Harrison Clarke is partnering with a VC-backed startup in the Bay Area that’s building a next-generation AI-powered platform. They’re hiring a Full Stack Software Generalist who thrives on owning problems end-to-end, from backend systems and frontend experiences to infrastructure and emerging AI features.


This is a high-impact role in a fast-moving product environment where engineers shape both architecture and user experience.


🌟 About the Role

You’ll join a small, high-calibre engineering team building and scaling a modern product with AI at its core. This is not a siloed role, you’ll work across the entire stack and collaborate closely with product and design to ship meaningful features quickly.

  • Design and implement robust APIs and distributed systems
  • Contribute to frontend development (modern JS frameworks) with a strong focus on UX
  • Work on cloud infrastructure, deployment pipelines, and system reliability
  • Help integrate and expand AI-powered capabilities into the core product
  • Collaborate cross-functionally in a highly iterative, startup environment


🔧 What They’re Looking For

  • Strong experience as a Full Stack Engineer or Software Generalist
  • Comfortable working across backend, frontend, and infrastructure
  • Proficiency with modern backend systems (e.g., Node, Python, Go, or similar)
  • Experience with frontend frameworks (React or equivalent)
  • Strong systems thinking and product intuition
  • Ability to move quickly in ambiguous, fast-paced environments


✨ Nice to Have

  • Experience working in early-stage or high-growth startups
  • Exposure to AI/ML-powered product features or LLM integrations
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure)


💼 Why Join

  • High ownership across the full product stack
  • Direct impact on product direction and architecture
  • Opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI-driven features
  • Backed by leading VC investors
  • Fast-paced, builder-first engineering culture
