## About the role

You're a full-stack engineer with applied-AI fluency. Frontend, backend, agents, evals—you move across the stack because the problems don't respect stack boundaries. You optimize for user and business impact, not code elegance. You treat AI tooling as a core part of the workflow, not a novelty. You work directly with founders. No committee. No approval chain. You build it, you ship it, you own the outcome. Prototype Monday, ship Tuesday, measure Wednesday. If it works, push to production.

## What they're looking for

- You get energy from user and business impact, not code elegance
- You write code with AI (Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf) and can manage multiple coding sessions
- You're full-stack by instinct—frontend, backend, and the AI layer that makes decisions
- You've shipped AI to production—real systems serving real users, not demos
- You ship fast and iterate—meaningful features in days that others take months on
- You can present to non-technical people and explain why a metric moved
