What we're building
Enterprise marketing still runs through agencies because launching one campaign means coordinating specialists across Marketo, HubSpot, Meta, LinkedIn, CMSs, and a dozen other systems. It takes weeks.
CharacterQuilt uses computer-use agents to do that work inside the software companies already use. A campaign that took three months can now ship in two days. We raised $13M and were one of the fastest-growing companies in YC's P26 batch.
The role
You'll own the runtime behind every agent run: workers, sandboxes, files, skills, authenticated browsers, durable state, retries, recovery, and the API and CLI around the system.
You'll work directly with me and a very small engineering team. Our agents touch customer software and real budgets, so "probably worked" is not good enough.
What you'll do
Provision and operate workers and sandboxes.
Make file, skill, and workspace hydration fast and correct.
Build reliable browser authentication and session isolation.
Design retries, replay, cancellation, recovery, and observability.
Ship the API, CLI, and MCP surfaces customers and our own agents use.
You might be a fit if
You're a strong full-stack engineer who likes databases, distributed systems, filesystems, and browsers.
You move quickly but care deeply about correctness.
You want broad ownership at an early-stage company.
