Senior Full Stack Engineer

Senior Full Stack Engineer (Central AI Team)

Type: Full‑time

About Shop Circle

Shop Circle is a fast‑growing AI‑driven software group on a mission to power the infrastructure of modern enterprises.

With over $200M in funding and 16 acquisitions in four years, we build and scale innovative products that enable businesses to thrive globally.

Our team is spread across Milan, London, Sarajevo, and beyond, combining diverse perspectives to create software that matters.

The Role

To accelerate the growth of our existing Business Units and maximize the value of future acquisitions, we are evolving our engineering organization.

We are hiring a Senior Full Stack Engineer to anchor our Central AI Team, acting as the technical bridge between our M&A strategy and our portfolio of products por reality.

In this highly specialized, individual contributor role, you will design resilient, scalable architectures for our highest‑growth assets and enforce elite code quality standards across our portfolio.

Working alongside the Director of AI, you will provide the hands‑on technical execution needed to future‑proof our acquisitions and drive high‑leverage architectural direction.

If you are a builder who thrives on cross‑vertical complexity, rapid execution, and deploying high‑impact technical judgment without the overhead of management, this role is for you.

What you’ll do

• Evolve and scale the technical foundations of our high‑growth assets. You will lead the modernization of our front‑end and back‑end codebases, resolving architectural bottlenecks to unlock new revenue‑generating features.
• Establish and implement shared infrastructure and robust architectural patterns across our suite of products. Your work will create a high‑performing engineering ecosystem that enables teams to build and ship faster.

Support M&A Technical Integration

• Act as the technical anchor during the post‑close phase of newly acquired assets. You will assess unfamiliar codebases, introduce our established architectural patterns, and elevate engineering standards to align with our centralized benchmarks.

Deliver Immediate AI Impact

• Architect and ship tangible, high‑leverage AI capabilities post acquisition. You will turn strategy into working code that demonstrates immediate value and signals technical momentum.

Partner on AI Execution

• Act as the hands‑on technical counterpart to the Director of AI. While they provide the product and strategic lens, you will be responsible for the swift, resilient, and scalable technical execution across the entire portfolio.

What you bring

• 8+ years of Software Engineering experience: You have navigated architectural decisions at scale and had to live with them. You know what good looks like because you’ve seen what bad costs.
• You design resilient, scalable systems across the entire stack. You don't just write code; you establish shared infrastructure patterns and modernize legacy front‑end architectures to eliminate technical bottlenecks and accelerate the delivery of revenue‑generating features.
• An AI‑Native Mindset: You use AI coding tools as a natural, compounding part of your workflow, not as a novelty. You have successfully introduced innovative features into products and understand where AI adds leverage versus where it introduces risk.
• Cross-Product or Acquisition Experience: You have either joined a company through an acquisition or successfully worked across multiple product codebases simultaneously. You understand the compounding cost of technical fragmentation.
• Extreme Adaptability: You have the ability to move swiftly and confidently within unfamiliar codebases.

Why Shop Circle

• Direct exposure to multiple products and businesses — no single‑product tunnel vision.
• Real ownership and visible business impact from day one.
• A fast‑moving, international environment where applied AI actually ships.
• Competitive compensation and long‑term growth opportunities.
