ABOUT YOU
Let’s See If We’re
a Match
The ideal candidate for Productive is a software engineer with industry experience in building software applications – ideally 4+ years. Still, we care more about what you’ve built and how you work than just how long you’ve been doing it.
We’re looking for strong mid and senior-level engineers who can take ownership of features, contribute to technical decisions, and help push projects forward. While experience matters, your ability to build, improve, and collaborate effectively is what we value most.
If you’ve worked in environments where you’ve taken real ownership of projects, we’d love to hear from you – even if your experience doesn’t fit a rigid “X years” mold.
So, if you recognize yourself in some of the following characteristics, we will be happy to meet you:
Great communication skills
Proficiency in scripting languages such as Typescript, Python, Ruby
Solid understanding of AI technologies, frameworks, and methodologies
Experience with integrating AI workflows into software products
Some experience in writing automated evaluations
An interest in educating others and helping your team grow together
A drive to improve both technical architecture and development processes
