Our Client, a Digital Media company, is looking for a Sr Software Systems Engineer (Desktop AI app) for their Remote(EST city) location.
Responsibilities:
Build features, fix bugs, and ship product on the Desktop browser application (macOS/Windows), which is built on top of Chromium.
Use AI coding tools (Claude Code, Codex) to write and maintain high-quality, efficient code our team does not write code by hand.
Work across layers of the Desktop app from UI components and browser chrome to backend service integrations using AI tools to ramp quickly on unfamiliar areas.
Debug and resolve issues related to rendering, networking, and system integration on desktop platforms.
Participate in code reviews as applicable, weekly meetings, daily standups, and weekly demos (Fridays).
Occasionally work across platform boundaries when needed (e.g., touching backend services or shared code used by other platforms).
Desktop browser feature development: AI-driven features, custom browser UI, and service integrations
Performance, stability, and quality improvements across the Desktop app
Developer tooling, CI/CD, and build system improvements as needed
Feature velocity — shipping user-facing desktop features within our 1-week cycle cadence
Effective use of AI coding tools leveraging agents for implementation, managing multiple agent sessions, and maintaining quality through review
Requirements:
Ability to ramp quickly on unfamiliar parts of the codebase using AI tools to bridge knowledge gaps
Quality — PRs pass CI, don't regress existing features, and follow established convention
PRs shipped per week
Stability metrics crash rates, bug count, CI pass rate on desktop builds
Peer feedback and ability to unblock other engineers
6+ years of professional software engineering experience
Strong proficiency in at least one systems or application programming language (e.g., Swift, C++, Rust, C#, or similar) — the Desktop app uses Swift (macOS) and C++ but AI tools help bridge language gaps
Experience building and shipping complex desktop applications on macOS and/or Windows
Strong problem-solving skills and comfort navigating large, unfamiliar codebases
Willingness and ability to use AI coding tools (Claude Code) as the primary development method — this is non-negotiable
