About the Role
Join an early-stage, Y Combinator-backed AI marketing automation startup as a Founding Engineer (Full-Stack). You'll be one of the first engineers on the team, taking full ownership of features from concept through deployment — working directly with founders and customers to shape the product and infrastructure from the ground up.
What You'll Do
- Own end-to-end feature development across the full stack: frontend (Vue.js/Nuxt), backend (Node.js/TypeScript), and AI agent integrations (LangGraph)
- Architect and maintain robust PostgreSQL database schemas using Supabase, ensuring data integrity and performance
- Manage deployments, background jobs, and infrastructure using Render and Inngest; maintain dedicated deployments on Microsoft Azure
- Apply user-centric design thinking across the full product lifecycle
- Collaborate closely with the operations team and customers (via Slack and Notion) to align technical solutions with real user needs
- Contribute to tooling and internal workflows using Linear, GitHub, Slack, and Notion
What We're Looking For
Required
- 2+ years of professional software engineering experience delivering full-stack web applications
- Hands-on experience with TypeScript and Node.js backend development
- Strong proficiency with PostgreSQL and relational database design
- Frontend experience with Vue.js + Nuxt, or React/Next.js
- Experience owning features end-to-end — from concept through deployment to maintenance
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
- Willing and able to relocate to San Francisco and work on-site
Nice to Have
- Experience deploying and managing applications with Render and Inngest; familiarity with Microsoft Azure
- Background or exposure to marketing technology or AdTech
- Experience integrating with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.) or building AI/ML-powered features
- Familiarity with serverless workflows or event-driven architecture
Compensation & Benefits
