The Role
Fairmarkit is building a brand new AI and Agentic business line from scratch, and we're assembling a small, elite founding team around it. This is one of the first two technical hires on this venture. You'll work directly with co-founders Kevin Frechette and Victor Kushch every day, with zero bureaucracy between your work and real company impact.
We're looking for builders: current, former, or future founders who want to architect something massive from the ground up. You need to already be deep in AI, shipping, experimenting, and living it daily. You should also have a strong eye for product and design, since you'll be shaping not just how this system works but how it looks and feels to use.
What You'll Do
- Architect and build AI agentic systems from the ground up that reshape how commerce operates
- Own end to end full stack development from front to back, infrastructure to interface, with AI first thinking throughout
- Design and build intuitive, AI native user experiences, not just backend logic
- Prototype quickly and iterate in direct collaboration with co-founders and early customers
- Partner with forward leaning industry leaders who are moving fast and expect the same
- Help define the technical foundation, stack decisions, and engineering culture for a scaling team
- Operate daily in the trenches with leadership, with high visibility, high ownership, and high impact
What You'll Bring
- Hands on experience building and deploying LLM powered applications or agentic systems in production
- Strong full stack engineering fundamentals across modern JS/TS frameworks, Python, REST/GraphQL APIs, and cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, or Azure
- Experience with AI orchestration frameworks such as LangChain, LlamaIndex, AutoGen, CrewAI, or equivalent
- Strong product and design sensibility, with the ability to make good UX calls without a dedicated designer in the room
- The ability to move fast without sacrificing foundational quality: you know when to cut corners and when not to
- A founder mentality: you think about product, users, and business outcomes, not just tickets
- Comfort with ambiguity and zero to one environments where you're building the playbook, not following one
Bonus Points
- Experience with marketplace or PLG products
- Startup or founder experience
- Experience using AI coding tools extensively
- Experience with procurement, supply chain, or B2B commerce
