About Us

We're a Series A startup backed by a tier-1 VC and technology partners, with an ex-unicorn founder. Early team, moving fast.

 

The Role

We're looking for a senior full stack engineer to help build the software foundation for a new category of consumer technology.

What You'll Do

  • Design, build, and ship customer-facing products across web, mobile, and device experiences.

  • Develop scalable backend services, APIs, and infrastructure that power our platform.

  • Work across the entire product lifecycle, from early prototypes to production systems.

  • Partner closely with product, design, AI, and hardware teams to bring new experiences to life.

  • Build integrations between software, AI systems, and connected devices.

  • Improve reliability, performance, security, and developer experience across the stack.

  • Make thoughtful technical decisions while balancing speed, quality, and long-term maintainability.

  • Help define engineering culture, standards, and best practices as the team grows.

  • Own projects end-to-end and ship quickly with a high degree of autonomy.

 

You

  • 4+ years of experience building and shipping production software.

  • Strong full stack engineering skills with experience across frontend and backend development.

  • Experience building products from 0→1 or working in fast-paced startup environments.

  • Strong product instincts and a desire to build things people actually use.

  • Able to move quickly without sacrificing quality.

  • Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.High ownership, low ego, and strong collaboration skills.

Nice to Have

  • Experience building consumer products at scale.

  • Experience with AI-powered products, LLMs, agents, or conversational interfaces.

  • Experience with real-time systems, IoT, connected devices, or smart home products.

  • Experience with React, TypeScript, Python, mobile development, or cloud infrastructure.

  • Prior startup or founding engineer experience.

  • Strong interest in product design and user experience.

Why Join

  • Help define an entirely new category of consumer technology.

  • Work directly with experienced founders and an exceptional early team.

  • Own meaningful parts of the product from day one.

  • Build products that blend hardware, software, AI, and design.
