About the role
You will own the end-to-end engineering execution and define the technical direction of the company. This involves building AI-powered testing agents and managing the full stack from prototype to production.
What they look for
Requirements
The ideal candidate has a strong background in full-stack development and hands-on experience with AI/LLM technologies. You must demonstrate a high level of ownership and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, startup environment.
Full description
What You’ll Do
- You will own engineering execution end-to-end.
- You will take ideas from zero to production.
- You will help define the technical DNA of the company. Ship fast, learn faster : We deploy daily, not monthly
- Talk to users, shape the roadmap : Sit in the trenches with founders on calls that define what we build
- Train AI agents: Design LLM-powered testers that explore, learn, and adapt in real time
- Own the stack : Python, TypeScript, cloud infra, from commit to production
- Turn prototypes into production : Run real experiments on models, embeddings, and retrieval pipelines
This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who thrives without guardrails.
What We’re Looking For
- Relentless drive: You execute fast, adapt faster
- Startup scar tissue : You’ve shipped product with no safety net
- Fluency with AI/LLMs : LangChain, vector stores, prompt engineering
- Full-stack firepower : Frontend, backend, infra, no silos
- Product obsession : You care more about outcomes than outputs
- Experimental instinct: You build → test → learn → repeat
Ideal Background
There’s no perfect pedigree. We hire for mindset, not credentials. That said, you might have:
- Shipped AI features in prod
- Built something from 0 to 1
- Thrived in chaos with high ownership
Why This Matters
Software is accelerating. QA hasn’t kept up. Autonomous testing is inevitable, and we’re building it.
Five years from now, every high-velocity team will rely on AI agents like ours to ship faster, safer, and smarter.
Join now, and help make that future real, before someone else does.
