About the Company

We repressent a company building an AI platform that serves as a Watchtower for global supply chains.

In just a short period, they have gone from concept to product, onboarded early customers, and are already automating more than $10 million in monthly orders with no human involvement. Their technology is helping businesses save millions in payroll while increasing net profits by up to 20 percent within weeks of going live.

After securing $3.8 million in funding from leading investors, we are expanding its founding team.

As one of the first four people on the team, you will be deeply involved in shaping both the product and the culture. This is a role for someone who thrives in fast‑paced, high‑intensity environments, takes ownership of everything they build, and sees engineering as a craft.
