About the Team 

At Dice, we believe that delivering an exceptional candidate experience — the end-to-end journey a job seeker takes to discover, evaluate, and land their next role — is essential to the success of our platform. This team plays a critical role in building the next generation of that experience, contributing across a modern full-stack environment. We value engineers who are curious, collaborative, and committed to making an impact for thousands of job seekers. 

We are an AI-native team. We actively use AI coding assistants (e.g., Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI) to accelerate development, sharpen code quality, and focus our energy on higher-impact engineering work. 

About the Role 

As a Software Engineer at Dice, you’ll contribute to the design, development, and delivery of high-impact product features in a modern, cloud-native stack. As a Software Engineer, you’ll be expected to provide technical support within the team by adhering to architectural decisions, working collaboratively teammates, and helping maintain a high standard of quality and maintainability. You’ll contribute cross-functionally with Product, Design, and Data partners to achieve ongoing outcomes and implement sound technical solutions.  

Being AI-native is central to how we work. We expect engineers in this role to go beyond using AI as a simple chat assistant, embracing tools like Claude Code as core parts of the development workflow to increase productivity such as automating repetitive tasks by generating skills and leveraging subagents, and apply best practices through prompt engineering to get the most out of the AI tools we use at every stage of the software lifecycle.  

Why We’re Hiring for This Role 

As we scale and modernize our platform, we’re looking for engineers who can take ownership of complex systems, communicate effectively with collaborators and team members, deploy AI-powered features, and contribute to product and architectural decisions. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working across the stack, solving real user problems, working with AI, and influencing both code and culture. 

In the Short Term, You Will: 

Ramp Up on Systems and Codebases 

Gain familiarity with our applications, services, tools, and infrastructure. Develop an understanding of how your team’s work fits into the broader product and architecture. 

Establish Technical Ownership 

Take responsibility for features and systems, provide thoughtful code reviews, and contribute to team design discussions. You’ll be trusted to make solid technical decisions and defend them clearly when needed while staying open to feedback. 

Collaborate and Align 

Work closely with engineers, product managers, designers, and stakeholders to align on priorities and deliver incremental value. Help improve the team's planning and execution rhythm. 

In the Long Term, You Will: 

Drive Technical Excellence 

Help evolve our systems through well-designed, scalable AI architecture. Reduce tech debt, improve performance, and contribute to shared engineering standards. 

Deliver Meaningful Business Impact 

Own end-to-end delivery of product features that support business goals and enhance user experience. Influence the roadmap by advocating for technical investments that align with long-term value.

  • Solid understanding of architectural patterns (event-driven, serverless, SOA, and others) 
  • Practical understanding of how to implement traditional Machine Learning models and LLMs in production, including knowledge of model selection criteria and architectural trade-offs 
  • Familiarity with AI/ML tooling such as LangChain, LangGraph, LangSmith, Vercel AI SDK, LiteLLM,or equivalent frameworks 
  • Hands-on experience deploying LLM-powered features into production, such as simple LLM API calls, RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) systems, Vector Stores, and MCP Servers 
  • Familiarity with LLM guardrails and safeguards, monitoring, and observability practices for production AI systems 

Preferred: 

  • Understanding of different programming paradigms such as OOP and Functional 
  • Experience with highly available, highly scalable SaaS applications

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
