Our client is a fast-growing applied AI company building tools that help engineering teams automate and accelerate software development.

- Translate complex technical concepts into clear, actionable insights for a range of stakeholders
What We’re Looking For
- Strong technical foundation with experience building software systems
- Background in software engineering, solutions engineering, or a similar hybrid role
- Ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical audiences
- Comfort operating in fast-moving, ambiguous environments with a high degree of ownership
- Interest in working closely with users and solving real-world problems
Nice to Have
- Experience working in customer-facing technical roles
- Background at early-stage startups or as a founder / founding engineer
- Exposure to modern AI systems or developer tools
- History of building side projects or working across the stack
Additional Details
