About the Role

Build the intelligence layer for an AI-powered recruiting marketplace, including the systems that match candidates with relevant roles. As a founding engineer, you will take ownership of recommendation, ranking, retrieval, and LLM-powered matching from early design through production.

What You'll Do

  • Own the AI/ML systems for recommendations, ranking, and retrieval.

  • Build and improve LLM-powered candidate-to-role matching.

  • Turn product goals into working features and ship them at a rapid cadence.

  • Architect and maintain the production data pipelines and services that support models.

  • Work directly with company leadership to deliver product systems end to end.

What We're Looking For

  • Two to five years of software engineering experience building and shipping production product features.

  • Applied ML engineering experience at a product company or startup, including production recommendation, ranking, or matching systems.

  • Experience shipping LLM-powered features using LLM APIs, as well as hands-on work with PyTorch, TensorFlow, or equivalent ML frameworks.

  • Strong production engineering skills in TypeScript or Python, with experience maintaining data pipelines and services.

  • Strong computer science fundamentals and comfort with fast-paced, iterative startup work.

  • React experience is useful, as are Supabase, Prisma, Typesense or similar search infrastructure, embeddings, vector search, and workflow automation tools.

  • Evidence of strong technical achievement through education, open-source work, or personal projects.
