Founding Engineer

About the role

We need someone who operates at CTO-level. Someone who can take a vague problem, scope it, build it end-to-end, and ship something that actually provides value. Backend-heavy, AI-native, able to go full stack when needed. No hand-holding. No waiting for specs. You're a full-stack engineer, an AI engineer, and a product engineer in one person. Former founder is a strong plus.

What you'll do

• Own large parts of the product end-to-end, from user insight to production.
• Build and improve our agentic systems. Make them more accurate, more reliable, more powerful.
• Work at the frontier of AI engineering: context engineering, tool use, agent architectures.
• Talk to users. Understand their pain. Scope features that actually solve problems.
• Push AI-first development - Claude Code, coding agents, automation. You should be obsessed with scaling yourself.
• Review code fast and maintain a high bar across the codebase.

Our stack: Go backend, Vite/TypeScript frontend.

You're a fit if

• You're a razor-sharp engineer who solves hard problems fast with the code taste to review PRs at speed without dropping the bar.
• You have deep product sense. You build for users, not for code's sake.
• You love Go and care about clean, maintainable code. Backend-heavy, but not allergic to frontend.
• You've built AI products, ideally agentic systems or AI coding tools.
• You've built something from scratch: a startup, a side project, a feature that shipped. You thrive in ambiguity and don't need a PM to tell you what to build.

Additional information

AI research background or experience at an AI coding startup is a plus. But what matters most is that you're exceptional and hungry.

What you get

• Work alongside a brilliant design engineer who makes everything look and feel incredible.
• A CTO and cofounder who will push you harder than anyone has before and make you grow faster than you thought possible.
• Unlimited AI budget. We practice what we preach.
• Generous equity and comp reflecting the outsized impact this role will have.
• A seat at the table. This is a founding role, you'll shape the product and the company.
