$200k - $300kJack and Jill AI
Founding Forward Deployed Engineer
You will build the frontier agentic systems that define how the most ambitious CPG brands operate. As an early hire, you will bridge the gap between customer problems and real-world impact, designing autonomous workflows that replace manual back-office tasks. You'll own features end-to-end, shipping production code daily while scaling a high-growth AI startup.
Salary: $200-300k + Equity
Location: San Francisco, USA
Why this role is remarkable:
- Join a top 10% YC W26 batch company that grew from $0 to $35k MRR in just two months with massive customer demand.
- Work alongside an elite founding team from Google and successful CPG startups, backed by Firstminute Capital and top-tier VCs.
- Experience a unique, high-intensity "996" culture where the team lives and works together in a tight-knit, high-trust environment.
What you will do:
- Direct customer engagement to map complex CPG back-office workflows into software abstractions and agentic models.
- Build and ship production-ready AI agent workflows that autonomously execute across ERPs, spreadsheets, and retailer portals.
- Improve the reliability, observability, and performance of non-deterministic distributed systems to ensure 40% profit increases for brands.
The ideal candidate:
- 2-5+ years of experience building and shipping production systems end-to-end with a strong grasp of distributed systems and API design.
- Exceptional communicator with a default-to-action mindset who thrives in ambiguous, fast-paced startup environments and complex problem-solving.
- Deep interest or experience in LLMs and agent orchestration, with the technical intensity to work tirelessly toward building a unicorn.
