For our customers. For the cities and communities we serve. For ourselves. As a global team, we are transforming urban mobility. Let’s grow better, together.

Role Overview

Join us at the forefront of a new era in software development. As a Software Engineer on our "AI-First" Pulse Core team, you will be a core contributor to a team that accelerates the velocity of all City’s Experience product teams by building and maintaining a robust, self-service developer platform and shared core services. We are looking for engineers who are excited to go beyond traditional coding and partner with advanced AI to build software faster and more innovatively.

You will work on a high-impact platform from scratch, contributing to a culture of "vibe coding" where you translate high-level ideas into functional, high-quality code with the help of powerful AI tools. This is a unique opportunity to build your skills at the cutting edge of the industry.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop High-Quality Features: Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested code. Our primary stack is shifting toward TypeScript and JavaScript, though you will also work with Java/Kotlin for specific backend services (such as user management epics).
• Build with AI as Your Partner: Leverage advanced generative AI tools as a primary part of your daily workflow to design, build, test, and deploy features across the full stack.
• Embrace "Vibe Coding": Work with your team to translate high-level concepts and "vibes" into working prototypes and production code, using AI to accelerate the journey from idea to impact.
• Collaborate and Learn: Actively participate in team ceremonies and contribute to a culture of continuous learning, where we constantly explore new ways to effectively partner with AI.
• Own Your Work & Infrastructure: Take full ownership of the features you build, from initial concept through to production deployment, setting up monitoring/alerting, and actively participating in team on-call rotations.

• Experience: 3-5 years of professional software engineering experience.
• AI-First Coder: You are highly proficient in using generative AI tools like Claude, Cursor, or Codex as a core part of your development workflow. You are comfortable generating entire code blocks, writing complex tests, and refactoring with AI assistance.
• Tech Stack Alignment: Strong proficiency in TypeScript and JavaScript. Professional experience or solid comfort levels with Java or Kotlin is required to support critical backend services.
• DevOps & SRE Mindset: Practical experience in production deployment, monitoring, alerting, and incident resolution. You should have a foundational understanding of containerized environments and infrastructure. Willingness to participate in on-call rotations is important.
• Adaptable and Forward-Thinking: You are excited by new technologies and are eager to be part of a team that is defining the future of software engineering.
