Full description
At Linkby, we believe great storytelling deserves to meet great audiences. We power a performance-based press release platform that helps D2C brands land editorial placements on premium publishers, but only pay for real clicks. We exist to amplify authentic voices and drive measurable impact in digital media.
About The Role
Location: North America (Canada, California, New York or Colorado), Remote-first (we have hubs in Sydney, London, Toronto and New York; occasional in-office/hybrid options)
Employment Type: Full-time
Responsibilities
Design and implement high-quality, scalable and resilient web applications.
Ship features end-to-end in partnership with product managers and designers: design APIs, optimize queries, polish UI and own the outcomes.
Deploy and manage cloud-native applications on AWS, ensuring high availability, performance, and security.
Contribute to and influence architecture decisions that will shape how we scale the marketplace over the next 12–24 months.
Build AI-powered platform capabilities - semantic matching between brands and publishers, in-app agents, campaign performance prediction, etc.
Keep the platform fast, reliable, and secure under load; proactively address bottlenecks and production issues.
Implement security best practices (e.g. OWASP guidelines) and ensure compliance with data privacy regulations (e.g. GDPR, CCPA) across all development stages, including secure coding, data encryption, and access control.
Drive continuous improvement through code reviews, agentic workflows, automated testing, and CI/CD practices.
Mentor teammates through code reviews, pairing, and career development.
About You
Proficiency in both front-end (JavaScript/TypeScript, Vue/React) and back-end (Node.js, Golang) technologies.
Fluency in databases (PostgreSQL, Clickhouse), APIs (REST/GraphQL), and cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP).
Real experience directing agentic coding workflows: you've used tools like Cursor or Claude Code to scaffold entire features, caught the subtle bugs they introduce, and know where they reliably fall short.
Proficiency operating in both human-in-the-loop and human-on-the-loop paradigms - you know when a task needs you steering every step versus when you set constraints and let an agent run, then review the output. You can articulate why you'd choose one over the other for a given problem.
Strong understanding of software engineering principles, design patterns, and best practices - AI tools make you faster, but you know what's happening under the hood and can debug a production outage at 2 AM without them.
Senior Full Stack Engineer - North America (Remote) at Linkby (Remote) — aijobsearch
Experience integrating LLM APIs or ML models into production applications - not just calling an endpoint, but handling prompt management, output validation, cost control, and graceful degradation.
Comfort working in fast-moving environments: you bias for shipping, iterate quickly, and bring others along with you.
A track record of influencing architecture, scaling systems, and making pragmatic trade-offs.
Strong communication skills: you can advocate for smart technical decisions with leadership, while ensuring the team feels heard and supported.
Bonus: background in adtech, programmatic advertising, or marketplace platforms with proven track record in developing and scaling high-traffic, large-scale applications.
If you don’t meet 100% of the above qualifications, you should still consider applying. Studies show that you can still be considered for a role if you meet just 50% of the position’s requirements.
