Overview
Our client, a YC-backed startup with a recent $6M seed round, is on a mission to empower non-technical founders to turn ideas into scalable software businesses. Their platform bridges the gap between AI-generated code and production-ready products - delivering not just the build, but the infrastructure, tooling, and go-to-market support to help new companies succeed. This is a rare opportunity to join a high-caliber founding team (ex-serial founders with a decade of working together) and work on deep, complex engineering problems that make sophisticated tech invisible to end users. What you’ll do
Design and build full-stack features from scratch - front-end, back-end, infra, and architecture Architect modular, reusable systems that scale Work closely with product and design to ship quickly without sacrificing quality Collaborate with a small, senior team that values high autonomy and zero fluff Keep pace with the latest technologies and contribute to technical direction Take ownership end-to-end - no “just my piece of the stack” mentality What we’re looking for
4-10 years’ experience in software engineering, with strong CS fundamentals Proven 0-to-1 product experience (ideally as a Founding Engineer or early hire at a VC-backed startup) Fluency in
TypeScript
and
React
(React Native a plus) Experience with
AWS ,
Docker ,
Postgres , and scalable architectures Ability to operate without heavy reliance on AI coding tools - you can code and architect from scratch Strong communicator who thrives in high-autonomy, fast-paced environments Based in or willing to relocate to SF (remote possible for exceptional candidates who can attend 3-day on-site sprints monthly) Be part of a
high-bar engineering culture
- every teammate is senior-level or above Ship products that help thousands of founders bring their ideas to life Competitive comp - salary at the 90th percentile for top performers, plus meaningful equity Work directly with the founders to shape the company’s technical future No bureaucracy, no layers - just a flat, hands-on team moving fast Seniority level
Mid-Senior level Employment type
Full-time Job function
