Full-Stack Engineer (AI)
About Sobek AISobek AI is building the secure nervous system for life-sciences innovation networks and intergovernmental emergency response. Backed by $10M+ in grants and funding, we partner with globally significant organizations to accelerate mission-critical, distributed workflows with AI-while protecting IP and sensitive public-health data.The RoleWe're looking for a bedrock full-stack hire to own product surfaces end-to-end-from shaping the UI to the services and data models behind it. This is a high-impact, high-ownership role focused on turning complex, Gen AI workflows into trustworthy software.What you'll doOwn features across the stack. Take ideas from conception to production: UX flows → React/TypeScript UI → well-scoped Python/TypeScript APIs/services → production rollout and measurement.Build intuitive, data-dense interfaces. Tables, complex forms, document views, comparisons for modern Gen AI workflows, while keeping these accessible and responsive.Design and operate services. Create clear REST/gRPC/streaming endpoints, model data in SQL/NoSQl + vector stores, use queues/caches when it helps, and add tracing/metrics.AI orchestration. Extend orchestration that reliably manages multi-LLM workflows with the right controls for cost, latency, and security/auditability.Ship quickly, iterate with users. Prototype, launch behind flags, collect feedback/telemetry, and refine.Collaborate deeply. Partner with engineers across the stack to translate real needs into reliable software.Be a force multiplier. Drive reviews and ADRs across frontend and backend and set patterns others can scale.About you3+ years of full-time software engineering experience.You've owned and shipped full-stack software in production-from UI (bonus for React/TypeScript) through backend services (bonus for Python or Node.js)-and you understand the deployment pipeline in product environments where quality and speed both matter.Comfortable designing API contracts (paging, errors, retries) and debugging end-to-end with logs/traces.Can reason about concurrency, consistency, and event-driven architectures.You care about accessibility, performance, and security hygiene in production.CS degree (BS/MS) or equivalent foundation.BonusUI/UX design experience: can create wireframes, user flows, and lightweight interactive prototypesWorked with sensitive data (life sciences, government) or regulated environments (HIPAA/PHI, SOC 2/ISO).Experience instrumenting product metrics that connect UX to system behavior.Streaming/real-time patterns; virtualized data-grids; compare/diff workflows.DetailsCompensation: $170K-$230K + meaningful equityLocation: Hybrid (Seattle, WA)Benefits: 100% Company-paid premium health coverage (including dependents)Visa: We do not sponsor visas for this role at this time
