Founding Software Engineer — San Francisco, CA (in-person)
About us
Our partner is building a one-person AI marketing service. We went from 0 to $500k ARR in 90 days while in stealth and are now assembling an all-star team to launch and scale.
The role
Work directly with the CTO to design, build, and scale the world’s first AI-native B2B content generation platform. You will own mission-critical surfaces, ship quickly, and set engineering culture from day one.
What you’ll do
- Own a core pillar such as web scraping at scale, pipeline optimization, or multimodal/voice AI interfaces
- Create novel AI-native experiences that combine text and video generativity
- Build net-new features and harden them against unexpected user behavior
- Drive ideas end to end: talk to users (if you want), translate needs into designs, and ship
You might be a fit if you have
- Excellence and ambition: you’ve been best-in-class at something and want to be the best in the world
- Unorthodox thinking: you spot non-obvious angles and move faster and smarter because of it
- Dedication: high-tempo work ethic, comfortable working most days alongside a like-minded team
- EQ and agency: you read the room, communicate crisply, and believe you can learn almost anything
- Preference for in-person collaboration in San Francisco
We’re especially excited by people who
- Live in the backend and obsess over performant, scalable systems
- Breathe Figma and care about interaction design as much as implementation
- Built their own scrapers when none existed
- Have dabbled in short-form video creation and enjoy crafting compelling content
Location and setup
In-person in San Francisco.
Compensation
Base salary: $150k–$250k, plus meaningful equity.
