About the Role
Note on tech stack: Internally, the applications are built on a MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React, Node.js). Direct experience with this stack to build web based application is a must have as we're primarily hiring for strong full-stack and AI-building ability to ramp up our specific stack quickly.
This role is primarily focused on software development, with approximately 80% of the responsibilities centered on designing, developing, and maintaining scalable software solutions. The remaining 20% involves working with AI/ML technologies, including contributing to AI-driven features, integrating machine learning capabilities, and supporting the development of intelligent applications. Candidates should have a strong foundation in software engineering, complemented by hands-on experience applying AI/ML concepts in production or enterprise environments.
Work Model: For US candidates, please note that this role is based in Middletown, NJ and is 100% onsite. For candidates in Quebec, this is a hybrid role, 3 days onsite out of our Montreal office.
Responsibilities:
- Design, build, and maintain full-stack web applications with AI-powered features.
- Build and integrate LLM-based features chat, copilots, summarization, extraction, and retrieval-augmented generation into products.
- Do prompt engineering, tool/function calling, and agent workflows on top of AI SDKs.
- Design evaluation and guardrail patterns for AI features (quality, safety, cost, latency).
- Develop scalable, secure backend services and APIs that wrap AI capabilities.
- Create responsive, reusable, maintainable user interfaces for AI features.
- Integrate AI SDKs, embedding models, and vector retrieval with internal services.
- Deploy applications and AI services to cloud environments.
- Set up CI/CD and monitor production AI features for latency, cost, and quality drift.
- Troubleshoot issues across the full stack.
- Work with product, design, and engineering teams in an Agile environment.
- Apply security best practices across applications and AI integrations.
Qualifications:
- Degree in computer science, AI, data science, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
- Strong programming skills, including a primary web-focused language and a language commonly used for AI/ML work.
- Direct experience with the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React, Node.js).
- Experience building AI agents or multi-step LLM workflows.
- Proven experience building production web applications end to end.
- Experience building features on top of large language models and AI SDKs prompt engineering, retrieval, and function/tool use.
- Experience building responsive user interfaces and robust backend services and APIs.
- Experience designing and integrating APIs and service-oriented architecture.
- Familiarity with embeddings, vector retrieval, and retrieval-augmented generation patterns. • Familiarity with containers and automated deployment pipelines.
- Understanding of cloud deployment and infrastructure.
- Strong understanding of authentication, authorization, and API security.
- Comfort with version control and collaborative development workflows.
- Strong debugging and problem-solving skills.
Interview Integrity:
During the interview process, we're evaluating your individual problem-solving skills, creativity, and approach to challenges. While AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Cursor are part of your daily toolkit once you join B-Yond, all interviews, assessments, and take-home assignments must be completed independently.
You may not use AI tools, third-party services, coaching platforms, or content-farming services during any part of the interview process unless we explicitly permit it. We will clearly communicate when AI tools are allowed for specific assessments.
Any indication of third-party assistance or AI-generated responses will result in immediate disqualification.
