$120k $150k salary + 0.5% 1.5% equity (depending on seniority) About us
Beehive is an early-stage startup building AI-powered enterprise climate risk management (ECRM) software to help companies measure and manage their climate risks. Were small, ambitious, and moving fast. Joining now means youll help shape not only the product but also the culture and trajectory of the company. Why this role
This is not a cushy big-tech role. Were being upfront: startup life can be messy. Priorities shift quickly, deadlines can be intense, and there wont always be a playbook. But if you thrive in environments where you have real ownership, direct impact, and the chance to build something that matters from the ground up, this role could be exactly what youre looking for. As our first full-time engineering hire
As our first full-time engineering hire (beyond the founding team), youll work closely with our CTO on everything from architecture to implementation. One week you might be designing a backend service to process climate model data, the next building a dashboard feature in the frontend, and the next helping debug a deployment issue. Compensation Salary:
$120k $150k to start Equity:
0.5% 1.5%, depending on experience/seniority Benefits:
Not many: this is an early stage startup that has not yet established full benefit programs. We do plan on offering 401k and healthcare shortly. If you like to own products all the way through, put things in customer hands immediately, work in two cutting edge technologies (AI + climate modeling), and work on climate-change related issues, this is going to be a great fit.
What you'll do
Design, build, and maintain full-stack featuresfrom backend APIs and data pipelines to frontend dashboards and AI-enabled features Collaborate with the CTO and product team to scope, prioritize, and deliver new features Make critical architectural decisions with a focus on scalability and reliability Write clean, testable, maintainable code across the stack Own deployment, monitoring, and debugging in production Contribute to engineering best practices and help set the tone for the team as we grow
What We're Looking For
A collaborative, problem-solving mindsetwere looking for builders, not order-takers 4+ years of experience in software engineering Must have worked at a startup with
Must have experience building AI products in their job or in a side project Must have experience using AI products like Cursor or Copilot to code Strong experience with both backend and frontend development (React, Next.js, Node.js, TypeScript, Postgres, AWS, Docker) Comfort with cloud infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines Ability to balance shipping quickly with building for long-term scalability Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, AWS (ECS, RDS, S3, CloudFront), GitHub Actions, NextAuth

In your first 3 weeks: Youve shipped a feature start to finish, from design to deployed In your first 3 months: Youve shipped major product features to production and helped improve our dev processes. In 6 months: Youre leading ownership of big parts of the stack. In 12 months: Youve played a critical role in scaling both our product and our engineering team.

Who You Are
What makes you a great candidate Excited by the idea of building in a fast-moving, high-stakes environment. We can't micro manage. Once you're up and running, you're going to own a huge amount of the product. Comfortable with ambiguity and proactive about creating clarity. We're not just feeding you bug tickets. Youre expected to come up with ideas, understand customer pains, and be creative in your own right (as well as crush bugs, obviously) Energized by solving real-world problems with code (you're going to ship in your first week.) Motivated by both the technical challenge and the climate mission. Our goal is to save our customers from billions of dollars in losses from climate disasters. If that feels important to you, this will be a great fit.
