About

Role Overview You’ll join a team of 6 engineers, all startup veterans, as a senior IC. We’re looking for someone who leans full‑stack but brings backend strength, the kind of engineer who can design clean, simple systems and ship customer‑facing features end to end. As an early team member, you’ll own significant pieces of the product and shape how we build. You should be the kind of engineer who dreams about talking to customers and iterating until the customer is calling you personally to say thanks.
Near‑term work
Building agents that proactively draft outreach for sales reps when market signals fire — like a new trade lane opening up
Developing AI‑powered account research and scoring that automatically qualifies prospects
Scaling our data pipelines and backend systems as our customer base grows
Our stack:
Node.js, Next.js, Dagster, Heroku, AWS.
You'll Love This Job If
You're “6 hour business podcast, talk to the owner about how his pizza store works, read too much” curious.
You understand that there will be more fires than we can get to, so what matters is choosing to fight the one that will kill us.
You've gotten on calls with users, heard them describe their problems, and changed what you were building because of it. If you haven’t done this, you’ve wanted to and been frustrated that you couldn’t.
You want to work closely with high‑integrity, growth‑oriented, “can’t wait to reminisce with them at dinner 20 years from now” people.
You're excited to invest in your teammates' growth as they invest in yours.
You’ve been at an early stage startup ( This Job Is NOT For You If
You want the chill life of a large, stable tech company.
You want a 9/9/6 grind. We work hard (expect ~45‑50 hours in a typical week) but we don’t glorify grinding yourself into the ground. We need you sharp and sustainable, not burned out.
You only want to work on projects that interest you. There will be excellent work to do. There will be shit to shovel. We all do both.
You think you’ve already learned everything you can.
To Excel Here, You’ll Need To
Never shy away from a problem just because you haven’t done it before. You’ve said ‘I’ve never done this before but give me a few days’ and then actually delivered.
Be comfortable across the full stack and backend/data work, and excel in at least one.
Be comfortable going really fast when it’s needed, but deliver bomb‑proof systems when they’re needed too.
Communicate exceptionally well. You could have been a Product Manager, but you like building too much.
Company Values
Build Money Printing Machines: Our success is measured by how much money we help our customers make. We focus on improving the system that is our business and pushing it toward perfection.
Kill your Ego: Show up every day, put your ego aside, and figure out how to be better. Give and receive tough feedback openly.
Help Each Other Flourish: Care deeply about the whole person. Help each other excel.
It’s Art: We’re in this because we love it. We want to make ourselves and the business better because it’s fun.
Too High Integrity: Do the right thing, even when it costs us money.
What We Offer
Fully remote, US‑based (EST preferred, PST welcome), flexible hours
Extremely generous equity (we want you to make off like a bandit if we succeed)
Competitive cash comp: $150K–$210K
Top‑tier health insurance, dental, optional life insurance, optional therapy through Talkspace (US employees)
