This is a product with the potential to take off in the coming years. Backed by Cherry Ventures, they’re looking for a founding engineer to take them to the next level.

What to expect:

As a Founding Backend Engineer, you’ll be an essential driver in their founding team. Your role will focus on two crucial areas of their tech stack.

The first area is the API powering their web app. They favor RPC interfaces and handle most data transformations on the backend. They also prefer writing SQL directly rather than using ORMs. A solid understanding of relational databases is highly valuable in this role.

The second area involves RAG pipelines. While prior ML/AI experience is appreciated, it’s not required. Your task will be to ensure that they build robust, safe, and scalable pipelines.

You should also enjoy running experiments, defining evaluation criteria, and occasionally diving deep into data analysis.

As a Founding Engineer, you’ll help shape their app and tech team from the ground up. You will be involved in every decision, & both technical and people leadership opportunities will be built into the role from day one!

  • Equity in the business
