Founding Product Engineer
Turn the AI runtime into product. Design and ship full vertical experiences — Search, Shop, Finance, Health, Legal — end to end on the shared Next.js + FastAPI stack.
What you'll do
- Own a vertical product from schema to API to UI to launch
- Design pure-white, pixel-perfect interfaces that ship the same day
- Wire AI engines into product through the engine-registry pattern
- Talk to users every week and move the metric you're hired to move
- Set the product-engineering bar for the next ten people we hire
What you bring
- 5+ years shipping consumer or prosumer software end-to-end
- Excellent TypeScript / React / Next.js plus enough backend to ship without help
- Strong design sense — you see the 1px offsets and the unclear copy
- History of owning a product surface and the metric attached to it
Nice to have
- Has launched a 0→1 product to public users
- Comfort with Tailwind, design systems, and shipping copy yourself
- Background working closely with founders or as a founder
Compensation
Founding-level equity plus competitive cash. Calibrated on first call.
