We are AI Native

We are building an AI native company where AI is an integral part of how we build and operate. AI tool usage during interviews varies by role. You may be asked to demonstrate proficiency with AI tools, discuss how you leverage AI, or complete interview exercises without AI assistance. Your Recruiter will provide clear guidance as you move through the interview process.

Undisclosed use of AI not previously discussed with or approved by your Recruiter may impact your candidacy.

About The Team

The Devices Cloud team owns the backend services that power Life360's fleet of connected hardware — Tile trackers, Jiobit wearables, Pet GPS trackers, and emerging device categories. We manage real-time device state, high-frequency telemetry ingest, and the cloud infrastructure that translates physical-world signals into reliable, family-facing experiences. Our work sits at the intersection of hardware, firmware, mobile, and platform — and runs at a scale where correctness and reliability aren't optional.

We are an AI-Native team. AI isn't an add-on to how we work — it's how we work. We've redesigned our development workflows around AI, using it as a first-class collaborator at every stage: spec writing, code generation, test authoring, incident triage, and system design. We ship faster and go deeper because of it. We're looking for engineers who want to help define what AI-native backend development looks like for complex, hardware-connected systems.

About the Job

As a Backend Engineer II on the Devices Cloud team, you will build and improve the cloud services that power Life360's connected hardware — Tile trackers, Jiobit wearables, and emerging device categories. You own well-defined components and features across device state management, telemetry ingest, and the integration layer that connects physical hardware to family-facing experiences.

You work with growing independence. You contribute to technical designs, own smaller designs yourself, break down tasks, and deliver reliable, well-tested code with occasional guidance from senior engineers. You collaborate with firmware, mobile, platform, and data teams, and you continue to deepen your technical skills. Your work helps power experiences for tens of millions of families daily.

You are also growing as an AI-native engineer. You use AI as a first-class collaborator across coding, testing, and debugging, learn the practices that work on the team, and take full ownership of everything you ship.
