Company mission
To help L&D teams move beyond one-off trainings to make learning part of everyday work.
Role
Who you are
- Advanced software engineering background building production systems with PHP and JS/TS
- Hands-on experience running end-to-end workflows with AI coding agents (Claude Code, ChatGPT/Codex, Cursor, Copilot)
- Sharp engineering judgment to review agent output, debug edge cases, and own final code quality
- Ability to operate across the full stack, from backend logic to clean UI components
- Autonomous, outcome-driven mindset with clear communication in a hybrid team
- Experience in L&D or HR tech space is a plus
- Typically requires 5+ years of software engineering experience in high-growth B2B SaaS
- Fluent in English; additional languages are an advantage
- We value our diverse and inclusive workforce and encourage you to apply even if you don't meet 100% of the listed qualifications, but feel passionate and excited about the opportunity
What the job involves
- We are seeking an experienced Full Stack Engineer who is excited about AI-assisted and agent-driven development, while still thinking like an engineer: understanding systems, making good tradeoffs, testing, debugging, simplifying, and taking responsibility for code that runs in production
- Reporting to the Head of Engineering, you will drive AI-native feature development and turn complex user needs into shipped production code
- In this role, you will be working on both the core platform and new AI-powered workflows for our users, and organizations
- Implementing full stack features across PHP, TypeScript/JavaScript
- Collaborating closely with product, design, and other engineers
- Orchestrate agents end-to-end: spec-first, AI-assisted planning, agentic execution, AI-assisted review, full-loop validation - you direct the work
- Building AI-assisted features into the Howspace platform
- Developing agentic and chatbot-based workflows for real production use
- Designing APIs, building MCP-servers, integrations and background jobs
- Improving architecture, maintainability, reliability, and test coverage
- Build the guardrails (specs, checks, validation loops) that make agents reliable, and catch output that's wrong even when it looks right
- Be part of the team that constantly reviews and improves agentic-development practices by sharing best practices and pushing the standard higher
Application process
- We encourage you to send in your application as soon as possible, as we will go through the applications on an ongoing basis
Our take
With major clients including the United Nations, Howspace is a platform for companies who want to develop more digital engagement with their employees, especially in the remote and hybrid working world. With tools that help with company learning and education into its values and mission, change management, and strategic planning, Howspace unifies what is often a collection of unconnected tools.
As a more formalised and focused version of Slack, Howspace distinguishes itself in a crowded remote work tool marketplace with the use of background AI, helping to scale and facilitate remote interactions. Its various uses also help with employee onboarding and learning sessions, bringing a sense of unity to the remote work world.
Its founding dates back to 2008 so it’s no wonder that it took nine years to reach seed funding. As technology has caught up with its aspirations, Howspace received a total sum of $16.5 million between 2017 and 2021, when the remote work boom really took off, setting the company up very nicely for a promising future.
