Founding Engineer

We’re building an AI workforce that lets small businesses run and grow themselves. Working alongside technical founder Kai Feller (previous company was UK’s largest bootstrapped exit of $300m), we're assembling an elite founding team that moves fast and gets things done.

As a Founding Engineer, you’ll ship step-changing features fast, shaping architecture, and integrating cutting-edge AI directly into the product. You’ll design & build the scalable backend systems and intelligence layers that enables the autonomous running of thousands of businesses. This is an engineering role at its best - building what’s never existed before hands-on within a small & exceptionally talented group, that operates with a sense of urgency and passion for building innovative products.

What you’ll do

  • Build new step-changing product features end-to-end, shipping fast and often.
  • Integrate cutting-edge AI directly into the product - voice, reasoning, context management, data extraction - turning static workflows into living intelligence.
  • Design & build APIs that scale internally & externally to connect products, integrations, and intelligence systems together.
  • Architect robust data flows & pipelines that fuel agent context & decision making.
  • Develop backend infrastructure and intelligent automation for knowledge crawling, extraction and enrichment.
  • Help shape and contribute towards our DevOps practices (CI/CD, cloud infrastructure, observability).

Requirements

  • Deep full-stack Javascript expertise (ideally React & Node) or deep backend expertise with Python.
  • Previous full ownership of a successful high volume system.
  • Evidence of excellence at everything you do.
  • Exceptional problem-solving skills and meticulous attention to detail.
  • Naturally articulate and able to communicate complex concepts clearly.
  • Genuine care for customers, their experience and desire to wow them.

Why join

  • Share options - Everyone gets equity. But unlike most, our share options translate into real value as we’ve paid them out before.
  • High pay & stability - We pay top salaries and offer tangible equity. You don’t have to trade security for upside.
  • Tools for the job - Whatever helps you be more productive, you get it. The best hardware, software, and setup. We love technology.
  • Proven winning team - We’ve built, scaled, and sold businesses before (UK’s largest bootstrapped exit of $300m). Now we’re hands-on building again.
  • Warchest available - We have our own significant funds available if required. No external shareholders, no external distractions.
