Candidate Profile We are looking for an engineer who wants to help build something meaningful, rather than simply complete tickets. You should be curious about AI, commercially minded and comfortable working closely with a founder. You should enjoy solving problems, challenging assumptions constructively and making pragmatic technical decisions. You do not need to have worked in a large technology company. Demonstrable engineering ability, sound judgement, ownership and the capacity to deliver are more important than an impressive job title. Experience with AI and creator technology is advantageous, but a strong software engineering foundation and the ability to learn quickly are essential. 9. Location & Working Arrangements * Remote-first position based in New York City, USA. * Work primarily from your NYC home office or another suitable remote workspace. * Collaborate with an internationally minded founding team and external technology partners. * Maintain regular communication with the Founder & CEO and AI Engineer. * Participate in agreed planning meetings, progress reviews and product demonstrations. * Work collaboratively across time zones where required. Any required travel, working-hour expectations and cross-border arrangements will be agreed in advance. 10. Compensation & Engagement Compensation will be determined according to experience, technical capability, responsibilities and the company's recruitment budget. The final offer will specify the salary or contractual rate, employment status, benefits and any applicable incentive arrangements. Equity or other long-term incentives may be considered where appropriate, subject to agreement and formal documentation. No equity award is implied by this specification. The role's start date and engagement terms will be confirmed following recruitment and funding approval. 11. Why Join CLM AI? * Build from the ground up: Help shape an emerging AI-powered media and technology platform. * Work directly with the founder: Contribute to product strategy and meaningful technical decisions. * Explore AI in practice: Work across AI integrations, digital personalities and interactive creator experiences. * Shape the engineering culture: Establish the standards and systems that support future growth. * Think globally: Contribute to a venture with ambitions across the US and international markets. * Make an early impact: Help define the product and technology as CLM AI progresses towards launch.
