Junior Software Engineer

Junior Software Engineer

Craft Digital | Remote, US time zones

Craft Digital builds AI systems that run businesses. Voice agents, automation, CRMs, dashboards, internal tools, production-ready in weeks. We're the AI department our clients don't have.

We're looking for someone early in their career who wants a massive opportunity in AI. You've learned the basics, shipped a few small things, and you're ready to apply what you know in a real environment with senior guidance, the best tooling money can buy, and a clear path to grow.

This is the role for the person who got into engineering because they wanted to build, not because it paid well. You've been waiting for someone to actually let you ship. This is that.

What you'd actually do

• Take well-scoped tickets and ship them. Our Lead Engineer or one of the founders breaks the work down. You build it, test it, ship it.
• Live in Claude Code. Unlimited token budget, Cursor Pro, and every other tool we've found useful. Most of your day is you and Claude Code pairing on real client work.
• Learn the stack fast. Next.js, React, TypeScript, Supabase, Vercel. You don't need to be fluent on day 1, but you should be dangerous in 90 days.
• Build dashboards, integrations, and small features. Most of our work is dashboard frontends, API integrations, and the plumbing that connects them. Lots of repeatable patterns to master.
• Ask great questions, then drive yourself to the answer. We're here to guide you. We're not here to babysit. That distinction matters a lot.
• Grow into a real engineer. Within 12 to 18 months, you should be carrying features end-to-end with light review. Within 24 months, you should be reviewing other juniors' code.

You probably fit if

• You have some engineering background. CS degree, info systems, bootcamp, or self-taught with real shipped projects. We don't care where you got it, just that you have it.
• You've shipped at least a few real projects. School projects, internship work, side projects on GitHub, anything where you went from blank page to working thing.
• You know your way around Git, JavaScript or TypeScript, and at least one frontend framework (React preferred).

• You're hungry. This is your shot to apply what you've learned at a place that'll pay you to grow. You take that seriously.
• You've got real work ethic. You don't watch the clock. You finish what you start. You don't need someone reminding you to follow up.
• You're already using AI tools for your own learning and projects. If you've never opened Claude Code or Cursor, this isn't the right role.
• You can work alone without going dark. You ask questions when you're stuck (in the right channel, with context), then you push through. You don't disappear for three days and come back saying "I couldn't figure it out."

You probably don't fit if

• You need someone telling you what to do every 30 minutes.
• You go quiet when things get hard. We'd rather you ask 5 questions a day than disappear.
• You think AI tooling is "cheating" or that real engineers don't use it. Our entire workflow is built around it.
• You want a 9 to 5 with weekly check-ins and zero ambiguity. We move faster than that.
• You expect to be senior in 6 months. You can be great in 6 months. Seniority is earned over years.

Stack you'd live in

• Frontend: Next.js, React, TypeScript, Tailwind
• Backend: Supabase (Postgres, auth, edge functions), Vercel hosting
• Integrations: REST APIs, occasional MCP work via Composio
• Tooling: Claude Code (unlimited), Cursor Pro, GitHub, Linear, Slack

Comp

• Base: $65K to $85K,
• W-2, 401(k)
• Unlimited PTO, no clock-in culture
• Best AI tooling money can buy. Unlimited Claude Code, Cursor Pro, and any other tool you can make a case for.
• Real mentorship. You're working alongside our Lead Engineer and the founders. You'll learn more in 6 months here than in 2 years at a big company.

Logistics

• Remote, US time zones preferred
• Distributed team, co-founders in Fort Collins and LA
• Light travel optional

How to apply

Send us:

• A short note about a project you built (school, side, internship, anything). What did it do, what was hard about it, what would you do differently?
• A link to your GitHub or a portfolio.
• One paragraph on how you've used Claude Code, Cursor, or similar AI tools so far, even if you're just dabbling.

We don't care about your GPA. We care about whether you can build, learn, and hustle.
