About the company

Our company is building the missing infrastructure for how organisations understand themselves and how they change. The core platform is already built and operating and is now moving into pilot deployments with early customers.

Work closely with the founder on technical decisions and architecture to lay the foundations for future technical hires and team growth.

About the team

About the job

We're looking for a Founding Engineer to take ownership of the technical side of the product and help shape its direction as it moves into pilots and early growth.

This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who wants to be close to the problem, close to the product, and close to the decisions. You'll help evolve the existing system into a scalable, production-ready platform as it moves through early pilots and into larger implementations.

What you'll actually be building

• Building and shipping core AI-driven product features
• Maintaining and evolving the existing platform
• Designing and implementing scalable cloud infrastructure
• Writing production-grade code across backend and AI workflows
• Working closely with the founder on technical decisions and architecture
• Taking ownership of security, data handling, and system reliability
• Helping lay the foundations for future technical hires and team growth

Requirements

This role is ideal for an engineer with strong LLM and MCP experience who enjoys building from first principles and wants to grow into a senior technical or leadership role as the company scales.

The kind of builder we're looking for:

  • Experience building and shipping AI or machine learning systems in production;
  • Strong hands-on experience working with LLMs and MCP-based workflows;
  • Solid backend engineering background and comfort owning production systems;
  • Ability to design, build, and maintain reliable systems with minimal supervision;
  • Comfort working in early-stage environments where problems are not fully defined;
  • Strong ownership mindset and pride in building things that actually work.
