Founding Engineer

Founding Product Engineer — Stealth Consumer + B2B StartupFounder-level ownership. Meaningful early equity. No ticket queue.We're working with a tiny, founder-led startup rebuilding the software layer of a huge, under-loved industry - one still held together by legacy systems, spreadsheets, and WhatsApp groups. Millions of passionate consumers, thousands of businesses, and barely any software built by people who actually live the product.The product is already live on the App Store with alpha users, Android alongside it, and early conversations underway with exactly the kind of customers that make the bar real. They're shipping daily across a consumer app and a B2B operating system: live real-time features, GPS, watchOS, booking, payments, workflows, integrations.What you'll doBuild core product across iOS, Android, the B2B platform, backend, and internal AI-native tooling - whole surfaces, not isolated tasksShip directly from field insight: customer visits, user feedback, real operational painTurn vague, messy, high-context problems into simple decisions and working softwareUse AI aggressively and intelligently — for engineering, prototyping, QA, and product thinkingWho you areA strong product-minded engineer who ships across mobile, backend, and webHigh taste, low ego - you care about speed, feel, and the difference between useful and merely functionalComfortable with ambiguity, allergic to vaguenessYou move fast without making a mess, and AI is part of how you work, not a noveltyWhat this is notNot ticket-taking. Not maintaining a polished enterprise SaaS machine. Not a big team with clean lanes. Not a role where a PM tells you what to build.This is a genuine founding seat: you'll shape the company, the product, the architecture, and the culture. Early enough to matter, far enough along that it's not theoretical.Meaningful early equity. Real ownership. Weird, concrete, exciting work.Curious? Apply or message me directly for the full brief
