Founding Full-Stack Engineer

the company | Founding Full‑Stack Engineer | San Francisco | Full‑time | $200K–$300K + founding equity | the company.ai

the company is the AI agent platform that runs restaurant back‑office operations. Not another dashboard — agents that take the work off the operator's plate and act: build the schedule and push it to action, place the order with distributors, audit the invoice for overcharges, draft the review reply. The operator approves what matters; the rest gets done.

The unfair part: the founder owns and runs a 40‑location restaurant company with over 750 employees — so the company's first customer is a real, operating restaurant group with real data and real stakes from day one. Deep domain expertise is built in, and your work runs in real restaurants immediately, not after a six‑month hunt for a design partner. Well‑funded.

A working prototype is already built. Now I'm hiring a founding full‑stack engineer to take it from prototype to production: own the architecture, the agent runtime, the backend, and the integrations the agents act through (Toast, Paycom, Sysco, and more), set the technical bar, and grow the team behind you.

You'd work directly with me — I own product, customers, and the domain; you own the AI and the build. We'd be hiring additional engineers and account managers within the first year.

You're a fit if you:

• have shipped agentic systems to production — plan‑and‑act, not chatbots or wrappers
• are a strong full‑stack builder (Python and/or Node, Postgres, real infra)
• use the latest AI tooling (Claude Code / Cursor) as your default

want to own a whole product as the first engineer, and eventually lead

Stack:
React/Type Script, Python/Node, Postgres, the Anthropic API, integrations across the restaurant stack.
