You will work across the stack to build software that solves real problems for customers, making architectural decisions, shipping code, and iterating based on what you learn. The boundary between product thinking and engineering execution does not exist here; you operate across both.\nThis is an AI-native engineering role. You understand how AI reshapes the development lifecycle and have already embraced it. You specify intent clearly, delegate implementation, and focus your judgment on evaluation and refinement. You may be early in your career, but you have seen what this way of working unlocks and you are not going back to traditional approaches.\nThis role is designed for someone with strong fundamentals, high learning velocity, and the drive to work across the full surface area of a distributed system. You will not be pigeonholed into one area. Over time, you will work on control plane services, infrastructure integration, data pipelines, and tooling, depending on where the team needs support and where your interests develop. We are looking for raw capability and speed rather than a specific specialization. If you have the foundations and the drive, we will help you build depth.\nWhat You'll Do\nYou will build the platform that enterprises trust to manage their agentic systems, contributing across backend services, infrastructure, and tooling as priorities shift. You will own features end-to-end, shipping production code and learning from how it performs. You will develop distributed systems intuition by building them: state reconciliation, failure handling, API design. You will work directly with senior engineers and founders, absorbing context and contributing to architecture discussions. You will help establish the technical foundations and engineering culture of a company in its earliest stages.\nWhat You'll Bring\nYou have strong fundamentals in computer science or software engineering, whether from a degree, bootcamp, or self-directed learning.\n\nYou can write clean code in at least one language and are ready to learn Go if you do not already know it.\n\nYou understand how computers and networks actually work: processes, memory, TCP, HTTP, DNS.\n\nYou have built something, whether a side project, open source contribution, or internship work, that demonstrates you can ship software.\n\nYou have adopted an AI-native development workflow and can show what it enables you to deliver.\n\nYou use AI tools to specify, build, and validate, and you are faster and more capable because of it.\n\nYou debug methodically rather than randomly changing things until something works.\n\nYou communicate clearly, ask good questions, and work effectively with others.\n\nWhat We're Not Looking For\nWe are not looking for years of professional experience or expertise in our specific stack. We are not looking for someone who needs detailed instructions for every task. We are not looking for credentials over capability. If you have been writing software seriously for a year and can out-build people with five years of experience, we want to talk to you.\nHow We Work\nWe are building a company for the long term, not optimizing for unsustainable sprints. We believe the best work comes from professionals who have the space to think deeply, maintain their lives outside of work, and bring their full capabilities to hard problems. We are remote-friendly and trust our team to manage their time and energy effectively. We value clarity over consensus, direct feedback over politics, and shipping over theorizing.\nWhat We Offer\nWe provide competitive compensation including meaningful equity. You are joining as a founder-level contributor. We offer comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage. We support flexible working arrangements with a remote-friendly culture. We provide the equipment and tools you need to do your best work.\nEqual Opportunity\nDome Systems is an equal opportunity employer. We evaluate candidates based on capability, not credentials. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and are committed to building a diverse team.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4149,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Flexible schedule"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Artificial Intelligence","AI Agents","AI Governance & Compliance"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-01T20:56:49Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":6,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.2,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":259,"expected_fill_days":33,"reasons":["conf:1","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-13T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/dome-systems-product-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/dome-systems-product-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-13T21:34:45Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":33030,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-14T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":2063781},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=2063781"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fdome-systems-product-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fdome-systems-product-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fdome-systems-product-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/dome-systems-product-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fdome-systems-product-engineer"}]}
