Company mission
To power people decisions with the truth.
Role
Who you are
- You have personally shipped software for external users and owned a meaningful outcome from problem definition through production
- You have real depth in at least one technical area and can cross product, frontend, and backend boundaries when the outcome requires it
- You use AI coding agents heavily and can still design, implement, review, and debug independently
- You want direct customer contact, hands-on implementation, and responsibility after launch
- You care deeply about architecture, correctness, and technical craft, but judge them by the product they enable
- You want product judgment to be part of software engineering, not something delivered through a roadmap
- Our stack includes React, TypeScript, Python, AWS, Postgres, and S3. Experience with these exact technologies is not required
What the job involves
- You will work on problems such as:
- Building agents that can pursue recruiting objectives over days, know when to ask for judgment, and recover safely when a model or tool fails
- Turning interview and hiring-team conversations into actions, with interfaces that let recruiters understand, correct, and trust the result
- Making architectural tradeoffs across the interface, APIs, data model, permissions, and production behavior of the same workflow
- Designing controls and recovery paths for agents acting in customer systems; and
- Turning repeated product patterns into simple primitives that support many recruiting workflows
- In your first 3 to 6 months, you should independently own and ship a bounded customer outcome from problem definition through rollout and iteration. The size of that outcome will reflect your level, but the operating model is the same: make product and technical decisions, contribute the consequential code, and own the production result
- This opening spans mid-level and staff+ scope under the same hands-on operating model
- At mid-level, you will independently own a bounded customer outcome across product and implementation
- At staff+, you will still write code while setting direction for a broader area, making hard architectural tradeoffs, and raising the quality of decisions around you
- We level on demonstrated scope, not years served
- This is a hands-on product IC role. It is not a people-management or model-research role
Our take
Hiring is one of the highest-stakes decisions a company makes, yet it still runs largely on gut instinct. The talent acquisition software market is worth roughly $25 billion, but the interviews at its core, arguably the richest source of hiring signal, have historically vanished the moment they end. Capturing that unstructured conversation and turning it into usable data is a genuinely hard problem, and a fast-growing corner of the market.
Metaview was founded by Siadhal Magos and Shahriar Tajbakhsh, who saw the gap in hiring data first-hand while scaling Uber and Palantir. Built as an AI-native platform, it has captured over three million interviews, a proprietary and context-rich dataset that is hard to replicate. The company has raised more than $50 million from top-tier investors, with Google Ventures leading its Series B, and is growing five times year on year, with coverage in Fortune, Forbes, TechCrunch and The Times.
The pitch is to automate the toil and augment the human, and the depth of Metaview's hiring data sets it apart. But general-purpose AI notetakers and established hiring platforms are circling the same ground, and tightening regulation around AI and bias in recruitment adds pressure.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Metaview
Siadhal Magos (CEO)
- We believe the best — and only — way to fast-forward to the truth is by thinking differently. And we can only think differently if we have unique and varied perspectives.
- We cultivate a high-trust environment for all team members. The only thing that matters is the quality of the work, and that we're having fun while we're producing it.
- As we grow, we are intent on achieving a better gender balance.
- Our product is itself one of the best tools for improving fairness and consistency of hiring practises. For example, Metaview's data shows that female candidates get 12% less air time during interviews than their male counterparts. By empowering customers with these insights, we are finally enabling them to solve the causes of these issues.
