Founding Software Engineer

About the Role

This is a founding engineering role at an early-stage enterprise AI company building software that enforces supplier contract terms across complex supply chains, helping large organizations recover millions in spend leakage. You will join a small founding team, work directly with F500 customers, and have real influence over the product and technical direction from day one.

What You'll Do

• Build and ship full-stack product features end-to-end as a core member of the founding engineering team.

• Solve hard data problems at scale, including continuously verifying what enterprises have negotiated versus what they have paid across massive volumes of messy, fragmented data.

• Make strategic product and technical decisions that shape the company's direction from the ground up.

• Work directly with enterprise customers in sectors such as CPG, retail, and healthcare to understand their problems and deliver solutions.

• Contribute to AI and LLM systems that drive significant cost savings for large organizations.

What We're Looking For

• 0 to 8 years of full-stack application development experience shipping real products end to end.

• Proven track record at a well-regarded tech company or VC-backed startup, with at least 12 months of full-time product engineering experience.

• Comfort working across the stack using technologies such as Python, TypeScript, and React.

• Experience with modern LLM systems, evaluation frameworks, or AI/ML pipelines is a strong plus.

• Prior founding engineer or startup experience is a plus, but not required.

• Entrepreneurial mindset with an interest in building foundational systems in a fast-moving, early-stage environment.

Compensation & Benefits

• Salary: $200,000 to $225,000 USD annually.

• Equity: Founding team equity included.

• Visa sponsorship: Available.
