About the Role
Join an early-stage, Y Combinator-backed AI marketing automation startup as a Founding Engineer (Full-Stack). You'll be one of the first engineers on the team, taking full ownership of features from concept through deployment — working directly with founders and customers to shape the product and infrastructure from the ground up.
What You'll Do
Own end-to-end feature development across the full stack: frontend (Vue.js/Nuxt), backend (Node.js/TypeScript), and AI agent integrations (LangGraph)
Architect and maintain robust PostgreSQL database schemas using Supabase, ensuring data integrity and performance
Manage deployments, background jobs, and infrastructure using Render and Inngest; maintain dedicated deployments on Microsoft Azure
Apply user-centric design thinking across the full product lifecycle
Collaborate closely with the operations team and customers (via Slack and Notion) to align technical solutions with real user needs
Contribute to tooling and internal workflows using Linear, GitHub, Slack, and Notion
What We're Looking For
Required:
2+ years of professional software engineering experience delivering full-stack web applications
Hands-on experience with TypeScript and Node.js backend development
Strong proficiency with PostgreSQL and relational database design
Frontend experience with Vue.js + Nuxt, or React/Next.js
Experience owning features end-to-end — from concept through deployment to maintenance
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
Willing and able to relocate to San Francisco and work on-site
Nice to Have:
Experience deploying and managing applications with Render and Inngest; familiarity with Microsoft Azure
Background or exposure to marketing technology or AdTech
Experience integrating with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.) or building AI/ML-powered features
Familiarity with serverless workflows or event-driven architecture
