Job description

At Remitly, we believe everyone deserves the freedom to access, move, and manage their money wherever life takes them.

If that’s you and you’re ready to do the most meaningful work of your career-we invite you to join over 2,800 passionate Remitlians worldwide who are united by our vision to transform lives with trusted financial services that transcend borders.

About the Role:

As an AI Native Software Engineer, you direct AI agents to build products and solutions, rather than writing code directly. You leverage AI coding agents to replace manual tasks, build and ship entire applications and basic agents end-to-end. You’re a full-stack product builder who thinks in terms of “I need to solve this customer problem” and orchestrates AI to get there. You are measured by the speed of delivery and the robustness of what you ship, not the volume of your commits.

  • Build complete applications, workflow automations, and basic agents within your team’s product area using AI coding agents
  • Translate customer needs into buildable specifications and ship solutions from requirements through deployment
  • Instrument solutions to track usage and outcomes, iterating based on what you learn
  • Evaluate AI-generated output against Remitly’s standards for security, privacy, reliability, and quality before shipping
  • Participate in customer conversations to understand acute problems and identify automation opportunities
  • Document your approaches, effective prompts, and patterns for the team

Requirements

  • Proficiency with AI coding agents for end-to-end application development
  • Ability to write effective prompts and iterate to achieve desired outcomes
  • Understanding of full-stack applications: frontend, backend, data, and infrastructure
  • Familiarity with common architectural patterns (web applications, APIs, databases, queues)
  • Awareness of fundamental design principles, common UI/UX patterns, and basic product development concepts
  • Ability to read and interpret basic analytics (usage metrics, conversion rates, error rates)
  • Strong communication skills and a collaborative, learning-oriented mindset
