Founding Software Engineer | AI Developer Infrastructure | Rust / TypeScript | NYCLocation: New York City (5 days onsite)
Their platform gives engineering leaders visibility into how AI coding agents perform across the software development lifecycle-tracking AI-generated code from prompt through production to help teams measure quality, reliability, and developer productivity.
Already seeing strong enterprise adoption, they're now looking to hire
three Founding Engineers to help define both the product and the company.
The Opportunity This is a genuine founding engineering role where you'll own major technical decisions from day one.
You'll work across architecture, product development, infrastructure, and customer deployments while collaborating directly with the founding team and early enterprise customers.
The engineering challenges are deeply technical, spanning developer tooling, distributed systems, observability, Git internals, and large-scale data processing.
What You'll Be Building - Core systems that track AI-generated code throughout the software development lifecycle
- High-performance pipelines for ingesting, processing, and querying developer and AI agent activity
- Integrations with leading AI coding assistants and developer platforms
- Observability systems that measure agent performance, code quality, and engineering productivity
- Infrastructure supporting secure, high-performance enterprise deployments
- Developer tooling that operates transparently with virtually no workflow disruption
- Open standards for AI code attribution and developer telemetry
You'll also work closely with design partners and enterprise customers, helping shape both the technical roadmap and the future direction of the platform.
What We're Looking For You'll likely bring:
- 5+ years of professional software engineering experience
- Experience working in high-growth startups (Seed through Series C)
- Strong backend, infrastructure, distributed systems, or full-stack engineering experience
- Experience building production systems where performance, scalability, and reliability matter
- A high level of ownership and the ability to thrive with ambiguity
- Strong product instincts and an interest in building tools that developers genuinely enjoy using
The engineering team primarily works with
Rust and
TypeScript, although experience in those languages isn't a prerequisite.
Bonus experience includes:
- Developer tools or developer infrastructure
- Git internals
- Observability or telemetry platforms
- Distributed systems and high-scale backend infrastructure
Why This Role? - Founding engineer opportunity with meaningful equity
- Solve genuinely difficult engineering problems at the forefront of AI software development
- Build products used by engineering teams at leading enterprises
- Work directly alongside experienced, repeat founders
- Shape engineering culture, product direction, and technical architecture from the earliest stages
- Join a small, highly technical team where every engineer has significant ownership
Compensation - Base Salary: $190,000-$220,000
- Meaningful founding equity package
- Medical, dental, and vision coverage
- In-person collaboration in New York City
- High-autonomy, fast-moving engineering culture
If you're excited by developer infrastructure, distributed systems, AI tooling, or building category-defining products from the ground up, I'd be happy to share more details confidentially.
