We think applying to jobs is broken. So we automated it. Finding the right role in AI shouldn't mean copy-pasting the same resume into a hundred forms at midnight. But that's what job hunting still looks like for most people — slow, manual, and demoralizing, right when it matters most. DevFound is an AI-first job platform built for AI/ML talent and the teams hiring them. Instead of another job board, we built an AI agent that works for you: it finds roles that actually match, tailors your resume to each one, and applies on your behalf — across real hiring systems, while you get on with your life. Around that agent we've built a full AI Copilot for the job search: a resume builder and scanner, cover-letter generation, voice-based mock interviews, and a resume translator. And because the AI world moves fast, we curate the rest of the ecosystem in one place — the companies, jobs, podcasts, events, and learning paths worth your attention. Our bar is simple: high signal, no noise. We'd rather show you one role you're right for than a thousand you'll ignore. Everything we ship is meant to save you time and give you an edge, not add to the pile. We're early, and we're building fast. If you're looking for your next role in AI — or building the team that needs great people — DevFound is for you.
