Founding Product Engineer

Conductor lets you run a team of coding agents on your Mac. We launched a few months ago, and are now used by engineers at leading companies like Linear, Vercel, Notion, Stripe, and Y Combinator. One user told us: A huge amount of my work now is wildly parallelized, in a way I've never had to worry about before. It's been a while since a dev tool has changed my life [like Conductor did].

About the role

We're looking for a scrappy jack of all trades: an idea generator, an explorer, someone who can talk with users, design, prototype, and then actually build a beautiful product. You're probably a good fit if some or all of these are true:

• You like to move fast
• You have strong opinions about software
• You have deep technical expertise
• You use AI tools conscientiously
• You feel like your work reflects some part of who you are
• You have startup experience

Requirements

No AI experience needed, just some enthusiasm for the awesome alien power of LLMs.

About Us

Charlie and Jackson met eight years ago when they played ultimate frisbee together at Brown. Last year, they quit their jobs at Point72 and Netflix to start Conductor together. Our team is small, so there is a lot of room to grow!

• We ship unusually fast
• We’re backed by some of the best investors in the valley. We have plenty of money to keep the company running through rough patches
• We work in person in our beautiful San Francisco office

What we offer

Health care: Aetna PPO $500
Dental: Guardian PPO 2000
Vision: Guardian VSP Vision (Choice)

Real Health Care: sleep, nutrition, exercise, social support. We try to make Conductor a strongly positive influence on all those fronts.

Other

We trust our team with an extremely broad expense policy. More about our culture.

The interview

Send us a short message answering one of these questions:

• What’s your favorite piece of software, and what do you like about it?
• What’s something you’re actively learning right now, either for work or just for fun?
• If you’ve used Conductor before: What was confusing? What would you like to change about it?

If you’re a human, we recommend you do not use AI—nearly always, we’d rather read human writing than AI writing. (Yes, we can tell the difference.) If you have a personal website or Twitter profile, please include a link.
