This is a fullstack role for someone who can move across backend services, frontend product surfaces, and AI-powered system design. You will work on user-facing features, production infrastructure, and internal engineering workflows where coding agents and AI-assisted development are part of normal day-to-day execution. This role is remote from Latin America. ## What You Will Work On - Build and ship fullstack product features across candidate and recruiter experiences, from API and data model design to frontend implementation. - Improve real-time AI-powered experiences used in interviews and assessments, including model orchestration, streaming UX, tool/function-calling patterns, and reliability. - Contribute to systems that integrate multiple LLM providers and require pragmatic handling of latency, cost, observability, and non-deterministic behavior. - Develop and improve deterministic internal tooling that helps engineers and agents execute work safely, repeatably, and with strong audibility. - Partner across product, design, and platform teams to take ambiguous problems from definition to production rollout. - Lead and mentor through code review, using reviews as both a quality gate and a coaching channel for less-experienced engineers. - Plan and deliver technical debt, architecture, and observability initiatives that improve long-term system maintainability. - Participate in on-call operations and drive runbook, reliability, and incident follow-up improvements. ## Requirements - Senior-level experience shipping production software end-to-end in a fullstack capacity. - Strong backend engineering skills in at least one modern language and ecosystem, plus practical frontend experience with a component-based framework. - Proven ability to pick up unfamiliar stacks quickly and deliver in mixed-technology environments. - Hands-on experience with agentic development workflows (for example: Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, or equivalent), including good judgment on delegation, context scoping, and review of AI-generated code. - Experience building production systems that use AI, such as LLM API integrations, prompt and context design, streaming responses, tool/function calling, and token or cost-aware engineering. - Significant contribution to code review, with evidence of raising code quality and mentoring peers through the review process. - Experience identifying and reducing technical debt, and contributing to architecture planning and documentation. - Proven ownership of production system health through monitoring/alerting improvements, incident response, and operational follow-through. - Experience partnering with product and technical leads on backlog preparation, scoping, sizing, and delivery planning. - Strong engineering fundamentals in testing, observability, debugging, and safe incremental delivery. - Clear written communication and collaborative ownership mindset in remote teams. Desired Stack You are not expected to know all of these technologies. Relevant equivalent experience is absolutely welcome. - Backend surfaces include Ruby on Rails, Java services, and Node/TypeScript services. - Frontend surfaces include React + TypeScript applications and shared web platform tooling. - AI systems include integrations across Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, Llama, and Mistral families, with streaming and tool-calling capabilities. - Platform and infrastructure include PostgreSQL, GraphQL, Redis/Sidekiq, Firebase Realtime Database, Datadog, LaunchDarkly, GitLab CI, cloud services (AWS and GCP), and containerized execution environments. - Internal engineering workflows include Python-based deterministic CLI tooling and AI-agent skills that support repeatable development operations. ## How We Work - Remote-first collaboration across time zones with a strong written culture. - AI tooling is an expectation and treated as part of the engineering toolbox. - Small, reviewable changes with high-quality code review and shared ownership of outcomes. - Pragmatic architecture decisions focused on reliability, maintainability, and user impact. - Documentation and operational clarity are part of shipping, not afterthoughts. - Senior ICs influence technical roadmap direction beyond their immediate delivery scope. - Operational ownership matters: we value engineers who improve on-call practices and close the loop after incidents. Logistics - Required overlap window with core team: Pacific 7:00 - 16:00, on-call 24 hrs for a week once every 8 weeks or so. ## About CoderPad ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: CoderPad provides a collaborative, real-world coding assessment platform that helps companies evaluate engineering skills through hands-on projects and live interviews. - **Entity Type**: Private (Privately Held) - **Headquarters**: San Francisco, California, United States - **Founded**: 2013 - **Founders**: Not publicly available ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Technical Hiring / Talent Assessment (Software Development) - **Target customers**: B2B – engineering teams, hiring managers, and recruiting functions at companies of all sizes (SMB to Fortune 100) - **Mission / Purpose**: Make tech hiring fair, fast, and realistic – moving beyond resumes and test-taking to evaluate real engineering skill. ## Products & Services - **[CoderPad Screen](https://coderpad.io/)**: Pre-built, real-world coding assessments that provide structured scoring and integrity monitoring. Reduces time-to-hire by 30% and cost-per-hire by $30K+. - **[CoderPad Interview](https://coderpad.io/)**: Live, collaborative pair-programming environment with a multi-file IDE, AI assistants, private notes, code playback, and structured scoring. - **Enterprise Security & Integrations**: SOC 2 / ISO 27001 compliant; seamless ATS and scheduling integrations (e.g., monday.com, McAfee case studies). ## Market Standing - **Valuation**: Not disclosed - **Key Metric**: Estimated annual revenue ~$4M (LinkedIn data) — however, the platform powers 3M+ technical evaluations per year and is trusted by 4,000+ organizations in 165+ countries, including 20%+ of the Fortune 100. - **Notable Investors / Partners**: Not disclosed; key customers include monday.com, McAfee, and other enterprise teams. - **Growth Signals**: Employee headcount grew 9.2% YoY (67 employees); 96% candidate completion rate; 97% engineer preference; expanding AI features and multi-LLM integrations. ## Competitive Advantages - **Real-world assessments**: Multi-file, project-based tasks (not algorithms) that mirror actual engineering work – leading to 60% higher completion rates versus other platforms. - **AI-native platform**: Built-in AI assistants with full context visibility (prompts, outputs, code edits) so interviewers can assess how candidates think and validate with AI. - **Candidate experience focus**: 96% of candidates finish assessments; strong brand perception among engineers. - **Scale & trust**: Used by 20%+ of Fortune 100 and thousands of global teams. ## Strategic Focus - **AI-powered hiring**: Deepening AI integration in both screening and live interviews – using multiple LLM providers, streaming UX, and non-deterministic behavior handling. - **Fairness & realism**: Continuously improving assessment design to eliminate bias and test actual engineering capability rather than test-taking skills. - **Global expansion**: Maintaining a remote-first, distributed workforce (10+ countries) while serving customers in 165+ countries. ## Why Work Here - **Culture**: Emphasis on curiosity, ownership, collaboration, transparency, and boldness. Written culture with async collaboration across time zones. - **Remote/Hybrid**: Remote-first; required overlap window with core team PST 7:00–16:00; on-call rotation about once every 8 weeks. - **Engineering Environment**: Small, reviewable changes; high-quality code reviews; AI tooling expected as part of daily work; strong focus on documentation and operational clarity. - **Impact**: Every employee helps people get jobs and helps companies build better teams. Diversity and inclusion are core values. - **Perks**: Not explicitly listed, but the tech stack includes modern AI/ML tools and a pragmatic architecture that values reliability and maintainability. ## Sources 1.
