Job description
This is a founding-team engineering opportunity at an early-stage agentic integration platform built for the real economy. Specialized AI agents gather requirements in plain English, generate integration code, test it, deploy it, and keep it running in production - autonomously. As one of the first engineers, you’ll own core systems end-to-end alongside the founders and set the engineering foundation that every future hire builds upon.
This is not a chatbot or a thin LLM wrapper. The agents do actual work with actual consequences in production: multi-agent orchestration, a durable execution runtime (think mini-Vercel for integrations), self-healing systems, and a knowledge base that gets smarter with every integration shipped., * Own core systems end-to-end - agent platform, cloud infrastructure, and the integrations runtime, from conception through production.
- Set the engineering patterns - define the architecture, standards, and best practices that every future engineer inherits.
- Ship constantly - work directly alongside the founders, deploying to production frequently and iterating fast.
- Shape the entire system - your decisions in year one will define how the platform scales technically and organizationally.
Requirements
Required:
- Strong proficiency in TypeScript, React, Bun, Effect-TS, PostgreSQL, Kubernetes, and AWS
- Proven track record shipping and owning end-to-end production systems
- Experience designing engineering patterns and best practices at an organizational level
- Solid background in infrastructure, deployment, and runtime systems - including monitoring, reliability, and self-healing capabilities
- Comfort working directly with founders in a fast-paced, early-stage environment
- Ability to work on-site in San Francisco
Nice to Have:
- Background in agent orchestration or multi-agent system design
- Experience with durable execution frameworks or workflow engines
- Prior experience as an early or founding engineer at a startup
