I’m looking for a **Technical Co-Founder / Founding CTO** to build Livinit with me

Furniture shopping still forces people to guess: Will it fit? Will the fabric work? What will the full room cost? Will everything look right together?

Livinit turns a real room into a to-scale, editable buying experience where people can compare real products, layouts, materials, and budgets before they commit.

The product is live, with 20,000+ real products and 30,000+ room layouts in the public experience. Now I’m looking for a deeply technical, product-minded founder to own the architecture, strengthen our AI and spatial systems, ship with customers, and build the engineering team with me.

What you will own

  • Set the technical vision, architecture, and execution roadmap with the founder.

  • Build and improve the core pipeline from room input to spatial understanding, editable 3D environments, product placement, configuration, and purchase decisions.

  • Raise the bar for scale accuracy, visual quality, speed, reliability, and user trust.

  • Build systems that connect product catalogs, dimensions, pricing, materials, fabrics, finishes, and configurations to real rooms.

  • Ship customer-facing product improvements quickly while making sound long-term architectural choices.

  • Work directly with shoppers, retailers, manufacturers, and pilot partners to turn real workflow pain into product.

  • Establish strong engineering practices across data quality, evaluation, observability, privacy, and security.

  • Recruit and lead the early engineering team as the company grows.

  • Participate fully in company building: strategy, hiring, fundraising, partnerships, and the hard decisions that come with creating something from zero.

You may be a strong fit if you

  • Have built and shipped a meaningful product from zero to one.

  • Are an excellent product-minded engineer who can move between architecture, code, users, and business priorities.

  • Have deep strength in at least two of these areas: full-stack product engineering, applied AI/ML, computer vision, 3D graphics or spatial computing, data infrastructure, or cloud systems.

  • Know how to prototype quickly without creating a product that collapses as soon as real customers arrive.

  • Care about the messy details of physical-world software: dimensions, geometry, materials, product variants, incomplete catalog data, and visual accuracy.

  • Can make progress with ambiguity, limited resources, and imperfect information.

  • Communicate directly, disagree thoughtfully, and take responsibility when something breaks.

  • Want the ownership, pressure, and long-term commitment of being a co-founder.

This is a full-time co-founder role with meaningful founder equity.
