FreeWill is an award-winning, social-good startup that has partnered with 2,400+ nonprofits who support our mission while generating $15B in gift commitments for nonprofits since we were founded in 2017. We’ve been featured in the New York Times, Forbes, Oprah’s magazine, and our co-CEOs have even been named to Town & Country’s “Top 50 Philanthropists” list.
All of this is because we’ve figured out how to make some powerful (but complicated!) ways to donate much easier and more accessible. Our products make things easier for the donors who want to change the world and for nonprofits doing heroic work around the planet. We partner with nonprofits of all sizes to diversify fundraising across individual and institutional giving, from legacy gifts and tax-smart donations to foundation, corporate, and government grants.
In the last 9 years, we’ve grown from 5 people to 200+ (all smart, tenacious, and kind), and continue to grow. We’d love to have you be a part of this adventure. We were named a "Most Loved Workplace" by both Newsweek and Best Practice Institute and the 2025 Most Loved Workplaces® for Diversity by the Best Practice Institute. In 2026, we were named as one of Forbes' Best Startup Employers.

We’re looking for a Lead Software Engineer (AI-Native) to help us reimagine how software is built at FreeWill.
You will operate as an orchestrator of AI development systems — leveraging tools like Claude Code,Codex,Cursor, and other emerging AI-native toolchains — to rapidly rebuild and evolve our existing products. You will work in a lean, 3-4 person development pod where success is measured by how effectively you:
Translate product requirements into clear, spec-driven development workflows
Use AI systems as a force multiplier for speed and quality
Rapidly ship production-ready systems that improve user outcomes
This role reports into the R&D organization (Senior Engineering Manager) and will partner closely with product and design to deliver high-impact improvements to our existing user experiences. Together with your teammates, you will help define the AI-native playbook for how FreeWill builds software with AI going forward.
FreeWill has set compensation bands for fairness and transparency. We don’t think that an individual’s pay should be determined by how comfortable they are negotiating, so we like to be up front. The salary range for this role is $190,000 to $210,000 (plus equity and benefits).
This is a system orchestration engineering role. You are not just writing code — you are:
Defining how engineering gets done in an AI-first world
Designing systems that write code with high internal coherence
Building at 5x traditional speed with lean dev teams
If you’re excited about redefining how software development is done—removing toil, increasing time in the zone, and leveling up our engineering department through mentorship—this role is for you.
Lead AI-native software development workflows using tools like Claude Code/ Codex/Cursor to generate, iterate on, and ship production code
Mentor engineers across R&D on AI-native development practices — distill what you learn in your pod into patterns others can adopt
Translate product requirements into clear technical specs, prompts, and system instructions that guide AI-driven development
Own end-to-end delivery: from spec → agentic AI-written implementation → automated validation → production rollout
Build the harness engineering practices — embedding learnings into a clear, repeatable structure for how AI code is developed at FreeWill
Partner within a small pod to rapidly rebuild and improve existing product flows
Design systems to proactively manage potential issues with code comprehension and technical debt that are robust, testable, and maintainable
Continuously refine workflows for spec-driven development, agentic engineering, and AI-driven QA, documenting patterns and lessons learned into a repeatable playbook
7+ years of experience as a software engineer, with strong experience building and shipping production systems across the full stack
Experience cultivating a culture of mentorship and knowledge sharing across engineering teams, particularly around AI-native system orchestration best practices.
