OVERVIEWWe are seeking an experienced Senior Full Stack Engineer – Commerce AI with a strong background in full-stack engineering and applied AI/LLM systems to support the client's Commerce AI team. This role sits at the intersection of technical innovation and guest experience, helping shape the strategic direction of AI-powered commerce solutions.
The successful candidate will architect, build, and deploy AI-native applications that directly impact high-traffic booking flows, dynamic pricing models, and personalized guest experiences, blending deep traditional full-stack engineering with hands-on orchestration of Agentic AI systems using modern LLMs and integration frameworks.
This role is ideal for a highly autonomous, detail-oriented senior individual contributor who is comfortable driving complex system design, working across dual-cloud environments, and delivering AI solutions within a high-traffic, revenue-generating e-commerce environment.
Location:, Seattle (hybrid preferred) or remote covering PST time zone
Contract Length: 1 year (extension and conversion option)
Rate: $75-$90/h
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Design, build, and scale secure, AI-native applications that enhance the digital storefront, optimize revenue, and personalize the guest journey.
- Implement advanced Agentic AI workflows, integrating with leading LLMs (Gemini, OpenAI, Anthropic) to build autonomous systems for planning, dynamic merchandising, and guest support.
- Leverage the Model Context Protocol (MCP) framework to seamlessly and securely connect AI models with enterprise booking engines, CRM systems, and real-time operational data.
- Write clean, maintainable, high-performance code across the stack utilizing C# (.NET) for high-throughput backend microservices and SvelteKit for dynamic, accessible user interfaces.
- Architect and manage cloud infrastructure across Azure and GCP, ensuring optimal deployment, latency reduction, scaling, and cost efficiency of AI workloads in high-traffic e-commerce environments.
- Drive complex system design discussions, establish technical guardrails, and ensure strict adherence to data privacy, AI safety, and enterprise architecture standards.
QUALIFICATIONS
- 8+ years of professional software engineering experience.
- 3+ years of dedicated experience building and scaling production-grade AI-native or LLM-powered applications.
- Deep expertise in C# and the .NET ecosystem for building enterprise-grade APIs and highly available microservices.
- Proven track record building interactive, performance-optimized e-commerce or consumer-facing web applications using SvelteKit (or advanced Svelte).
- Hands-on experience deploying and managing production workloads in both Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
- Hands-on experience working with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to build secure ecosystem integrations for LLMs.
- Demonstrated experience designing autonomous agents, multi-agent orchestrations, and complex tool-use (function calling) paradigms.
- Deep understanding of API integration, fine-tuning patterns, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) using Gemini, OpenAI, and Anthropic models.
- Strong background in system design, specifically balancing trade-offs between latency, cost, and accuracy when integrating AI into revenue-generating e-commerce flows.
- Proven success as an individual contributor in fast-paced, agile environments.
Preferred
- Experience building complex, high-transaction e-commerce systems involving dynamic pricing, real-time inventory management, or high-scale loyalty programs (travel industry background is a strong plus).
- Experience building complex reasoning pipelines, semantic routing architectures, or custom retrieval logic to supply AI agents with enterprise business rules.
- Knowledge of LLM monitoring, evaluation, and observability tools.
Education
- Post-secondary degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related discipline.
