Senior Software Engineer (TILDI)

CJ Express Group is one of Thailand's leading convenience store operators. Our Technology Innovation Lab & Decision Intelligence (TILDI) team is building an AI-powered platform for retail operations at scale across Southeast Asia.

We use a lean, AI-assisted development methodology where a small team of senior professionals delivers what traditionally requires a much larger team.

The Role:

You own features end-to-end — from understanding the business problem and designing the user experience, to planning implementation, reviewing AI-generated output, integrating backend services, and deploying to production.

You will primarily build web applications with Go and Nextjs/ Svelte, while also working across data and AI-powered workflows.

You spend more time on architecture, planning, problem-solving, create agents/ skills for web application best practice and reviewing AI-assisted implementation than simply writing code.

What You Will Do:

• Own features end-to-end across website, backend, and data layers
• Build production web applications using Nextjs and Golang
• Design scalable architecture including state management, navigation, networking, local storage and API services
• Write technical plans that translate business requirements into clear and precise implementation specifications
• Design and maintain distributed systems and event-driven architectures
• Work with event streaming and asynchronous processing
• Integrate REST APIs, backend services, and real-time data into web applications or system to system
• Integrate AI/ML capabilities into production workflows
• Design database schema with SQL and NoSQL
• Test on unit test, integration test and E2E test in real operational environments
• Improve web and backend performance, reliability, observability, and scalability
• Review AI-generated code and architecture to ensure correctness, maintainability, security, and quality
• Document reusable patterns, architecture decisions, and engineering insights that improve future development

What You Bring:

• 5+ years of software engineering experience, with strong experience building production applications
• Strong web application experience, including shipping applications to production
• Strong design frontend component, micro frontend and handle state
• Strong design APIs endpoint service anddistributed backend systems
• Strong code architecture patterns such as Clean Architecture, or similar
• Strong software design principles
• Production experience at scale — you have shipped features used by real users
• AI-assisted development fluency using tools such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Codex, or similar
• Event-driven architecture experience
• Database proficiency with PostgreSQL, Redis, and SQLite
• Experience with automated testing, including unit, integration, API, and UI testing
• Understanding of mobile CI/CD, versioning, microservice deployment, docker
• Quality-first mindset with strong ownership of reliability, maintainability, performance, and user experience

Nice to Have:

• Experience with gRPC and Protocol Buffers
• Experience with Kafka, Google Pub/Sub, RabbitMQ, or similar event streaming technologies
• Experience with Firebase or mobile observability platforms
• Computer vision or machine learning experience
• Experience integrating AI capabilities into mobile applications
• Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud platforms
• Retail or operations domain background
• Thai language ability

Why Join:

• Own complete features, not just tickets
• Build products that connect Web, Go, data, and AI
• Work with a modern AI-assisted development workflow
• Solve real operational problems used across CJ Express businesses
• Work in a small, senior engineering team where your contribution is visible
• Influence engineering architecture, standards, and development practices from an early stage
