Job description

About this role

Join Hire Hangar and work with fast-growing global companies while building a long-term career. Job Title Full-Stack AI Engineer Location Remote Time Zone US Time Zones (EST–PST) Role Overview We are seeking a senior Full-Stack AI Engineer to join our platform team and own the end-to-end build of a data ingestion and intelligence layer for enterprise customers in the media vertical. This is a high-impact, high-ownership role at the intersection of AI, data engineering, and product. You will architect and ship pipelines that transform unstructured creative assets and ad performance data into a semantic, vector-based layer — and expose it through AI agents and a polished React frontend.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build durable, idempotent ingestion pipelines for creative and performance data at scale (queues, retries, backpressure, dedup, schema evolution)
  • Generate and manage embeddings for multi-modal creative assets; select and operate the right vector store for the workload
  • Build and maintain retrieval pipelines that serve AI agent tools with accurate, low-latency responses
  • Ship agent-style systems with tool use, state management, and multi-step reasoning workflows
  • Develop and maintain the React frontend for the creative intelligence library and query interface
  • Own the full lifecycle of your systems: design, build, deploy, monitor, and iterate

Qualifications and requirements

  • Strong TypeScript — you use types as a design tool, not a formality
  • Production experience with serverless or edge runtimes (Cloudflare Workers, Vercel, Lambda, Deno Deploy, or equivalent)
  • Demonstrated experience building durable, idempotent ingestion pipelines with queuing, retry logic, backpressure handling, deduplication, and schema evolution
  • Practical, production-level understanding of embeddings, chunking strategies, and retrieval quality tuning
  • React fluency with modern patterns and component architecture
  • prior remote work experience and be fluent with remote collaboration tools such as Slack, Zoom, Google Workspace or Linear.
