Founding Software Engineer, Elyos AI

• If you love building things from the ground up, solving complex technical challenges, and working with cutting-edge AI tech, you’re in the right place
• Customer-obsessed: You start with the customer. You empathise with their needs, ask the right questions, and build with their success in mind
• Biased for action: You try stuff. You move quickly, experiment often, and aren’t afraid to learn in public
• Owner’s mindset: You don’t wait for permission - you take responsibility for outcomes and raise the bar for the whole team
• Ambitious & bold: You think big and take bets. You’re excited to explore new ideas, technologies, and markets that others might shy away from
• Team-first collaborator: You make the next pot of coffee. No task is beneath you, and you care about building a team where everyone can thrive
• Care deeply: You give a shit about the quality of your work. If something you built isn’t great, it nags at you until you make it better
• Strong fundamentals in software engineering - you can design, debug, and ship reliable systems
• Proficiency with at least one of our core languages (Python or TypeScript) - or proof that you can learn what's needed
• Experience building and shipping AI products end-to-end (at a startup, on a side project, in open source, or at scale in a larger company)
• Comfort working across the stack - frontend, backend, infrastructure. You are everywhere
• Ability to work directly with customers or non-technical stakeholders to scope, negotiate, and deliver solutions
• A track record that shows drive: maybe you’ve launched something on your own, contributed to open source, or taken ownership of hairy projects others avoided

Desirable

• Build the future of AI voice: LLMs, speech-to-text, text-to-speech, real-time automation at scale, you name it
• Solve hard problems & ship world-changing tech with a world class team
• At Elyos, we’re building AI voice agents that help trades businesses run smoother, scale faster, and deliver better customer experiences
• As one of our founding engineers, you won’t just build software - you’ll shape the way Elyos works, interacts with customers, and grows
• Build and ship core product features across our stack (Python, TypeScript, cloud infra, event-driven systems, third party integrations)
• Own the lifecycle: work directly with customers to understand their needs, scope solutions, and deliver outcomes
• Move fast, when it matters: know when to hack an MVP to deliver value quickly, and when to invest in scalable foundations
• Raise the bar: use best practices everywhere (e.g testing, documentation, reliability, security) and help others do the same
