Founding Engineer
What we're looking for
- Founding engineer with founder caliber skills
- Technical co-founder perspective
- Forward deployment model experience preferred
- Strong hands-on mentality
- Product engineer mindset
Build AI agents from day zero at an early, VC-backed startup - with a real path to CTO.
About the Company
We're an early-stage, VC-backed startup building AI agents for the European residential real estate market - a massive, underserved category. Our founders have done this before, having scaled a similar playbook to a $2.2B valuation. You'll build from zero rather than optimize legacy systems, and help define what this category even is.
About the Role
As our Founding Engineer, you'll own product and technology end-to-end and shape the architecture from day 0. This is a real shot at a CTO / co-founder path, with direct founder access and no layers in between. If you want comfort, this isn't the role; if you want to build something real from day zero, let's talk.
What You'll Do
Own product and technology end-to-end
Build AI agents using LLMs, workflows, and automations
Integrate with messy, real-world systems - CRMs, APIs, and legacy stacks
Ship fast, talk to users, and iterate
Shape the architecture from day 0
Help define a brand-new category
What You'll Bring
3-6 years of engineering experience
Backend-first, with the ability to go full-stack when needed
A strong track record of shipping - a lot
Comfort with ambiguity and minimal hand-holding
Daily use of AI tools (you're already 10x faster because of it)
A startup mindset where ownership beats comfort
Nice to Have
A technical co-founder perspective and founder-caliber drive
Experience with a forward-deployment model
A product-engineer mindset
What's on Offer
Meaningful equity (~1.5%)
A real path to CTO / co-founder
Direct access to founders, with no hierarchy
The chance to build from zero in a massive, underserved market
