About the role

Emergent builds autonomous coding agents that replace traditional software development by generating, testing, and deploying production applications directly from plain-language intent. Our systems run in production at global scale and are used to build millions of real applications.

Since public launch, Emergent has reached $50M ARR in 7 months. 5M+ users across 190+ countries have built 6M+ applications on Emergent. We’ve raised $100M , backed by Khosla Ventures, SoftBank, Google, Lightspeed, Prosus, Together, and Y Combinator.

We’re solving the hard part of AI-driven software creation: correctness, reliability, security, and scale in real production systems. The team is built by repeat founders, Olympiad medalists, IIT & IIM alumni, and leaders from Google, Amazon, and Dropbox.

We’re hiring builders who want ownership, speed, and impact at global scale.

What you will do?

  1. Ensure smooth performance of AI-generated applications
  2. Debug functional issues across frontend, backend, and database layers in live environments
  3. Guide users in building stable apps with our autonomous development platform
  4. Collaborate with internal teams to enhance product stability and user experience
  5. Build troubleshooting guides and quick fixes for recurring patterns

What we are looking for?

  1. 2+ years in production/application support or full-stack engineering

  2. Strong skills in React, Python, SQL

  3. Hands-on experience in web development, including building web applications and working with APIs.

  4. Excellent debugging and problem-solving ability

  5. Bachelor’s in any engineering degree or related field

You'll have the opportunity to:

  1. Work with cutting-edge technology while solving novel analytical
    challenges
  2. Shape the future of how businesses measure and optimize AI agent
    effectiveness

Perks:

  1. Hands-on experience on live projects.
  2. Mentorship from senior engineers.

 

Let’s build the future of software together.
