Software Engineer at fieldnation

<p><strong>Who we are:</strong></p> <p>Field Nation brings companies and service professionals together through an integrated, easy-to-use platform. We support businesses looking to grow their service offerings while also empowering technicians to leverage their skills on their own terms. Our mission is to help the service delivery industry do great work, and we live that mission by doing great work for the companies and service professionals that depend on us.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Why this role is important to Field Nation:</strong></p> <p>Field Nation is looking for a Software Engineer who is eager to build, learn, and grow on a team that’s shaping how modern software gets made. This role is for engineers who deliver solid, well-tested work and want to develop into the next generation of technical leaders at Field Nation.</p> <p>As an AI-forward engineer, you will treat AI coding agents and LLMs as part of your everyday toolkit. You will learn to use these tools effectively under a “human-in-the-loop” model—moving faster while staying responsible for what you ship.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> What you'll get to do: • Collaborate with Product & Design: Partner closely with Product Managers and UX Designers to translate user needs and product visions into technical requirements and digital experiences. • Build and Ship: Develop, test, and deliver features, bug fixes, and improvements across our products with guidance from senior teammates. • Use AI Tools Effectively: Work alongside AI coding agents in your daily development—writing good prompts, reviewing generated code carefully, and learning the patterns that work. • Write Quality Code: Produce code that is readable, tested, and maintainable. Take feedback in code review seriously and apply what you learn. • Own Your Work: Stay accountable for the quality, security, and performance of the code you commit, regardless of how much was generated by an AI agent. • Participate in Design: Contribute to technical discussions and design reviews. Ask questions, share your perspective, and help your team make better decisions. • Support the Team: Help with on-call, debugging, and operational work. Treat reliability and the user experience as part of your job, not someone else’s. • Grow Continuously: Pair with senior engineers, follow our engineering best practices, and steadily expand the set of problems you can tackle independently. You might be a good fit if you have: • Foundational Experience: 1–3 years of professional software development experience, or equivalent demonstrated ability. • AI-Forward Mindset: Curiosity about and willingness to use AI coding agents as a core part of how you work, paired with a healthy skepticism about their output. • Solid Fundamentals: Comfortable with data structures, algorithms, version control (Git), testing, and debugging. • Working Knowledge of the Stack: Experience with at least some of our core technologies (PHP, Python, Go, Node.js, React) and motivation to learn the rest. • Cloud Awareness: Some exposure to cloud platforms (AWS preferred) or a clear desire to develop that experience. • Clear Communication: Ability to ask good questions, explain what you’re working on, and write clear commits, PRs, and short design notes. • Growth Mindset: Open to feedback, willing to be wrong, and committed to getting better—both as an engineer and as a teammate. Why we think you'll love it here: • Unlimited paid time off • Annual vacation bonus - yes, we’ll pay you a bonus to take paid time off! • Individualized growth + development plans • Strong values around work/life balance • Community involvement opportunities • Competitive benefits: medical, dental, vision, paid parental leave + 401K • Exposure to cutting-edge technologies to solve meaningful problems
