Life360 delivers peace of mind and enhances everyday family life with seamless coordination for all the moments that matter, big and small. By continuing to innovate and deliver for our customers, we have become a household name and the must-have mobile-based membership for families (and those friends who are basically family).
Life360 has more than 500 (and growing!) remote-first employees. For more information, please visit life360.com.
Life360 is a Remote First company, which means a remote work environment will be the primary experience for all employees. All positions, unless otherwise specified, can be performed remotely (within the US and Canada) regardless of any specified location above.
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.
The Experimentation & Machine Learning Intelligence team at Life360 sits within the Growth org and builds the platforms and services that let the company learn and personalize at scale. We own the experimentation platform (A/B testing, feature flagging, metrics and analysis) and the infrastructure behind our recommendation and personalization systems — the data pipelines, feature stores, and online serving paths that turn signals into better member experiences. Our work helps every product team ship with confidence and measure real impact for the families who rely on Life360.
We are a product-minded, AI-Native engineering team. That means AI isn’t just a tool we use — it’s how we work. We’ve redesigned our team workflows around AI, treating it as a first-class collaborator at every stage: ideation, coding, testing, review, and iteration. We ship faster and go deeper because of it, and we’re looking for someone who wants to help define what that looks like at scale.
Life360 is hiring a backend AI-Native Senior Software Engineer II — a senior engineer who doesn’t just use AI tools, but thinks natively in them. You'll be central to how the team builds its experimentation and ML infrastructure, develops its services, and how we use AI for development in the future.
You'll design and build the systems that power experimentation and recommendation at Life360 — high-throughput data pipelines, low-latency serving services, feature infrastructure, and the alerting and monitoring that keep them reliable. Our serving infrastructure runs at consumer internet scale, where milliseconds matter and an experimental misconfiguration can affect the experience of millions of families within hours.
You’ll build and evolve our modern AI-Native engineering workflows — from how we write code, to how we run standups, to how we think about team velocity. You'll publish AI-native backend engineering playbooks the broader eng org adopts.
In year one, success looks like having shipped meaningful improvements to the experimentation platform, established agentic workflow playbooks the broader engineering org can adopt, and operating with demonstrably higher velocity than a non-AI-native engineer in a comparable role.
For candidates based in the US, the salary range for this position is $118,500 to $216,500 USD. For candidates based out of Canada, the salary range for this position is $171,500 to $201,000 CAD. Note: Please be aware that the job title for positions in Canada will be "Developer" in lieu of "Engineer." We take into consideration an individual's background and experience in determining final salary - therefore, base pay offered may vary considerably depending on geographic location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. The compensation package includes a wide range of medical, dental, vision, financial, and other benefits, as well as equity.
We use AI coding tools as a professional standard on this team. Here's what that means in practice:
Our company’s mission driven culture is guided by our shared values to create a trusted work environment where you can bring your authentic self to work and make a positive difference
We believe that different ideas, perspectives and backgrounds create a stronger and more creative work environment that delivers better results. Together, we continue to build an inclusive culture that encourages, supports, and celebrates the diverse voices of our employees. It fuels our innovation and connects us closer to our customers and the communities we serve. We strive to create a workplace that reflects the communities we serve and where everyone feels empowered to bring their authentic best selves to work.
We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at Life360. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status or any legally protected status.
We encourage people of all backgrounds to apply. We believe that a diversity of perspectives and experiences create a foundation for the best ideas. Come join us in building something meaningful. Even if you don’t meet 100% of the below qualifications, you should still seriously consider applying!
