Open Call for Founders / Founding Teams

Open call for founders and small founding teams (PM and engineering) to build and ship autonomous AI products at Mercury. Requires shipping real products, cross-stack skills, strong AI opinions, fast experimentation, and outcome ownership.

About the job

Responsibilities

  • Find the problem by working close to customers to spot opportunities before they are assigned.
  • Build and automate workflows end-to-end using Command, CLI, MCP, and the AI stack.
  • Ship to customers quickly with tight iteration and deployment.
  • Measure impact honestly, kill unsuccessful experiments, and double down on what works.
  • Run as an autonomous team: select targets, ship products, and own outcomes.

Requirements

  • Have shipped something real — a product, tool, company, or open-source project that people actually use.
  • Be dangerous across the stack: PMs who can prototype, engineers with strong product taste.
  • Have strong opinions about AI products and the judgment to recognize when one is wrong.
  • Move fast, measure results, and expect most experiments to fail as the cost of success.
  • Care about craft where it is impactful and avoid over-polishing.
  • Communicate clearly and own outcomes with focus on real business impact, customer time/pain saved, and scaling what works.

Nice-to-Haves

  • Hands-on experience building AI products with AI.
  • Knowledge about RAG, evals, agent harnesses.
