About the job
Imagine websites autonomously optimizing themselves to improve performance. You’d be building a system that teaches websites to evolve overtime to increase conversions, sales, and revenue. The Generative-AI platform you’d be building would be automatically performing the work it used to take dozens of engineers, designers, and data scientists to run. We’re starting with eCommerce (a gigantic market) and expanding from there.
It’s a huge vision and this is why we’re looking for the world’s best founding team to make it a reality. We are well funded, at a very early stage, so this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to join as a founding engineer and set the technical direction for the company.

What you’ll achieve
As a founding engineer, your immediate focus will be to design, develop and test highly scalable and reliable systems that power our platform’s features and functionalities.

We are solving a problem that wasn’t solved before, this work is going to combine A LOT of research alongside the development of the system. If all goes well – you’ll also shape the way websites and digital products are built in the years to come 🙂

What we believe in

- Constantly living on the edge of “Can we even pull this off?”
Who we’re looking for
- A software craftsman – you know your sh*t around code, an overall rounded professional
- 5+ years of full-stack experience is the guideline (not a deal breaker)
- Experience leading dev teams or big projects
- A degree or above in computer science, electrical engineering, math, or equivalent experience
