About the Role
This is a chance to own a new product line at a fast-growing AI company, not just write code, but build something from the ground up.
We're hiring a Senior Engineer to take over an early-stage product from the CTO and make it their own. You'll inherit a working MVP, productionize it, and scale it. This is a 0→1 role, you'll own everything from prompt engineering to data modeling to full-stack feature development.
If you want to own a product, not just write code for someone else's vision — this is your role.
What You'll Do
- Own the Product: Take over from the CTO as primary engineer. This becomes your product.
- Productize: Turn a working MVP into a reliable, scalable, maintainable system. Handle edge cases, add observability, make it operable.
- Prompt Engineering: Own the AI behavior — build guardrails, tune conversations, improve over time
- Data Modeling: Understand and extend a complex orchestration system. Build new entities that fit into existing primitives.
- Full-Stack Development: Build dashboards, analytics, integrations, multi-channel features
- Data Analysis: Instrument for reporting, make decisions based on what the data shows
You Might Be a Good Fit If You
- Have 4+ years of software engineering experience
- Are strong in TypeScript (our entire stack) and AWS
- Use AI to code — Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or equivalent. This is how we work.
- Have strong prompt engineering skills — or are excited to develop them
- Can work with complex data models (ERDs, relational schemas, SQL)
- Are full-stack capable — backend, APIs, dashboards
- Thrive in ambiguity — you can take a PRD and turn it into working software
- Want to own a product, not just contribute to one
Bonus Points
- Experience with CRM integrations
- Built multi-channel messaging systems (SMS, email, voice)
- Worked on 0→1 products before
- Experience with outbound/marketing automation
- Automotive or dealership domain knowledge
