Summary
What you’ll impact
The Founding Engineer will own the entire full‑stack and data platform, managing schemas, pipelines, and deployments while working directly with the founder to set the roadmap. The role emphasizes building on existing revenue‑generating systems, leveraging AI tools, and ensuring high performance at scale in a Dallas‑based startup environment.
Responsibilities
What you'll do
- You own the platform.
- Every schema, every pipeline, every deploy is yours.
- You work directly with the founder and write your own roadmap.
- A small overseas team handles infrastructure operations.
- The systems you inherit already make money; you harden them and build the next layer on top.
- Everything here is built with AI tools.
- The knowledge base is machine-readable by design, agents sit inside half the systems, and the team ships daily.
- If you still hand-type boilerplate, this job will frustrate you.
Requirements
What you’ll bring
- A genuinely cracked full-stack/data engineer: 5+ years shipping production systems you owned end to end
- Calm when the Postgres table has 200M rows and the query still has to come back fast
- Fluent in Python and TypeScript, or close enough that it doesn't matter
- Someone who has worked at a startup or built your own thing, and wrote the spec yourself
- Already building with AI coding tools every day
- In Dallas
