Backed by Founders Fund, Lightspeed and Norwest.
About the role
Faire is building the future of wholesale, connecting independent retailers with the brands that will define their stores. At the heart of this mission is Compass — Faire’s user facing AI bet within the Discovery Pillar — building an always-present, context-aware retailer assistant along the enagement journey. Compass helps retailers make smarter buying decisions by combining Faire’s rich proprietary data with agentic AI and web search, and is increasingly able to take action on retailers’ behalf.
What they're looking for
- Strong applied ML / data science foundation — reasons from data, designs experiments and evals, and has turned proprietary or structured data into product capability
- Track record of shipping fast across multiple stacks (backend, data, and ideally frontend) with quality — not a single-layer specialist, demonstrates cross-stack range
- AI-native in practice: uses AI coding tools and agent workflows as a force multiplier in day-to-day work
- Architectural maturity — can explain design choices that work simply today but won’t need to be thrown away when requirements grow
- Operates with high autonomy and resourcefulness, with good judgment about when to escalate and when to just solve it
- Fluent enough in engineering to make sound architecture calls
