Who You Are

You have 4-10+ years of experience in full-stack engineering, building products in a fast-paced startup environment.

You have a CS degree from a top university, and/or significant work experience at a top, hypergrowth startup.

You have strong product sense, a high degree of ownership, and the ability to operate autonomously. You have demonstrated experience in growing, building, and scaling the codebase of high-growth startups.

You're excited to work in-person at an early-stage company, talk to customers and get your hands dirty across a variety of products and domains.

What You'll Do

You will work with the founders and early employees to build a category-defining product, continue scaling it to massive enterprises, and become a leader in the organization.

To accomplish this, you will own and ship products.

• You’ll talk to customers throughout the day over Slack/Teams, video and phone calls.
• You’ll listen to their needs and develop a plan based on the highest priority items.
• You’ll ship code to execute on the plan. We put new code into production multiple times per day.
  
  

We’ll do this every day, together, in-person, because we understand that every minute counts in the early days of a startup. This is going to be intense early-stage startup work; the person we hire is expected to become a leader and help form the company’s vision and culture.

Our tech

We have a fully serverless backend built on top of AWS, consisting of a collection of Go microservices. We use React/Typescript to build client applications across web, desktop, and mobile. We create our own RAG pipelines.

Day in the life

As a Founding Engineer, Every Day You’ll Need To Build Fast And Well With a Laser-focus On Customer Impact. Here’s a Typical Day

• 9:30 AM. Join a call with a managing partner at a law firm (“KAJ Law”) that recently started using PointOne. They ask if our system integrates with Slack, but it does not. After the call, you draft a plan for the new feature—depending on the priority, you might target a same-day turnaround.
• 11:27 AM. As we’re working, we see that we’re running into a capacity issue causing a slowdown for some users. All hands on deck to figure out what’s going on and resolve the issue.
• 2:43 PM. Slack communication feature is complete. Deploy new code and email the team at KAJ Law to let them know about the new capability.
• 3:00 PM. Lead a new-customer onboarding call, taking note of the user’s reaction to the product.
• 5:45 PM. Team dinner. We chat about life, news, work, etc.
• 6:23 PM. With the big hurdles of the day overcome, time to go heads down see if we can incorporate vision models to improve the automated billing assistant.
