About Life360

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) regardless of any specified location above.

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

Our Infrastructure Operating Group owns the platforms, systems, and tooling that Life360’s engineering, product, and design teams build on every day, from build/deploy pipelines and internal tools to the reliability behind an app that tens of millions of families trust with their safety. We treat infrastructure as a competitive advantage, not a cost center: our real product is the velocity at which we can build a great experience for our members, so we obsess over developer experience and the systems that they build on, including the move to AI-native ways of working.

We hold ourselves to a high standard of craft and have direct, honest conversations about quality, scope, and trade-offs because we care about building things that last. Life360 is scaling fast, and this team will be at the center of that growth, unlocking what the rest of the company can build, including the next wave of AI-powered features.
