About the role

We're looking for a high-trajectory SWE to build the AI agents that will automate how $2T of industrial goods move through the supply chain.

What you'll do - Build and ship autonomous AI agents that process orders, generate quotes, and make inventory decisions without human intervention - Integrate with messy enterprise systems - ERPs, CRMs, inboxes, and phone systems that distributors actually use - Write high-performance backend services that handle inventory optimization algorithms, complex pricing logic and more What we're looking for A systems-minded engineer who wants to build software that runs real businesses.

Specifically: - Experience with Next.js, TS, Python (FastAPI), PostgreSQL - our core stack - Familiarity with C# is a plus for working with legacy enterprise SDKs - You've racked up 1000s of hours in combined LLM usage and productizing - you have a deep familiarity with them, and deep knowledge of LLM research, agents, tool calling, robustness - We hire on trajectory, not resume length Our Culture - Focus. Accelerate industrial commerce.

Everything else is noise - Ownership. You build, deploy, and own outcomes - Velocity. Ship fast. No red tape. We work 9-9-6 - Impact. Your code runs $Xbn+ customer operations Compensation & Benefits - Top of line compensation, founding equity - Visa sponsorship - we will do everything in our power to get you to SF - No barriers - we cover relocation, team meals, and whatever tools or resources you need to get the job done - Elite team - a small, intense group from the world’s best institutions.

We’re obsessed with winning and have a lot of fun along the way
