## About the role

This is a Founding Software Engineer role for Westgate Supply. You’ll build the core agent infrastructure that runs our business: RFQ in, vendor sourcing, pricing, quote out, order, fulfillment. Today a lot of that is humans on the phone. Your job is to turn it into a machine that scales to $100B. You’ll ship fast, own what you ship, and work side by side with ops and sales, who are your users and your harshest critics. You’ll be in person in San Francisco, building from scratch. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Strong engineer who has shipped production systems end to end and owns outcomes, not tickets
- Experience building with LLMs and agents: tool use, orchestration, evals, and failure handling in the real world
- Systems thinking. You care about latency, concurrency, state, and reliability, and you think in terms of throughput
- Obsessively detail-oriented. Messy real-world data doesn’t scare you, you want to clean it
- Fast. You ship in days, not quarters, and you’re comfortable making calls with incomplete information
- Calm under pressure when something breaks and a customer’s job is on the line
