Zencoder is looking to build the next generation of AI coding agents that supercharge developer workflows and elevate engineering impact.
Requirements
- 10+ years of real-world engineering experience, including deep experience with TypeScript (or a close cousin).
- Working knowledge of Java or Kotlin — enough to jump into JetBrains IDE plugin development when needed.
- Familiarity with Python (especially in the context of scripting, automation, or AI workflows) is a big plus.
- Generalist mindset — you’re comfortable picking up new languages, frameworks, and systems as the job demands.
- Strong CS fundamentals — data structures, algorithms, architecture.
- Experience building and maintaining complex production software (ideally with users!).
- Frontend: TypeScript, VSCode Extension APIs, React, Java/Kotlin, Swing
Responsibilities
- Build the core functionality of our AI coding agent — from intelligent code edits to repo-wide refactors, project scaffolding, and beyond.
- Write excellent TypeScript and make decisions that scale, but also get your hands dirty across the stack when needed.
- Contribute to our Python-based AI integration layer and model-serving infrastructure.
- Dive into unfamiliar tech, frameworks, and tooling.
- Collaborate with a team that actually ships.
Other
- Clear, low-drama communication.
- A low fear of failure and a high bias for action.
- Experience working remotely
- 10+ years of real-world engineering experience
- Equity included — you’re not just an employee, you’re part of the upside.
