About the job

We’re an early-stage AI company backed by top-tier investors and world-class angels, including Pear VC. We’re working with forward-leaning customers who are aggressively adopting AI at scale, building systems at the frontier of what’s possible.

Our founding team comes from Google, Facebook, Airbnb, Snap and Roblox — veteran builders who’ve shipped large-scale, high-impact products. We’re now assembling a small, exceptional team to build a category-defining AI company.

If you want to build from zero, move fast, learn faster, and take true ownership with founding-level equity, this is one of those once-in-a-decade moments.

What You’ll Do

Build core systems powering next-generation intelligent agent capabilities
Rapidly prototype, iterate, and ship production features used by enterprise customers
Work directly with founders to shape product, architecture, and culture
Collaborate with customers to deeply understand workflows and pain points
Explore emerging techniques in reasoning, orchestration, and multi-agent behavior
Operate with extreme autonomy — owning projects end-to-end from idea → value

Who You Are

1–7 years of strong engineering experience
Fast learner who thrives in ambiguity and loves figuring things out
Obsessed with customers — eager to talk to users and ship solutions they rely on
Hands-on builder comfortable moving from prototype → production quickly
Strong fundamentals across Python, TypeScript, backend systems, or infra
Great team player who enjoys collaborating in a high-velocity environment

Why This Role Is Rare

Backed by elite VCs and top angel operators
Selected into one of the most competitive accelerator cohorts globally
Founding-level equity and true ownership
Strong early traction with high-caliber early customers
Small, elite team — your work will define the company
Massive whitespace in a rapidly shifting market
The chance to build foundational AI systems at the frontier
