About flowscope

AI implementation firm that maps and automates business processes. Backed by Y Combinator.

About the role

Enterprise software has a delivery problem. Every customer works differently, so fitting their workflows to a SaaS product takes months of forward-deployed engineers, consultants and integrators. Custom builds from consultancies cost millions and rarely get past the proof of concept. As founding engineer, you build the software factory: the capture layer, the workflow models, and the agents that turn them into shipped software

What they're looking for

  • You want to build the future of software production
  • You have a product mindset and can deliver end to end: from client discovery to production code
  • Serious intensity. This is 996
  • A friend! We will spend countless hours building a huge company, so cultural fit is essential

flowscope (YC P26) is building the software factory for enterprise. Our agents capture how a client works, map its workflows, and deliver production software for that client. The end state is a custom, AI-native software stack for every company.

Coding agents change the economics. When code is nearly free, the expensive part is understanding how the client works. Palantir built Foundry, then needed an army of engineers to deploy it. We start from the other end: automate the forward-deployed engineer, and let agents build custom software for each client, instead of one bloated product plus years of customisation.

  • Privacy: redaction and anonymisation...
