Job description

Your New team

The MavenAI Marketing Automation team empowers property managers to reach the perfect renter with data-driven, AI-powered social media content. We combine state of the art generative LLM models with real-world property data to craft engaging posts, then give customers an intuitive interface to approve and refine that content. Our teams responsibilities span multiple functions: content generation leveraging models like Anthropic’s Claude 4 and OpenAI’s GPT-4o; a Web Application utilizing a React/Tailwind frontend backed by Rails; and data integrations that ingests XML feeds and JSON APIs into MySQL for use by our AI workflows. We believe that mutual trust, relentless learning, and a bias for simplicity foster an inclusive culture where every engineer can thrive.

The Role

We’re seeking an experienced Software Engineering Lead to unite and grow these three functional areas, partner tightly with Product Management, and ensure our marketing automation suite scales reliably and elegantly. You’ll split your time between hands-on coding (≈50%), project execution (≈30%), and one-on-ones, coaching, and resource allocation (≈20%). If you excel at balancing technical vision with day-to-day delivery and are passionate about championing AI-driven developer tooling, we want to hear from you.

Lead a cross-functional engineering team across three functions: Content Generation, Application, Integrations —ensuring coverage and flexibility when priorities shift
Conduct bi-weekly 1:1s with each engineer to drive growth, unblock challenges, and build trust
Allocate resources alongside the PM to meet evolving roadmap goals
Spend ~30% of your time on specs, issue creation in Linear, and sprint planning; ~50% contributing high-quality code; balance the remainder on coaching, reviews, and process improvements
Architect and oversee the end-to-end generative workflow: from data ingestion (Sidekiq workers, MySQL) through AWS Bedrock calls to Claude 4 & GPT-4o, to content assembly and delivery
Guide the Application in evolving our React + Tailwind UI and Rails API backend, collaborating closely with design for an optimal UX
Partner with the Integrations engineer to define robust XML/JSON ingestion pipelines and data validation processes
Drive adoption of AI-powered developer tools (e.g., Cursor, OpenAI Codex) to boost team productivity and code quality

Proven track record delivering React + Tailwind front-end applications integrated with Rails backends
Experience architecting and scaling background-job-driven workflows and data ingestion pipelines
Familiarity with generative AI ecosystems and their integration patterns
Strong project management skills—comfortable writing specs, breaking down tasks, and driving sprints in Linear
A collaborative leadership style: excellent communication, empathy, and the ability to influence non-technical stakeholders
Passion for developer productivity and experience rolling out AI-based coding tools or similar innovations
