About The Company

We represent a company building an AI platform that serves as a Watchtower for global supply chains. They are beginning with one of the most critical and complex networks in the world: the global food supply chain that moves food from farm to table. 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, they are now expanding its founding team. They are looking for elite, ambitious builders to help scale from their strong foothold in food distribution to broader enterprise deployments across the full supply chain landscape, including freight, manufacturing, and distribution.

They are helping its customers modernize operations and move beyond outdated ERP systems into the era of AI. Their intelligent agents do more than sit on top of legacy platforms like SAP or NetSuite—they actively help run the business. What Salesforce did for CRM, this team is doing for the entire supply chain stack. The global food supply chain alone represents a $10 trillion opportunity, and for them, that is only the beginning.

About The Role

We are looking for a Founding Full Stack Engineer to help build the next generation of AI-driven systems for global supply chains, starting with the food industry. You will work side by side with the founders to architect, develop, and deploy intelligent agents that automate real-world business processes end to end.

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. You will be working in person with the founders, iterating rapidly, and shipping code that directly impacts customers’ operations.

This is not a typical startup job. You will be part of a small team that lives and breathes its mission. You will work hard, push boundaries, and be surrounded by people who do the same. The expectation is full commitment, high accountability, and no tolerance for mediocrity. The opportunity is to grow into a key builder of a product that could redefine an entire industry.

Responsibilities

• Build and scale agentic systems that automate complex workflows across ERP and supply chain environments
• Fine-tune small language models for specific use cases such as order management, credit control, and procurement
• Develop and maintain full stack applications using modern frameworks like Next.js and Python
• Collaborate directly with founders to translate customer pain points into technical solutions
• Join onsite onboarding sessions with clients to understand real-world processes and refine product performance
• Drive projects from concept to deployment with full ownership over architecture, implementation, and optimization

Requirements

• 2 to 5 years of experience in high-growth environments (Seed to Series B or equivalent)
• Mastery of Python and core data science libraries
• Strong experience with Next.js and AWS
• Understanding of LLM orchestration, agent frameworks, and workflow automation
• Ability to move quickly, learn continuously, and operate across the stack
• Experience in AI model development or small model fine-tuning is a strong plus
• Comfort working closely with non-technical users and turning real-world problems into elegant technical solutions

The Type Of Person Who Will Succeed Here

• Builder mentality with a founder-like sense of ownership
• High personal standards and a relentless drive to improve
• Competitive nature and bias toward action
• Exceptional curiosity about how systems, people, and industries work
• Strong emotional intelligence and humility
• Proven ability to thrive in intense, hands‑on, startup environments
• Genuine motivation to make an impact beyond code
