Open 45d

For the right candidate, this is a genuinely unique opportunity. There are many AI startups, but few are targeting our area - we’re capturing meaningful, differentiated applications of AI.

As a Founding Engineer, you’ll be working on novel ways to use AI. Everyday you’ll have the chance to create great technology, great products, and grow as a leader:

  • Work directly with the founder and others on all areas of the product.
  • Architect, develop and maintain high-quality software. You’ll take ownership over broad areas of the development process.
  • Provide guidance and leadership to junior developers. This includes helping to hire junior developers to grow the engineering team.

We’re looking for someone:

  • Passionate
  • Thoughtful
  • Creative

Experience requirements:

  • Strong experience working with modern coding tools (such as Codex and Cursor)
  • Strong experience working with AI (such as via LangGraph or comparable systems)
  • Experience with Typescript and Python is preferred
