Full-Stack Engineer

Parakeet is the AI‑powered risk & compliance platform built for industrial enterprises. Our agent‑driven workflows cut third‑party verification and risk‑management costs by up to 50 %, unifying data from devices, vendors, and internal systems into a single source of truth.

We’re expanding our core engineering team with a pragmatic full‑stack engineer who can ship production‑ready features end‑to‑end. You’ll own services across the stack—from REST/GraphQL APIs to responsive front‑end components—and help scale a platform processing millions of risk events per day.
