Full-Stack Software Engineer

We’re hiring full-stack engineers to expand two product lines (vendor risk management and marketing compliance, including a dedicated ML track). You’ll ship across the stack, work directly with customers weekly, drive your own roadmap, and operate at near-founder level alongside the founding team - with a path to leading expansion into new product areas.

What you’ll be doing

• Build and ship full-stack features across Python, FastAPI, React, and Next.js
• Work directly with customers weekly, translating feedback into improvements that work for all clients
• Drive roadmap items based on your own customer interactions and product vision
• Build infrastructure and systems that are extensible and scalable, not just fast
• Contribute to architectural and technical decisions alongside the founding team
• Lead expansion into new product areas as the company grows
