About the Company

An early-stage (Seed, founded 2025) enterprise AI company building agents for Fortune 500 knowledge work. Its agents continuously learn an organization's proprietary procedures, data, and objectives and operate within a native office-suite work surface to perform complex, long-horizon tasks alongside humans, deployed in secure enterprise environments. The company has real revenue across multiple Fortune 500 customers on multi-year deals and is backed by leading venture investors.

Founded 2025 · 11–50 people · Industry: AI Tools

The Role

As a Member of Technical Staff, you own features end-to-end on the platform, working wherever leverage is highest across infrastructure, core features, agent configuration, and user experience. You may also work with enterprise customers in a forward-deployed capacity. Your code ships to real customers fast, and your product and technical decisions shape the company.

What you'll be doing

  • Ship features end-to-end across the full-stack TypeScript/React application, from design through implementation to production
  • Make high-judgment calls about what to build next based on customer needs, technical debt, and product opportunity
  • Work directly with Fortune 100 customers to understand their workflows and translate that into product (forward-deployed track)
  • Build the underlying infrastructure (AWS, Terraform, Kubernetes, security) that scales the product to enterprise deployment (platform track)
  • Contribute across the stack wherever you see the most leverage
  • Shape engineering culture and practices at an early-stage company

Tech stack: Full-stack TypeScript/React (FDE track); AWS, Terraform, Kubernetes, security (Platform track); LLM/agent systems

Requirements

  • Has shipped LLM/agent systems past RAG
  • Full-stack TS/React (FDE) or AWS/Terraform/K8s (Platform)
  • Track record of shipping product
  • High agency, comfort with ambiguity
  • Top AI lab or top-tier startup pedigree
  • SF in-person 5 days

Green Flags

  • Built agent systems past RAG out of personal interest.
  • Top AI lab pedigree (model lab talent bar) OR last 2 YC batch founder with shipped agentic product OR ex-Palantir/Ramp/Stripe/Databricks engineer with LLM systems work
  • Quant/HFT background.
  • Customer-facing engineering background (Palantir FDE archetype, ex-solutions engineer who transitioned from pure SWE) for the FDE persona
  • Real platform engineering depth for the Platform persona: 5+ years infra, AWS/Terraform/Kubernetes, security-oriented, has scaled large systems

Red Flags

  • Pure RAG-only candidate without agent system depth
  • MSL project manager (vs. engineer) profile.
  • Default Amazon profile without exceptional signal.
  • Master's-only candidate without strong bachelor's pedigree from Ivy+/Berkeley/Stanford/Georgia Tech/UT
  • New grad with only one notable internship and no demonstrated shipping track record

Why Join

  • Features you ship reach large enterprise customers within days — fast, high-stakes feedback on every product bet
  • Broad ownership across the full stack at an early-stage company where your decisions shape direction
  • Real enterprise traction and strong financial backing

Details

  • Location: San Francisco, CA
  • Work policy: On-site, 5 days/week
  • Compensation: $170,000–$350,000 + equity
  • Visa sponsorship: O-1 preferred · OPT supported · H-1B for exceptional candidates (transfer case-by-case)
  • Employment type: Full-time
