What they're looking for
- 5+ years of software engineering experience
- Strong product engineering mindset
- Experience building and shipping production software from scratch
- Strong TypeScript experience preferred
- Comfortable owning technical decisions with minimal oversight
- Previous startup experience is highly valued
- Experience using tools such as Cursor, Claude Code or GitHub Copilot
- Engineers who thrive in ambiguity and move quickly
Bonus points for
- Founding Engineer or early startup experience
- Experience in AI, developer tools, fintech or infrastructure products
- Previous experience mentoring engineers or leading projects
- Track record of building products used at scale
Why join?
- Founded by leaders from Scale AI and Meta
- Working directly with some of the world's leading AI labs
- High ownership and genuine influence over product direction
- Small, elite team of builders
- Fast-growing business with significant funding already secured
- Competitive compensation and meaningful equity
- Opportunity to work on problems at the forefront of AI
Package
- $230,000 to $280,000 base salary
- Significant equity package
- Visa sponsorship available
- New York City or San Francisco
- 5 days per week onsite
This is the type of opportunity that rarely reaches the open market. If you're excited by ownership, ambitious teammates, and building infrastructure that helps shape the future of AI, I'd love to speak with you.
