[Remote] Senior Software Engineer II (AI Native)

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Life360 is hiring an AI-Native Senior Software Engineer II for its Verticals team. The role builds end-to-end experiences initially focused on aging in place, owns features through production, and helps establish AI-native engineering workflows and practices.

Responsibilities

• Ship end-to-end across the stack — from backend services and APIs through to the iOS and Android surfaces members actually use — moving fluidly between layers as the feature demands
• Work with AI (Claude Code) as a first-class collaborator — your primary workflow involves orchestrating agents to create specs, generate results, and perform reviews
• Help define and codify AI-Native engineering practices for the Verticals team, establishing playbooks the broader org can adopt
• Build across the full stack (backend & Native mobile)— shipping polished, performant, and reliable experiences to tens of millions of users
• Collaborate closely with product managers and designers to turn complex user problems into elegant, scalable engineering solutions
• Contribute to architectural decisions, code reviews, and a culture of craft and continuous improvement
• Participate in on-call rotation and incident response
• Use agentic workflows to dramatically increase the delivery of strong outcomes — moving faster without sacrificing quality
• Mentor team members and contribute to team processes, technical standards, and help evolve the team's AI-native engineering practices
• Support performance, reliability, and accessibility across the features you own
• Adapt patterns and services built for Aging in Place to future verticals (Things, Pets) as team scope expands

Skills

• 5+ years of experience building and operating high-quality, consumer-scale services
• 1+ years of hands-on experience prompting, evaluating, and building with LLMs
• Full-stack proficiency spanning backend services and mobile client development (iOS and/or Android), with the versatility to work across the whole stack as needed
• Deep experience with agentic workflows, prompt engineering, context window management, and MCP/function calling
• A track record of using AI tooling to multiply your own output — not just as autocomplete, but as a genuine development partner
• A strong sense of ownership — you don't wait to be told what to fix, and you follow through past "it works on my machine" to "it works for the member, in production, at scale."
• Strong communication and collaboration skills — you work well with product, design, and platform engineers
• A genuine excitement for defining what it means to be AI-Native — you're not waiting for the playbook, you want to write it
• Empathy for the humans behind the product — an aging parent trying to stay independent, or a family member trying to help from afar
• Bachelor's Degree in a Technical field, or equivalent experience
• Daily use: You use AI coding assistants (we support Claude Code, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot) for real, substantive tasks: analysis, coding, refactoring, testing, navigating codebases, and documentation. Not just research or autocomplete
• Judgment and ownership: AI-generated code gets the same review you'd give any PR. You are accountable for everything you ship
• Velocity: We expect senior engineers who use AI well to operate with meaningful leverage — doing more with the same time, taking on problems that would otherwise require a larger team
• Team leadership: You share what works. You automate prompting strategies that others can build on and help teammates earlier in their AI workflow adoption get up to speed
• Continuous learning: The tooling is changing fast. You stay current and bring recommendations to the team when something would meaningfully improve how we work
• Full-stack experience is strongly preferred for this role — you should be comfortable moving between backend services and the mobile surfaces that expose them

Benefits

• Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)
• Medical, dental, vision, life and disability insurance plans (100% paid for US employees).
• Life and disability as well as supplemental plans for medical and dental for Canadian employees.
• 401(k) plan with company matching program in the US
• RRSP with DPSP plan for Canadian employees
• Paid parental leave.
• Mental Wellness Program & Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for mental well-being.
• Generous time off: flexible PTO, companywide holidays throughout the year plus summer and winter shutdowns.
• Learning & Development programs.
• Equipment, tools, and reimbursement support for a productive remote environment.
• Free Life360 Platinum Membership and Tile trackers.
• Remote-first work environment; remote work within the US and Canada.
