About this role

Founding full-stack engineer role at a seed-stage AI startup building autonomous product demo agents for B2B sales teams.

What you'll do

  • Design and implement LLM orchestration, conversation flows, and tool-use logic for agents that understand unfamiliar products and explain them to prospects
  • Build embeddable, responsive generative UI components that adapt in real-time based on user interaction and product context
  • Develop customer-facing platform features for agent configuration, conversation management, transcript review, and performance analytics
  • Own evaluation and quality assurance pipelines including regression detection, rollback mechanisms, and automated self-improvement loops
  • Architect zero-cold-start infrastructure ensuring agents respond instantly when prospects initiate demos
  • Design agent versioning and preview systems enabling safe, staged deployment of changes

What they're looking for

  • React (frontend development)
  • Python (backend development)
  • LLM agent orchestration and frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex)
  • RAG pipelines and retrieval-augmented generation
  • Evaluation framework design and regression testing
  • Full-stack product development and shipping
  • UX/UI sensibility and product thinking
  • Infrastructure and reliability engineering

Benefits

  • Founding engineer equity package commensurate with role and stage
  • Competitive salary ($180,000–$230,000 annually)
  • Opportunity to set technical culture and architecture at a fast-growing startup
  • Direct collaboration with CTO on novel, unsolved AI and product challenges
  • On-site team culture in San Francisco
