Software Engineer

About the company

Our client is a 16-person enterprise AI company building agents that automate complex procurement workflows for large physical goods businesses. Its platform operates over existing enterprise systems and fragmented data, resolving exceptions across source-to-pay. It is already running in production at Fortune 500 companies.

The role and why it matters

This full-stack Software Engineer will own core systems for AI agents and help shape the architecture alongside the CTO. You will move across infrastructure, data pipelines, and product interfaces, finding the highest-value problems and taking them through to production.

What you will do

• Design and own core AI agent systems that operate over messy enterprise data.
• Build production Python systems, distributed services, and reliable data pipelines.
• Work across infrastructure and frontend interfaces as priorities change.
• Talk directly with enterprise customers and translate procurement problems into product improvements.
• Learn the codebase and business quickly, identify valuable problems, and ship solutions independently.
• Partner with the CTO and engineering team on architecture, debugging, and platform scaling.

What we are looking for

• At least three years of software engineering experience; the baseline target is three to seven years, with flexibility for experienced individual contributors.
• Production full-stack engineering experience spanning infrastructure through UI, with strong systems fundamentals.
• Deep Python experience, or strong proficiency in another language and the ability to ramp up quickly.
• Experience building distributed systems or data pipelines at a leading AI lab, technology company, or venture-backed growth-stage startup.
• Curiosity, independent technical judgment, clear communication, and collaborative ownership.
• Availability to work onsite in San Francisco five days per week and enthusiasm for an individual contributor role.

Bonus points

• Experience as a founder or founding engineer.
• Experience with procurement, supply chain, manufacturing, or industrial software customers.
• Experience with agent architecture, knowledge graphs, graph traversal, indexing, or multi-tenant systems.

Compensation and benefits

• Base salary: $200K-$350K, depending on experience and fit.
• Competitive equity, with specific terms determined during the offer process.
• Visa transfers, including H1B and OPT transfers, are considered. New sponsorship is not the standard route.
