About this role

Join a seed-stage AI pricing platform as a Founding Product Engineer in San Francisco. You'll own full product modules end-to-end, architecting systems for agentic AI workflows while ensuring financial correctness in a B2B SaaS context. This is a hands-on role combining backend infrastructure, full-stack development, and direct customer engagement.

What you'll do

  • Own entire product modules end-to-end: scoping, API design, UI implementation, shipping, and iteration without PM support
  • Design and evolve architecture for agentic AI systems across Slack bots, terminal UIs, web interfaces, and vendor integrations
  • Ensure features are drivable by LLM agents via MCP/FastMCP servers and conversational interfaces
  • Move pricing and business logic to robust backend services using typed Pydantic models for SKU, Proposition, Persona, and Pricing entities
  • Lead architectural reviews and establish testing, observability, deployment, and performance monitoring practices for AI-driven features
  • Gather customer requirements directly and translate them into shipped product specifications with high standards for financial correctness

What they're looking for

  • FastAPI and Python backend development
  • MongoDB or comparable database systems
  • React and TypeScript frontend development
  • REST/GraphQL API design and versioning
  • LLM agent integration and MCP server implementation
  • B2B SaaS monetization concepts (pricing, packaging, CPQ, quoting)
  • Full-stack product ownership and customer discovery
  • Financial logic implementation and correctness verification

Benefits

  • Salary: $200,000–$250,000 USD annually, based on experience
  • Early-stage equity as a founding team member
  • Direct influence on product direction and engineering culture
  • On-site collaboration in San Francisco with a small, fast-moving team
  • High ownership of significant product surface area from day one
  • Opportunity to shape AI-native SDLC practices
