Hybrid position in San Francisco.

About the role

We are building Enterprise Intelligence: an AI-native workspace that turns a company's meetings, email, documents, Slack, and operational systems into durable memory, proactive agents, and customer-specific workflows. We are looking for a Founding Engineer with 3-7 years of experience to join our founding team and help build their Enterprise Intelligence platform from the ground up. You are an entrepreneurial, product-minded full-stack engineer who has lived the 0-to-1 journey before—whether as a founder, founding engineer, or early technical hire. You thrive in ambiguity, talk directly with customers, and ship production-quality AI-powered products quickly. This is a true 0-to-1 role where you'll work across product, infrastructure, agents, evals, and customer workflows, turning early customer pull into a durable platform.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the core platform development for agents, including triggers, tools, approvals, evals, memory, observability, and workflow execution
  • End-to-end product ownership—from customer discovery and technical design through implementation, launch, and iteration
  • Work across the full stack to build core Enterprise Intelligence surfaces
  • Shape the product roadmap, technical architecture, engineering practices, and culture of the company

Requirements

  • 3-7 years of experience in full-stack engineering, AI-native
  • 0-to-1 experience as a founder or founding/early engineer at a startup
  • Shipped AI-powered product features in production
  • Full-stack proficiency

Nice-to-have

  • Worked on products at an AI lab / open-source environment
  • BS in Computer Science or equivalent technical degree
  • Experience with LLM APIs, RAG, agent orchestration, or evals
  • Immersed in the AI development ecosystem; opinionated/passionate about future of coding with AI
  • Comfortable speaking directly with customers for discovery and debugging

Pay

Salary range: $180,000–$250,000 plus equity and benefits.
