About Code Metal

Code Metal: Verifiable, AI-enabled code translation. For companies doing edge development, code portability, and code modernization across industries like automotive, defense, semiconductors, and aerospace. Speed time-to-market, meet safety and compliance... Backed by Accel.

About the role

Code Metal's forward-deployed engineers (FDEs) solve hard problems inside secure customer programs every day. Along the way, they invent tools, pipelines, and patterns that make our platform faster and more reliable. That field innovation is one of our richest sources of product value. We're hiring a leader to capture that innovation and turn it into products that customer engineers can use on their own to automate software engineering with trust. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • 10+ years in product, technical consulting, or solutions leadership and management
  • A track record of building tools that make delivery teams faster, and turning services work into repeatable commercial products
  • P&L or revenue ownership for a product line
  • Hands-on depth in agentic developer tools and AI-assisted SDLC, including leading enterprise adoption of them
  • A track record of cutting through complexity to find simple, elegant product solutions
  • Product judgment to tell a one-off customer request from a repeatable product need, and the discipline to say no
More about this role

Code Metal is the leader in automated software engineering you can trust. As AI writes more of the world's code, the bottleneck in software has shifted from writing code to verifying it works, and AI cannot verify its own work with certainty. Code Metal takes a fundamentally different approach: constrain AI to what it does reliably, verify every step independently of the model using formal methods, and keep engineers in the loop on the decisions that matter. The result isn't code that probably works — it's code that is provably correct, with auditable proof. Customers including the U.S. Air Force, L3Harris, RTX, and Toshiba use Code Metal to modernize legacy code, optimize performance on real hardware, and move prototypes to production, fast. Founded in 2023 with offices in Boston and San Francisco, Code Metal is funded by Accel, Salesforce Ventures, B Capital, Smith Point Capital, J2 Ventures, Shield Capital, Overmatch, RTX, and others.
