About the Role

Join an early-stage marketing technology team as its first engineer, owning product features from initial customer problem through launch and ongoing improvement.

  • Strong TypeScript and React experience, with familiarity with Vite, Supabase, Vercel, and ClickHouse.
  • Experience building across frontend, backend, data, and production LLM pipelines or agents.
  • An AI-native development workflow, using coding agents, MCP, or similar tools in day-to-day engineering.
  • Good product judgment and the ability to design straightforward UX for complex workflows.
  • Clear English communication skills and confidence working directly with customers.
  • SEO, GEO, or marketing technology experience is useful.
