we were early, and we’re defining it.

We’re backed by strong investors, trusted by category-leading customers, and scaling fast. We’re hiring curious, ambitious builders to help shape the future of AI search.

• Participate in the entire application lifecycle, from coding to debugging and testing, with an emphasis on quality and performance.

• Maintain and optimize the performance of existing applications.

What you have:

• 5+ years of full‑stack development experience with a proven track record of building high usage B2B software applications.

• Proficiency in React for front‑end development, with a strong understanding of how to build responsive, high‑performance web applications.

• Experience with server‑side languages such as Python, Node.js, or Java.

• Strong understanding of DevOps practices and experience in software deployment, including CI/CD pipelines, containerization (e.g., Docker), and cloud infrastructure (AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure).

• Solid knowledge of database management systems (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB).

• Experience with RESTful APIs, API integration, and data exchange formats (JSON, XML).

• Familiarity with software development best practices, including version control (Git), testing, and continuous integration/deployment (CI/CD).

• Excellent problem‑solving skills and the ability to debug complex systems.

• Strong leadership and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross‑functional teams.

• Passion for ad tech and a desire to work in a fast‑paced, innovative startup environment.
