Founding Full-Stack Engineer

$180k - $240k
Full-time

True Talent Solutions Partners

About the Role

Join an early-stage industrial AI team building wearable tools for field technicians. You will own the product layer around the AI system, connecting smart glasses, backend services, and companion apps into a reliable experience that works in the field.

What You'll Do

  • Build the end-to-end product experience across smart glasses, backend services, and companion applications.

  • Develop and optimize real-time video and streaming pipelines with tight latency requirements.

  • Own dependable, observable backend APIs and data systems that support device and AI services.

  • Build mobile and desktop tools for device setup, monitoring, and workflow configuration.

  • Create safe deployment and release processes for software updates to devices in the field.

  • Shape product architecture and engineering practices as the team grows.

  • Investigate and resolve issues across frontend, backend, and device layers.

What We're Looking For

  • Two to five years of software engineering experience, ideally including work at an early-stage startup.

  • Experience building and shipping a complete product, including backend APIs, data systems, and a user-facing web or mobile client.

  • Strong full-stack skills and the ability to make sound architectural decisions independently.

  • Experience with modern cloud and product technologies such as TypeScript, Python, React, React Native, Node.js, AWS or GCP, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, and REST APIs.

  • Relevant experience with real-time video, streaming, low-latency systems, mobile apps, or AI-powered product features is valuable.

  • Strong computer science or engineering fundamentals, or an equivalent record of building and shipping products.

  • Interest in wearable technology, industrial AI, or tools for field operations is helpful.

Compensation & Benefits

Base salary: $180,000 to $240,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is available.
