AI Product Engineer - Remote Eligible

AI Product Engineer

The traditional process for financing clean energy is manual, opaque, and slow. We've built products that solve part of that problem — now we're expanding their breadth and depth with AI.

We're hiring our first AI Product Engineer to work hand-in-hand with customers, product, commercial, and legal teams to reimagine the way transactions happen in clean energy finance, starting with diligence. You won't just be building features — you'll be co-designing the processes and systems that define how we ship high-quality AI products at Crux. Much of this framework doesn't exist yet — and you'll help invent it.

Collaborate directly with customers and internal stakeholders to design, build, and ship production-grade AI features for clean energy finance.

Lead the build-out of Crux's AI stack — from model selection to orchestration, evaluation, and iteration.

Define and refine how we bring AI products from prototype to production, establishing best practices along the way.

Build across the stack (TypeScript, React, SQL) with performance, scalability, and usability in mind.

Prototype, experiment, and test ideas rapidly — always anchored to real customer needs.

Contribute to our engineering culture through learning sessions, code reviews, and shared standards.

4+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a strong full-stack foundation (TypeScript, React, SQL)

Proven experience building and shipping production-ready AI products

Skilled with modern prototyping tools and making UX decisions for MVPs

Comfortable working directly with customers in ambiguous, fast-changing environments

Founder-level energy and ownership — you make things happen, unblock yourself, and rally others

Naturally curious, quick to learn, & willing to try new technologies

Authorized to work in the US or Canada

Extensive experience with evals & benchmarking

Experience building AI agents

Experience building engineering teams from 0 to 1

Familiarity with modern AI tooling & frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex, etc.)

Annual base salary ranges

Mid-Career: $140,000-$170,000 USD

Senior: $160,000-$200,000 USD

Equity options

Company-wide bonus tied to revenue goals

Full health benefits, 20 days PTO, 10 company holidays

Fully remote, with coworking opportunities in SF, Seattle, DC, or NYC

We're an experienced and highly collaborative team that prioritizes diversity, psychological safety, and inclusion. We encourage sharing ideas and perspectives — it's how we do our best work.
