The Opportunity

We're looking for builders who ship at speed in the world of AI engineering.

You know that feeling when you're in a co-working space and everyone's just grinding

That

energy when someone's debugging at 2pm, figures it out, ships it by 4pm, and moves to the

next thing That's the vibe.

We want engineers who say let me try something instead of how does this work

What Makes You a Ninja

You're excited to:

Ship features users see within days, not months

Build full-stack: React UI → API → database → deploy

Figure things out yourself (read docs, hunt through code, test stuff)

Own problems end-to-end and make them work

Learn by breaking things and fixing them fast

Work on whatever needs to get done: frontend, backend, integrations, tools

You don't need:

Perfect specs before you start coding

Someone to hold your hand through every step

A senior title or ego validation

To ask 10 questions before writing your first line of code

Approval to try something new

Day-to-Day Reality

Morning: Product says we need invoice PDF generation

You: Read docs, check PDF libraries, start coding

By EOD: Working prototype users can test

Afternoon: Bug reported in payment flow

You: Hunt through logs, find the issue, fix it, deploy

2 hours later: Users confirm it's working

Next day: Can we integrate with QuickBooks

You: Read QuickBooks API docs, test auth flow, build integration

By week end: Customers syncing invoices automatically

No drama. No waiting. Just ship.

What You'll Build

Customer-Facing Products

Payment dashboards, invoicing tools, reporting UIs

Payment flows, checkout experiences, transaction history

Admin panels, analytics, customer portals

Backend & Integrations

REST APIs for frontend features

Integrations with payment processors, accounting tools

Webhooks, background jobs, data sync pipelines

Database queries, schema changes, data migrations

Data analytics

Whatever Needs Doing

Automation scripts, internal tools, CI/CD improvements

Bug fixes, performance optimizations, monitoring

Customer requests, support escalations, production issues

How you are expected to operate

Ship First, Perfect Later

Build → Deploy → Get feedback → Iterate

AI tools (Cursor, Copilot, Claude) handle code generation, you solve real problems

Automated CI/CD gets your code to production fast

Learn by Doing

Senior Engineer guides when needed, otherwise you figure it out

Read docs, browse code, test locally, break things safely

Real production systems, real user feedback, real learning

Low Ego, High Output

No politics, no titles — just build and ship

Everyone pitches in on everything

Exposed to entire company: product, ops, customers, CTO

Requirements

Technical (Baseline)

2-4 years of building software (or strong side projects/hustle)

React/Next.js/JavaScript/TypeScript: Build modern UIs, components, hooks, state management

Core: Go (Golang), Python, Redis

Data: SQL, PostgreSQL, AWS S3

Git basics: Commit, push, PR, merge

Mindset (Critical)

Hunter mentality: Let me figure this out is your first response

Execution speed: More code than questions

Learn fast: Pick up new tech by doing, not just reading

Fail forward: Try → Break → Fix → Learn → Repeat

Zero ego: Happy to learn, happy to ship, happy to be here

Grind mode activated: You're all-in on making this work

What You'll Gain In 12 months:

Ship dozens of features impacting thousands of users

Master full-stack development: React → Go → PostgreSQL → AWS

Build payment systems processing millions in real transactions

Debug production systems under real pressure

Understand fintech: payments, compliance, distributed systems

Become an engineer who can build anything, anywhere

Career Growth:

Prove yourself by shipping → take on bigger challenges

CTO & founding team (direct access, no hierarchy)

Small team = high impact = fast growth.
