Job Description

Join a founding team building an auditable AI decision platform. You will design the product infrastructure that makes complex reasoning, evidence, and uncertainty visible to customers.

Why this role is remarkable

• Shape the core architecture and product culture of a venture‑backed startup at the founding stage.
• Solve unique technical challenges in making non‑deterministic AI outputs auditable, traceable, and trustworthy for high‑stakes business decisions.
• Direct ownership over the platform layer that bridges cutting‑edge AI research with reliable, user‑centric software products.

What You Will Do

• Build the core product platform including customer‑facing interfaces, backend APIs, and reusable data workflow systems.
• Design and implement infrastructure for storing, querying, and auditing AI‑generated insights, source evidence, and model traces.
• Collaborate with founders to transform prototype AI workflows into robust, repeatable software primitives that ensure customer trust.

The ideal candidate

• 5+ years of software engineering experience with strong proficiency in Python (FastAPI) and React/TypeScript (Next.js).
• Proven track record of building data‑intensive B2B SaaS platforms or complex workflow tools from the ground up.
• Exceptional product judgment with a focus on creating clear, reliable, and observable systems in ambiguous environments.
