Software Engineer; SF​/NY

The Role

This role is designed for former engineering leaders (IC or EM) or founders who are comfortable owning end‑to‑end technical outcomes but specifically want to continue being impactful as individual contributors and spend more time in the code. You will work on a small, high‑caliber team (2–5 engineers and a PM) building AI products for our clients. You will set technical direction, write code, and be the person the team looks to when something is hard.

You will spend roughly 75% of your time in code and 25% working directly with clients—often their CTOs—understanding problems, walking through tradeoffs, and ensuring what we’re building meets their needs.

• 8+ years of engineering experience, with deep care for the craft. You have shipped multiple complete products end‑to‑end and write elegant, production‑ready code across multiple disciplines.
• Specific interest in applying software engineering fundamentals to AI systems. You care about balancing frontier model capabilities with good system design.
• Comfort talking with senior technical stakeholders. You navigate conversations skillfully and care about people using what you build.
• High ownership mindset. You jump in without instruction, embrace a “no job too big, no job too small” mindset, and want to shape strategy and culture.
• Low ego, high integrity. You help others and ask for help. You hold a high bar for honesty—with yourself and your team.