Experience building development tooling and workflows that bake quality in from the start
Demonstrated experience using agentic coding tools (e.g., Cursor, Copilot, Codex, Claude Code) in real development workflows
Familiarity with LLM behavior, evaluation, and prompt iteration techniques (chain-of-thought, few-shot examples, agentic loops)
Strong ability to write clear technical specifications and break down problems into structured, verifiable units of work
Experience working in modern web stacks (e.g., React, Node.js, TypeScript, APIs, cloud infrastructure)
Proven ability to ship quickly with high quality in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
Strong debugging and systems thinking skills — able to validate, correct, and improve AI-generated outputs for correctness, security, and performance
Comfort operating with high autonomy and minimal process on small teams, while maintaining rigor in outcomes
Strong written communication skills since much of this role involves writing clear specifications, prompts, and documentation
Experience rebuilding or refactoring existing systems or leading large-scale codebase migrations
Experience working in small, high-leverage teams (3–4 engineers)
Background in experimentation, A/B testing, or conversion optimization
Experience with AI Security best practices
Experience in the nonprofit technology or fundraising space

Claude (AI Assistant) company/team account
We are excited to engage with candidates who can demonstrate their experience and skills through their own words and work, not through AI-generated content. We want to understand your genuine interest in the company and your unique perspectives, not simply AI-driven responses. We ask that you refrain from use of AI-generated content during the hiring process which includes phone screens, video interviews, tech screens, or other assessment stages except as otherwise indicated to you by the Recruiter.
For example: Using ChatGPT to generate scripted answers to application questions or during phone screens and video interviews is strongly discouraged and will result in not moving forward in the hiring process. However, the use of an AI design tool to enhance the design of a presentation deck is permitted.
The Recruiter will be able to provide additional guidance during the hiring process if needed. If hired at FreeWill, we do encourage the use of AI in your role to build upon or enhance your skill set.
AI use by FreeWill: Our hiring process may include the use of AI- assisted tools for interview transcription, evaluation, or fraud detection. Human oversight and decision making is maintained throughout the hiring process and for all final hiring decisions. This processing is conducted in compliance with applicable Data Protection, AI Governance, and Labor Laws.
FreeWill is an equal opportunity employer and we value diversity. We are committed to finding talent that is not determined on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
We are a remote-first company with employees in the US, Brazil, Canada, and Pakistan. In the US, we are able to hire in 47 states and D.C. Unfortunately, we are unable to hire in Colorado, Alabama, or Louisiana at this time. We also can’t sponsor working visas, so all applicants will need to have work authorization in their respective country.
Don’t check off every box in the requirements listed above? Please apply anyway! Studies have shown that marginalized communities - such as women, LGBTQ+ and people of color - are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single qualification. FreeWill is dedicated to building an inclusive, diverse, equitable, and accessible workplace that fosters a sense of belonging – so if you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to still consider submitting an application. You may be just the right candidate for this role or another one of our openings!
Start with a role or skill you want to use in your next job. Use the location and role filters to narrow the results, then open a listing to review the description. A title alone rarely explains the level of responsibility, working arrangement, or experience a team needs. Compare those details before deciding which opportunities deserve a tailored application.
Employers use different titles for similar work. If an exact phrase produces no results, try a shorter title, a core skill, or an alternative name for the role. Remove one filter at a time to understand which requirement is narrowing your search. A broader search can reveal suitable work without asking you to change your actual qualifications.
For each promising listing, read the responsibilities and separate essential requirements from preferences. Note the location, schedule, employment type, and compensation when provided. Missing details are questions to confirm with the employer. A remote opening may still require a particular country, work authorization, or time-zone overlap, so check the full posting before treating it as a location-independent opportunity.
Choose a few examples that demonstrate the skills this employer names. Explain your contribution and its outcome, using accurate numbers where available. Put the most relevant experience first and keep your resume easy to scan. Avoid adding technologies, qualifications, or achievements simply because they appear in a description. Your application should make your existing strengths easier to understand.
Follow the employer’s instructions for resumes, cover letters, work samples, and screening questions. Review the exported file before submitting it: confirm that contact details are correct, text can be selected, and links reach the intended pages. A resume check can help you spot unclear writing before you apply. Its feedback is advisory and does not predict a hiring decision.
Listings are collected from external sources and may change after they appear here. The employer or recruiting destination controls whether applications are open. If an original link is unavailable, check the company’s careers page for the title or move to another opening. An employer website link is a place to check current vacancies, rather than confirmation that a particular job is still accepting applications.
Keep a simple record of the company, role, job reference, application date, and documents you sent. Record any follow-up instructions and the next action you plan to take. This makes it easier to prepare for interviews, compare opportunities, and avoid applying repeatedly to the same opening through different boards. Review your shortlist as employers update their listings and prioritize opportunities with clear requirements that match the work you want to do.
