Sol is an agentic HR system built for how work is changing. Backed by NEA.
About the role
You'll build Sol's product surface end to end — from backend services and APIs to the modern, AI-native interfaces our customers use. The product is early and the surface area is wide: you'll regularly ship features that span data model to UI, working closely with the founding team and our domain architects. Build product features across the stack: Kotlin/JVM backend services, APIs, and the frontend experiences they power
What they're looking for
- You have deep backend experience in Kotlin or Java — services, APIs, and data models that hold up in production — and you design for composition, not one-off use
- You understand your tools below the surface: JVM behavior, concurrency, data access patterns, where performance actually goes to die
- You're comfortable crossing into the frontend — working TypeScript familiarity and the willingness to ship UI, not just hand off an API
- You want breadth — features that run from data model to pixels — and the ambiguity that comes with shaping an early product
- You use AI coding tools daily and have developed real fluency with them — this is how we work, not an experiment
- You're scrappy, curious, and want the ownership that comes with an early team
More about this role
Sol is an agentic HR system built for how work is changing. We're replacing the traditional HRIS with an AI-native foundation. We are built for change, designed to scale, and reimagined with AI from the ground up, so HR leaders get a clear view of their workforce instead of a system everyone works around.
At Sol, we're guided by three things: people: we hire driven, humble people and build to amplify their potential and our customers'; imagination: we challenge assumptions about our industry and how software gets built, then move fast once we've decided; and durability: we sweat the details to build a company that is meant to last. Day to day, that shows up as a bias toward writing things down over meetings, async communication by default, and flexible hours that respect how differently everyone works. We try new things, kill what isn't working, and hold a high bar without the politics or ego that slow good decisions down.
Sol was founded by leaders who spent decades building the modern HR category, and is backed by Sutter Hill Ventures and NEA. Our first customers go live in early 2027 and we need you to make them wildly successful.
