About the job
A venture-backed startup running an on-demand staffing marketplace for hourly and supply-chain work wants a product engineer who can fold AI agents into everyday software. The aim is to automate how workers are found, vetted, matched and placed, building on an agent platform that another team maintains.
What the seat covers
Put existing agents and cutting-edge models to work across the worker-facing app, the app for businesses, the ops platform and the marketplace, automating vetting, matching and fulfilment
Drive both frontend and backend work and mentor teammates
Architect core systems including live matching, self-running vetting flows, distributed services and APIs
Take full responsibility for product surfaces, collaborating with product and design colleagues
Shift between priorities as they change, which might mean an agent one quarter and a payments flow the next
Skills and background
Three to five years owning features and products at a fast-growing startup, with tangible business results
Depth in TypeScript, React or React Native, Node.js and/or PostgreSQL
Equally at home with interface design, user experience and the infrastructure used to deploy software
Ideally 0-to-1 work on agentic AI, or marketplace and matching systems
Strong product instincts and enthusiasm for fast-paced, ambiguous, cross-functional work
Ready to be in the office five days a week
