Founding Engineer: Build Deterministic Hiring Tech

Goodfit; Minnesota; On-site; USD 140,000 - 190,000; Full time

Job summary

InCommon is seeking a senior engineer to own the determinism challenge end-to-end. You will sit with recruiters, diagnose what’s broken, and ship a solid solution within days.

You’ll lead the product from architecture to deployment to iteration, owning recruiting workflows, the agent systems powering them, and the underlying infrastructure. You’ll take ownership when something breaks in production and when something ships beautifully.

Qualifications

• 5+ years engineering experience with strong foundations — systems thinking, clean abstractions, and the instinct to reach for the right tool, not just the newest one
• Shipped and owned full-stack applications in production, end to end — not just features, but the whole thing
• Comfortable with AI and agent systems, and eager to go deeper — you don't need to have done it all, but you need to learn fast and build honestly
• Can sit with recruiters, understand their actual problems, and translate that into something real — they're your closest collaborators
• Takes ownership seriously: you follow things through, you don't wait to be asked, and you care about outcomes over output
• The determinism question makes you want to find out, not roll your eyes

Responsibilities

• Own architecture to deployment to iteration for recruiting workflows
• Lead the product from architecture to deployment to iteration — owning the agent systems and infrastructure
• Own production reliability and ship quality software with strong ownership
• Collaborate with recruiters to translate problems into concrete, measurable solutions
