About the role

This is a founding full-stack role. You'll be building our application with the founding team from 0-1 You'll own features and infra end-to-end and across technologies. You'll also own how we build: ensuring our AI development workflow is fast, dependable and secure.


Responsibilities:

  • Build features end to end, across our desktop client, web app, and the backend services that tie them together.
  • Go deep in our cross-platform Electron desktop client, the native OS integration that powers on-device capture, and the on-device privacy and redaction that runs before data leaves the machine.
  • Move fluidly across technologies and layers, picking up whatever a problem needs rather than staying in one corner of the stack.
  • Own the infrastructure and deployment path: CI/CD, releases, and the cloud services everything runs on so shipping stays routine and reliable.
  • Own how we build: keep our AI development workflow fast, dependable, and secure and establish the conventions, tooling, and guardrails that let a small team build like a much larger one.
  • Own observability and on-call basics: logging, error tracking, and alerting so we catch issues before our customers do.
  • Help set technical direction and keep the codebase legible as we scale the engineering team.


Requirements:

  • 1-4 years building software across the stack: frontend, backend, and the glue between them (internships and meaningful side projects count).
  • Comfort working across multiple languages and technologies, and a genuine willingness to learn whatever a problem requires.
  • Solid fundamentals in shipping production software: version control, testing, debugging, and deployment.
  • Experience with, or strong interest in, owning infrastructure and devops: CI/CD, cloud services, and reliability.
  • Genuine excitement about AI-native development; you've used AI coding agents and want to push how far they can go.
  • Comfort with ambiguity and a willingness to own problems end to end in a small team.


Nice to Have:

  • Experience building desktop applications (Electron or native).
  • Experience building internal tooling or automation that made a team measurably faster.
  • Experience building applications for on-premise deployment.
  • Familiarity with managed backend platforms and AI agent tooling.
  • Any prior early-stage startup experience.
  • Degree in computer science or a related field.
