关于 Vulcury
Vulcury 是一家风险投资工作室，构建了一系列以自有 AI 和数据基础设施为根基的公司。我们的两个主要项目是 Trustbridge，一个制造和供应链匹配平台，以及 Calisade，一个投资研究和资产管理项目，拥有出色的业绩记录。我们得到了一位坚定的主要投资者的支持，并以一支小型、刻意资深的团队运营。
职位描述
我们正在招聘一名创始工程师，负责我们第一个产品的技术开发——Trustbridge 供应商匹配应用，并随着时间推移成长为工作室中的高级技术核心。这是一份全职、长期的职位，不是合同或项目制。我们寻找希望在初创公司中长期发展的候选人。
你将向创始人汇报工作，同时由我们的兼职 CTO（拥有大型金融科技背景）提供技术监督和架构支持。你将领导并培养我们在印度的初级工程师和实习生团队。
你将参与的工作
短期内，你的工作集中在 Trustbridge 供应商应用上：模型选择、代理和匹配逻辑、数据和推理层、API 表面，以及将其呈现给真实用户的生产基础设施。该产品是一个发现工具——真实的供应商使用情况会告诉我们下一步要做什么，而你将是将这些信号转化为下一次迭代的人。
从更长远的角度来看，工作范围会扩展。工作室正在构建跨组合的数据和 AI 基础设施，连接 Trustbridge、Calisade 和未来项目。随着楔形产品的成熟，你将帮助塑造该基础设施，并承担相邻领域的工作的技术领导职责——Calisade 侧的机器学习应用、跨组合语义层，以及我们在 AI 实施实践中的外部客户合作。
我们不招聘固定范围的职位。我们招聘的是一个预期能在组合增长过程中跨多个问题领域重新部署的人才。
你是什么样的人
- 7–12 年的专业软件工程经验，具有在应用 ML、AI 系统或现代数据基础设施方面的深入经验。我们不寻找任何单一子领域的专家——我们寻找的是有真实生产经验的高级通才。
- 你有从头到尾交付生产系统的经验。不是原型

Job Title: SeniorFounding Engineer
Senior · India · Full-timeLocation: Remote
About Vulcury
Vulcury is a venture studio building a portfolio of companies anchored by proprietary AI and data infrastructure. Our two lead ventures are Trustbridge, a manufacturing and supply chain matchmaking platform, and Calisade, an investment research and asset management venture with a strong performance track record. We are backed by a committed lead investor and operate with a small, deliberately senior team.
The Role
We are hiring a founding engineer to lead the technical build of our first production product — a Trustbridge supplier matching application — and to grow into a senior technical anchor across the studio over time. This is a full-time, permanent role, not a contract or a project hire. We are looking for someone who wants a long-horizon seat at a company in formation.
You will report to the founder, with technical oversight and architecture support from our Fractional CTO (background in major financial technology). You will lead and grow our existing team of junior engineers and interns based in India.
What You Will Work On
In the near term, your work centers on the Trustbridge supplier app: model selection, agent and matching logic, the data and inference layer, the API surface, and the production infrastructure that gets it in front of real users. The product is a discovery instrument — real supplier usage will tell us what to build next, and you will be the person turning that signal into the next iteration.
Over a longer horizon, the work expands. The studio is building a cross-portfolio data and AI infrastructure that connects Trustbridge, Calisade, and future ventures. As the wedge product matures, you will help shape that infrastructure and take on technical leadership of work in adjacent domains — applied ML on the Calisade side, the cross-portfolio semantic layer, and external client engagements in our AI implementation practice.
We are not hiring for a fixed scope. We are hiring someone we expect to redeploy across multiple problem areas as the portfolio grows.
Who You Are
- 7–12 years of professional software engineering experience, with meaningful depth in applied ML, AI systems, or modern data infrastructure. We are not looking for a specialist in any single sub-discipline — we are looking for a senior generalist with real production chops.
- You have shipped a production system end-to-end. Not a prototype, not a research artifact. You can talk concretely about what broke, what you learned, and what you would do differently.
- You are comfortable across the stack you would touch in this role: model and agent design, data modeling and pipelines, backend services, and the production infrastructure that holds it all together. You do not need to be the world expert in all of these. You do need to be competent across most of them and have a clear opinion about where your center of gravity sits.
- You have led junior engineers before. You know how to set a technical bar without micromanaging, and you know how to grow people.
- You write clearly — code, design docs, decisions, and the occasional message to a non-technical founder who needs to understand the tradeoffs.
- You are comfortable with ambiguity. Requirements will evolve as real users start using what you build, and you need to find that energizing rather than frustrating.
- You want to build something that lasts. You are looking for a long-horizon seat at a company in formation, not a resume line.
Nice to Have
- Experience with dbt, modern data warehouse design, or feature stores.
- Background in supply chain, manufacturing, financial services, or investment data.
- Prior experience as a founding or early engineer at a venture-backed startup.
- Experience working across time zones with US-based founders or clients.
Location and Working Style
Remote, based in India — preference for Bangalore, Hyderabad, Pune, or Chennai for occasional in-person collaboration. We work with a 3–4 hour daily overlap window with US Pacific time, primarily for design reviews and founder syncs. The rest of the day is yours for focused build work.
Compensation
Competitive base salary calibrated to senior engineering roles at top-tier Indian technology companies and well-funded startups, plus meaningful equity in Vulcury Ventures LLC. Equity vests over four years with a one-year cliff. Specific numbers will be discussed with shortlisted candidates.
