## About the role

You’re a builder: an experienced engineer who wants to understand the customer’s problem, work out a useful solution, and build it yourself. You’re happiest close to customers and hands-on in the code, turning what you learn into software that improves how people work. Strong engineering is table stakes. Your experience gives you the judgment to make sound technical decisions, move quickly, and take solutions through to production autonomously. You use that independence to focus on customer value. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Founder, founding engineer, or early startup work with substantial personal ownership of customer problems and technical delivery. What you owned, learned, and delivered matters more than the company’s eventual size or success
- Operational or workflow-heavy B2B products, marketplaces, or systems serving multiple types of user
- AI-assisted or agent-driven features in production, especially where human oversight and trust matter
- Evidence that you changed or abandoned something you believed in because customer feedback or results showed a better path
- Experience in automotive, repair, parts, or insurance is useful, as is familiarity with Rust, which is part of our stack. Neither is required
