To augment the scouting power of the most innovative corporations in the world with AI.
Role
Who you are
- You have 3+ years of experience in Software Engineering, ideally at a product-driven fast-paced tech startup
- Experience working in eXtreme Programming teams. You have seen the benefits of practices such as TDD, small and frequent releases or pair programming
- You have a great product sense and you use it along with your technical expertise to add value to our users
- You have experience doing product discovery, not just delivering features
- You have a genuine passion about technology and the AI revolution, constantly exploring new tools that can elevate the product and streamline day-to-day workflows
- You see the software you create as a way of generating value for our users, not as an end
- Even though you are more experienced with Full Stack Technologies, you are able (or want to learn) to be effective in other areas such as Infrastructure or Data Engineering, because you are a T-shaped Engineer
- Professional proficiency in English. Spanish is a plus
- You want to join an ambitious, high-performing team that dreams about building something meaningful and impactful
- You thrive in a culture of open, candid, and constructive feedback taking place in all directions
- You leave your ego behind to make sure you accomplish what is best for your team and your company
- You are looking for an exciting challenge, and compensation is only one of many factors to assess this opportunity (don’t worry, our compensation is competitive!)
- Your words and commitments are very important to you - you are reliable, punctual, and don't drop the ball
- You embrace balance at work: you know when to go the extra mile, and when to slow down
- You don't hesitate to take the initiative to solve the problems you identify without needing others to ask you to do so
What the job involves
- You'll provide technical insights during problem definition and solution ideation, to help the team come up with a Lean version of the solution
- You'll make data-informed decisions using insights about the business, the users and our systems
- You'll use the qualitative and quantitative data that your Lean solution produced to keep iterating it, making it more reliable, with higher performance or more scalable
- You'll work within a cross-functional team alongside product managers, designers, and other engineers to deliver high-quality products that exceed customer expectations
- You’ll lead the Full Stack Development within a cross-functional team, ensuring the delivery of high-quality solutions that positively impact the customer experience
- In our Engineering team we use Typescript, Python, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Remix, Prisma, Testing Library, Docker, RabbitMQ, Langchain
- For data, we use Airbyte, Dagster and DBT and we have our Data Warehouse in Google Big Query
- We have our CI/CD pipelines in GitHub
- We deploy in Kubernetes on AWS multiple times per day
- We use New Relic as an all-in-one observability platform
- It would be great if you’ve worked with these tools before, but you don’t need to be an expert in all of them to be a strong candidate. We’re looking for product-minded engineers who want to make an impact, and we’ll support you in adapting to our tech stack if needed
Application process
- After you apply, we will review your submission and decide whether we invite you to a quick intro call with the Hiring Manager for this role
- If we decide to invite you and this initial call goes well, we will then invite you to start a 3 step fast interview process that we promise will be exciting — you will get to meet some of the leaders and future peers at FounderNest, and you will get a great flavor of what working at FounderNest looks like
Our take
FounderNest's AI-powered scouting technology enables founders and investors to connect in a neutral, efficient, and transparent way. Its AI Scout finds "companies that cannot be searched for" saving users time and money while increasing their connection opportunities.
The company has users across a range of industries across the world, including pharma, banking, insurance, construction, and more. Having emerged from stealth mode, the company is now backed by several top investors (the likes of which were early investors in Paypal, Square, Pinterest, Palantir, and Waze).
FounderNest has consistently grown over the last year, seeing 2x MoM growth and more than tripling its workforce. The company is focusing on continued hiring to further scale across the globe.
