About this role
FirstWork is building the next generation of agentic AI products for frontline hiring, the work that gets roughly 80% of the world's workforce hired, verified, and paid.
We're looking for a Backend Engineer to design and build the AI-powered product features that carry a worker from application to their first day on the job.
In this role, you'll build and own AI agents running in production: document, browsing, voice, and conversational; collaborating closely with product managers, designers, and the engineers building our AI infrastructure. This is a true product engineering role: you'll own features end to end, ship every week, and see your work meet real enterprise volume the day it merges. Production code, real users, real scale.
