Job Description
You’ll build Traba’s product on top of AI agents—taking frontier models and existing agents and putting them to work across our staffing marketplace to automate the pipeline that sources, vets, matches, and places workers on millions of shifts. (Our AI Agents team builds the agent platform; you apply it everywhere it creates leverage.) This is a product-engineering role first, so you’ll go where the priorities are: some weeks that’s wiring up an agent that automates vetting or matching, others it’s a payments flow or UI work. You’ll join the founding team, partner with our CTO on the product roadmap, own product decisions, and help build our foundational tech platform.
About You:
- An applier, not a researcher. You take frontier models and existing agents and wire them into real product across the stack—you care about shipping reliable automation, not owning the orchestration internals. And you don’t need every task to be an AI task: you take the highest-priority problem, model or not.
- Voracious learner. You explore new languages and frameworks happily, and can talk product with a designer one minute and infrastructure with a tech lead the next.
- Strong front-end chops. You have experience with (or a real desire to learn) React Native, and you love building performant apps users enjoy.
You Will:
- Apply existing agents and frontier models across the stack—worker app, business app, ops platform, marketplace—to automate vetting, matching, and fulfillment.
- Write and review high-quality code across our React Native app, React/TypeScript web apps, and Node.js/PostgreSQL APIs.
- Architect core systems—from real-time matching to autonomous worker-vetting pipelines powered by ML and agents.
- Partner with design to ship polished, intuitive UIs.
You Have:
- A recent degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, with exposure to TypeScript, React/React Native, Node.js, and/or PostgreSQL.
- Internship experience in an engineering environment, showcasing your ability to navigate ambiguity and initiate action.
- Experience integrating LLMs or agents into real product—prompting, tool wiring—or a clear drive to learn.
- Comfort in an early-stage team: ambiguity, self-direction, and fast iteration.
