You're not just writing code; you're shaping the future of how systems understand, analyze, and interact with information. This is your chance to truly own significant architectural pieces, driving technical direction and seeing your work directly impact enterprise customers globally. Ready to tackle complex challenges and grow your influence? Ryz Labs has an exciting opportunity for a Staff Software Engineer to join one of our dynamic client teams. This is a fully remote, worldwide position, offering flexibility and impact wherever you are.

Overview

We are seeking an exceptional Staff Software Engineer to become a cornerstone of our client's AI agent platform team. In this pivotal role, you will be entrusted with critical system ownership, from initial design concepts to hands-on coding and successful deployment. As the platform expands its reach and capabilities, so too will your scope and influence within the engineering organization. You will contribute to a high-impact product serving paying enterprise customers.

Key Responsibilities

Architect and own specific segments of the platform's infrastructure. Boundaries will be clearly defined alongside the principal engineer as the system evolves.
Design and develop robust AI agent pipelines, covering everything from document parsing and data extraction to insightful analysis and intelligent pricing models.
Make strategic infrastructure decisions across AWS to ensure the platform can gracefully handle a projected 5x growth in scale and demand.

Requirements

You possess over 5 years of professional experience building production-grade software, demonstrating a consistent track record of increasing ownership in architecture and technical decision-making.
Strong proficiency in Python or TypeScript, or both, developed in a production environment, is essential.
Hands-on experience with React and modern frontend frameworks, with a preference for Next.js, will be highly valued.
Direct experience with multi-model AI platforms such as OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google, and technologies for document understanding or OCR.
Proven expertise with infrastructure tools including AWS, Terraform, and Docker.
You have successfully built and shipped systems that actively serve paying enterprise clients.
You are skilled in designing scalable systems that other engineers have successfully leveraged and built upon.
Crucially, you have worked with Large Language Models (LLMs) or AI in production settings, understanding real user scenarios and inherent failure modes, not just academic projects.

What You'll Gain

The opportunity to make a significant impact on a cutting-edge AI agent platform.
Work with a talented, forward-thinking team committed to innovation.
Grow your technical leadership and architectural design skills in a rapidly scaling environment.
Enjoy the flexibility and autonomy of a fully remote role, collaborating with colleagues from around the world.
Contribute to a product that delivers tangible value to enterprise customers.
