AI Native Founding Product and Platform Engineer

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for an AI Native Founding Product and Platform Engineer based in the United States.

This is a founding-level engineering opportunity for a hands-on technical leader who wants to shape a modern digital product and engineering platform from the ground up. You will define architecture, development practices, tooling, and technical standards while actively building production systems. The role spans customer-facing product experiences, distributed backend services, cloud infrastructure, and developer platforms. You will establish scalable foundations that allow a lean engineering organization to move faster, operate safely, and deliver high-quality products. Rather than focusing on governance, you will lead through code, making critical technical decisions through hands-on delivery and pragmatic problem-solving. You will also turn successful engineering patterns into reusable capabilities that can accelerate development across the organization. This is an ideal environment for someone energized by greenfield work, ambiguity, ownership, and the opportunity to shape engineering culture from day one.
