Full-Stack Software Engineer

This isn't a typical junior developer role. As our first engineering hire, you'll have an outsized impact on product direction, architecture decisions, and engineering culture from day one. You'll work directly with the Director of Technology across the full stack-building features end-to-end, shipping to production, and iterating with real dealership users. We're looking for someone who is hungry to learn, comfortable with ambiguity, and excited about working at the intersection of AI and software engineering., * Build and ship features across our full stack: React frontends, C#/.NET and Python backends, and cloud infrastructure on AWS

• Work with MongoDB and PostgreSQL to design and optimize data models, queries, and pipelines
• Integrate with third-party automotive APIs and dealership management systems
• Leverage agentic AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, etc.) as a core part of your daily workflow to dramatically accelerate development velocity
• Collaborate directly with the Director of Technology on architecture decisions and technical strategy
• Help build the engineering practices and culture of a growing startup from the ground floor, * Ground-Floor Opportunity - You'll be the first engineer on the team with a direct line to the Director of Technology and a real voice in how the product and company evolve
• AI-Native Development - We don't just build AI products; we use AI tools to build them. If you want to push the boundaries of what's possible with agentic coding, this is the place
• Real Users, Real Impact - Our platform is heading into pilot deployment with dealerships. You'll see your work in the hands of real users, not buried in a backlog
• Growth Trajectory - As the company scales, so will your role. Early hires at startups have a unique opportunity to grow into senior technical leadership

• Experience with at least one compiled server-side language (C#, Java, or similar)
• Familiarity with both SQL (PostgreSQL, SQL Server) and NoSQL (MongoDB) databases
• A demonstrated habit of using AI-assisted and agentic coding tools in your development workflow-we want to see that you're already leaning into this, not just curious about it
