About the role

What you'll do

  • Build across the product: web with React, Next.js, Prisma, and SWR; desktop with Electron and Swift; and mobile with React Native.
  • Take on ambiguous problems, figure out the right approach, and ship them across the full stack.
  • Set technical direction, not just execute it.
  • Work on AI-powered workflows, search, transcription, automations, and performance.
  • Raise the engineering bar through code review, mentorship, and shared tooling.
  • Experiment with the latest AI models and help decide what's worth building.
  • Work directly with the founders. No layers or handoffs.

You might be a good fit if

  • You have 3-5+ years of experience shipping production software and owning real outcomes.
  • You have strong product judgment and enjoy making decisions, not just implementing them.
  • You think about systems, leverage, and long-term engineering quality.
  • You're low ego, direct, and comfortable operating without much process.
  • You're excited by how AI is changing both products and software engineering.
  • People who've done well here have often been former founders, early startup engineers, or engineers who've owned major systems end-to-end.
