What You Will Do
- Own end-to-end product development — from idea, research, and architecture to production.
- Build and ship AI-powered security products across frontend, backend, and APIs.
- Develop scalable, high-quality interfaces and systems that power real user workflows.
- Work with minimal specs — define problems, make decisions, and execute independently.
- Collaborate when needed, but primarily operate with lean ownership and high autonomy.
- Drive adoption and impact — iterate based on real usage, not just requirements.
- Leverage LLMs and AI tooling to accelerate development and improve team productivity.
- Continuously improve systems, code quality, and developer workflows.
What You Will Bring
We’re not looking for just a coder — we want a builder with ownership and first-principles thinking who:
- Is comfortable building end-to-end products (UI, APIs, systems, deployment).
- Thinks from first principles, not just patterns or frameworks.
- Demonstrates high agency — takes ownership, drives clarity, and executes without waiting.
- Writes clean, scalable, maintainable code with strong fundamentals.
- Has experience or strong interest in AI-powered development (LLMs, agents, automation, copilots).
- Uses AI tools to accelerate development and decision-making.
- Can operate in low-structure, fast-moving environments with minimal PM/design dependency.
- Makes pragmatic trade-offs — balances speed, quality, and long-term thinking.
- Cares about shipping real products, not just building components.
- Years of experience does not matter to us, but we think most devs would need 4+ years of engineering experience across frontend + backend.
- Interest and knowledge of security is a plus.
