                Description
                Perimeter, a biosecurity infrastructure company powered by frontier AI, is hiring a Staff Full-Stack Software Engineer to build production software that turns complex biological data into actionable intelligence.
                • Build across the full stack — from backend services and data pipelines (Python) to modern web frontends (React/TypeScript), supporting biosecurity, epidemiology, and biological surveillance workflows
                • AI-first development — expected to actively leverage generative AI tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor) to accelerate development and improve code quality
                • Own the platform — influence the technical roadmap, lead design reviews, implement CI/CD pipelines, and support production systems including on-call responsibilities
                • Cross-disciplinary collaboration — work closely with scientific and operational domain experts to translate genomic, diagnostic, and epidemiological data into robust software
                Apply directly via LinkedIn or reach out to recruiter Leah Sarfati on LinkedIn. No visa sponsorship information was listed in the posting.
