We’re hiring the first engineer for our new product. You will own this from start to initial launch.

Building the best APIs for realtime people and company data took us from 0 to $4M ARR in first 9 months while catering to just <1% of our customers. Now we want to democratize its access to everyone else with our new product.

Who you are

  • 5+ years of experience in shipping production software
  • Prior experience of working with sales/gtm teams in the past would be extremely beneficial
  • A true grinder - we work very hard
  • Founder mentality - someone who wants to be a founder in future OR was a founder earlier and hates eating glass every day.

This is a role with founder-level excitement of uncovering the unknowns minus the risks

What you’ll be doing

  • Lead the 0→1 build of a new product on top of our APIs. Including building core algorithms and architecture for creating deterministic AI agents on the fly from natural language
  • Own product strategy and execution end-to-end: user discovery, scoping, rapid prototyping, shipping, iteration, and metrics.
  • Collaborate with Sales/CS to define high-leverage workflows
  • Build production-quality UX (fast, simple, correct), with pragmatic choices over perfect abstractions.
  • Partner with the Head of Engineering on architecture, reliability, and data/privacy guardrails.
