We connect an organization's entire data landscape - internal systems, social signals, industry reports, consumer behavior - and surface the insights and automated workflows that used to take analysts weeks.\nWe raised $14M in seed funding, spent two years in stealth building the right thing, and we're now launching publicly. Our platform already drives 8-figure gross margin improvements for some of the world's largest retailers.\nWe're a lean, high-ownership team. If you want to see your work matter immediately, this is it.\nThe Role\nYou'll work across every layer of Merciv's platform - from backend services processing enterprise data at scale to the frontend interfaces that make intelligence accessible and actionable. Full-stack here means full ownership: you take features from idea to production and iterate directly with enterprise clients.\nThis role is for engineers who are energized by breadth, who want to understand the whole system, and who see product context as a superpower.\nWhat You'll Do\nBuild and ship features end-to-end - backend in Go/Python, frontend in React/TypeScript\n\nDesign APIs, data models, and service architectures supporting Merciv's agentic AI capabilities\n\nCreate intuitive interfaces that translate complex enterprise data into clear, actionable workflows\n\nCollaborate with ML/AI engineers to bring AI-driven features to production\n\nOwn the full lifecycle: scoping, architecture, implementation, testing, deployment, and iteration\n\nWork directly with enterprise customer feedback to understand real-world needs and shape the product\n\nContribute to infrastructure, tooling, and developer experience as we scale\n\nYou May Be a Good Fit If\nYou have 3+ years of engineering experience with meaningful work across frontend and backend\n\nYou're proficient in TypeScript/React and at least one of Go or Python\n\nYou have strong product instincts - you think about the user, not just the code\n\nYou're comfortable taking a vague problem and turning it into a shipped feature\n\nYou have experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred) and modern deployment practices\n\nFormer technical founders are encouraged to apply - we care more about what you've built than how long you've been building\n\nBonus points for:\nExperience with agentic AI systems, LLM integrations, or RAG architectures\n\nBackground in enterprise SaaS, retail tech, or data-intensive products\n\nFamiliarity with data visualization, real-time systems, or streaming architectures\n\nContributions to developer tooling, CI/CD, or infrastructure automation\n\nHow We're Different\nMost AI platforms bolt intelligence onto existing workflows. We're building the intelligence layer from scratch - connecting every data source an enterprise touches and making it actionable in real time. Our agentic infrastructure doesn't just surface insights; it acts on them. That's a harder problem, and it's the one we're solving.\nWhy Merciv\nOur platform drives 8-figure gross margin improvements for the world's largest retailers - you'll see real impact fast\n\nHard technical problems at the intersection of agentic AI, distributed systems, and enterprise data\n\nSmall team, massive surface area - you own what you build\n\nCompetitive salary, meaningful equity, benefits, flexible PTO\n\nA culture built on craft, intellectual honesty, and real human connection\n\nInterview Process\nApplication reviewed by a human\n\nIntro call with our recruiting team\n\nTechnical conversation with an engineering lead\n\nOn-site - meet the team, work through a real problem\n\nWe Encourage You to Apply\nStrong candidates don't always meet every qualification listed. If you're excited about this problem space and have the engineering fundamentals, we'd rather talk to you than not. We're building a diverse team on purpose - different perspectives make the product and the company better.\nLogistics\nOn-site in NYC, 3-5 days/week\n\nVisa sponsorship available\n\nApplications reviewed on a rolling basis\n\nMerciv is building the future of autonomous commerce. We're committed to assembling a diverse team of builders who want to revolutionize how the world does business.\nWe are an equal opportunity employer, and we do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, veteran status, disability, genetic information, or other applicable legally protected characteristic.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4447,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":3,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Market Research"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-12T02:44:29Z"},{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-25T22:18:24Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"Filed H-1B visas in the last two years","filings_12m":0,"filings_prev_12m":1,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":null,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-29T16:27:21+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":6,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.212,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":248,"expected_fill_days":30,"reasons":["conf:1","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-11-03T05:54:40Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":200000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/merciv-full-stack-engineer-ai-platform","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/merciv-full-stack-engineer-ai-platform.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-04T04:08:10Z","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":6420,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-05T00:00:00Z"}},"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":679384},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=679384"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fmerciv-full-stack-engineer-ai-platform"},{"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%2Fmerciv-full-stack-engineer-ai-platform"},{"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%2Fmerciv-full-stack-engineer-ai-platform"},{"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/merciv-full-stack-engineer-ai-platform\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fmerciv-full-stack-engineer-ai-platform"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":788962}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"merciv.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":788962},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
