Overview of Role
We are seeking an experienced Full-stack Engineer to build a new GenAI consumer media platform, working alongside CEO Irfan Manji. Irfan is a veteran consumer product leader, with a history of successful 0-to-1 product launches at Meta (Instagram) and Zillow. The company is funded by Heretic Ventures.
The ideal candidate has personally built and launched a consumer product from scratch and is ready to work with new technologies and architectures in a flexible, forward-thinking organization that’s always pushing boundaries. This person will collaborate closely with Design and an ML/AI engineer to bring all the pieces together for a delightful consumer-facing experience, which they will code themselves. The ideal founding engineer has experience building products across the stack and a firm understanding of web frameworks, APIs, databases, and multiple back-end languages.
This is a unique opportunity to help build a billion-dollar company from the ground up while learning from successful repeat entrepreneurs, product leaders, and a bench of powerful and experienced mentors and advisors. While we prefer a permanent founding engineer, we are open to discussing a contract role - please approach us to discuss.
This is a hybrid role with the expectation of 3 days per week in-person in our sunny Presidio, SF office. The position is compensated with salary, benefits, and equity.
