Republic Services | AI Staff Engineer | WFH in Arizona preferably, will consider remote | $132,600- $182,250 + Bonus

We’re hiring an AI Staff Engineer to help lead the next wave of enterprise software built with GenAI and agentic AI. This is a senior technical leadership role for someone who can combine strong engineering depth with real business partnership and influence across product, data, architecture, and executive stakeholders.

You’ll work closely with business leaders, product managers, and data scientists to identify high-value opportunities where AI can reduce friction, improve efficiency, lower risk, and create measurable business impact. A big part of the role is translating ambiguous business problems into practical AI-enabled solutions and helping leaders make smart decisions about where and how to invest.

On the technical side, you’ll design and build core services, APIs, and orchestration pipelines that connect LLMs and agentic workflows to enterprise data, systems, and digital platforms. You’ll provide technical direction to distributed engineering teams, lead design and code quality practices, and help teams ship secure, scalable, production-grade solutions.

You’ll also play a key leadership role in shaping platform standards around reliability, observability, governance, and responsible AI. We want someone who can partner credibly with senior leaders, drive execution across teams, and turn GenAI from experimentation into durable business value.

I have a new role open on my team: Staff Engineer – GenAI. We’re building an enterprise-grade Agentic AI platform that helps teams build, integrate, and operationalize GenAI solutions quickly, with minimal friction. The challenge is making it work in the real world: enterprise architecture, security/compliance, governance, and operational excellence. If you’ve been the “high-leverage IC” who builds platforms other teams depend on—APIs, orchestration, standards, dev experience—this is worth a look. https://jobs.republicservices.com/us/en/job/R-174485/Staff-E...

Location: Remote in the US with a preference for people Arizona (but not mandatory)

Comp Range: $132,600- $182,250 DOE.

Sponsorship: Not at this time

Hey dec-fairstreet, would you be interested in someone that could be part-time (say 20-ish hours a week). I know node, TS, and AWS very well. Not much react, but I do some Angular and have done a lot of RDMS but not postgres specifically

I have been searching for something similar. It seems like in the 90s up to the 2010s-ish there were some great books on the subject (code complete, pragmatic programmer, clean code, etc.). But I have yet to find a book of similar caliber that is a modern version of those books. Would love to see what others are reading along these line, books or other wise.

I'm an software engineer as well. I work for one of the top 3 waste management companies. I've worked on both consumer side web/mobile apps as well as operations side projects, both in hauling and MRF operations.

It can be, but in some cases there are simply no buyers at any price point. And there's no way anyone is going to spend more money building larger warehouse to hold the commodity. So it get stacked until the warehouse is full, then operators have no choice but to put it in the landfill.

Not really. The bigger problem at the moment is that the market for recycled materials has effectively disappeared. No one is buying these commodities right now. Chinese government owned businesses spent a lot of money buying US paper and plastic mills then shut them down so they could bring those industries to mainland China. Then they discovered that it wasn't as good a business as they hoped. Now they have stopped buying our recycled materials so prices have dropped. Some commodities prices have even gone negative, meaning recycling facilities are paying to have materials removed from the warehouse. So even if sorting was free, most materials are either sitting in warehouses or simply going into the landfill. source: I work in the industry.
