About The Company

At SproutsAI, we`re building the next generation of AI agents to automate recruiting workflows—from sourcing and scheduling to candidate recommendations and offer coordination. We`re not just building tools—we`re redesigning how hiring happens. We`re early stage, fast-moving, and deeply technical. Our founding team includes experts in AI, product, and recruiting automation. We are committed to fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace where every employee feels valued and respected. We are an equal opportunity employer and do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.

About The Role

SproutsAI seeks a Principal Engineer to shape the architecture of our AI-powered recruiting agents, ship impactful features, and collaborate closely with product and design teams. This is a high-impact, high-ownership role for an experienced leader who thrives in a fast-paced, innovative environment.

  • Drive architectural decisions and lead a small but growing team of frontend and backend engineers.
  • Own and implement end-to-end features across our AI recruiting agents, including dashboards, real-time coordination flows, and analytics.
  • Set technical direction across our stack, ensuring system design supports flexibility, performance, and scale.
  • Collaborate closely with the founding PM and designer to translate ambiguous user needs into elegant product experiences.
  • Elevate engineering standards through thoughtful code reviews, strong engineering practices, and technical mentorship.
  • Prioritize rapid iteration and smart experimentation over perfection.

Qualifications

  • 8+ years of full-stack experience, ideally in fast-paced or startup environments.
  • Fluency in the MERN stack and modern backend and frontend architectures.
  • Proven experience leading engineering teams, setting direction, and fostering growth.
  • Bachelor`s degree in Computer Science or a related field; Master`s degree preferred.
  • A passion for building products from the ground up and thriving in high-ownership environments.
  • Deep commitment to clean, maintainable code and thoughtful UX.

Skills Required

  • MERN Stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React, Node.js)
  • Modern backend and frontend architectures
  • Experience with LLMs, embeddings, scheduling logic, or agent frameworks (a plus)
  • Agile methodologies
  • Git
  • Strong problem-solving and analytical skills

Benefits

  • Generous paid time off.
  • Paid holidays.
  • Parental leave.
  • Sick leave.
  • Remote work.
  • Flexible working hours.
  • Opportunities for career advancement and training/certifications.
  • Competitive compensation package (may include bonuses and stock options).
