About Hero

Hero is building the fastest AI-native recruiting platform for founders. Our vision is to eliminate the friction of hiring through automation and intelligent workflows — no job boards, no application pile ups, and no recruiters. We make hiring feel like magic for small teams.

The product is being validated by early adopters. We’re looking for a world-class Technical Co-Founder to build on this momentum, lead product development, and ship a category-defining platform.

The Role: Technical Founder

You are the builder. Your mission is velocity.

You’ll own all things product and engineering — from AI architecture to product velocity to tech-enabled growth loops.

You’ll be responsible for:

• Translating validated problems into fast, functional product solutions
• Building and maintaining a scalable, modular codebase
• Leveraging LLMs and automation to create a recruiting experience 10x better than legacy tools
• Owning technical hiring and code quality from Day 1
• Managing rapid iteration cycles without over-engineering
• Partnering closely with the Co-founder to prioritize roadmap and user insights
• Keeping Hero AI-native, fast, and execution-led

Ideal Candidate Profile

• Deep experience in AI, LLMs, low-code, and modern SaaS stacks
• Comfortable solo-building and scaling early product with minimal support
• Pragmatic, scrappy, and speed-obsessed
• Obsessive about clean UX, performance, and user value
• Past founder, founding engineer, or lead builder in startup environment
• Bonus: built products in recruiting, marketplaces, or HR tech

Why Join Hero

• Own the product vision from inception
• Move fast with a commercial founder who knows how to sell
• Skip the fundraising — build with focus and clarity
• Backed by Martell Ventures with support, advisory, and GTM distribution
• If it works, we scale it hard — and you lead the tech team
