Job description

The company is building an AI workforce platform focused on enterprise automation, initially targeting industries such as roofing and solar companies that have large operational workflows and need significant automation.

The mission is to provide companies with AI agents that can take over business processes end-to-end rather than simply assist employees.

About You

• Full-stack range. You're a strong generalist engineer - comfortable across backend services, data pipelines, and enough frontend to ship a usable interface. TypeScript/Python or similar. You'd rather own a whole deliverable than a layer of one.
• Customer instincts. You communicate clearly with researchers and technical customers, push back when they're asking for the wrong thing, and know the difference between what someone requests and what they need. The work moves between deep async stretches and high-bandwidth sessions with customers, in person when it counts.
• Experience. No hard rule. Ideally at least 3 years shipping production software, but less works if the above sounds like you.
