  • Working directly with enterprise customers to understand their workflows and technical challenges
  • Identifying opportunities to automate complex processes using AI agents

  • Feeding insights back into the core product to shape its development

What they're looking for

  • Experience building and shipping production software
  • Exposure to LLMs, AI agents and AI-powered applications
  • Strong API integration and backend engineering skills
  • Someone comfortable working directly with customers and translating business problems into code
  • A self-starter who thrives in ambiguity and enjoys owning problems end-to-end

Why this one’s worth a look

  • Founding FDE hire with significant ownership and influence
  • Work directly with enterprise customers and the founding team
  • Build and deploy AI agents solving real commercial problems
  • Founders with backgrounds at OpenAI, Google DeepMind, Anthropic and Scope
  • Genuine opportunity to shape the product as the company scales
