Founding Fullstack Engineer
Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Nov 6, 2026. First seen by Alion on Nov 2, 2026.
About the Role
Join an early-stage AI company as its first in-person engineering hire in New York. You will own the core systems around AI agents, connecting business platforms and logistics partners so wholesale operations can run reliably.
What You'll Do
Take customer-facing features from discovery through design, implementation, and production.
Design secure, auditable data models and event-driven pipelines that support agent workflows.
Build internal and external APIs and a real-time operator console for operational visibility.
Develop integrations with ERP systems, logistics providers, retailers, and freight partners.
Build resilient synchronization systems and establish observability, SLOs, and on-call practices.
Work across backend, data engineering, and frontend systems wherever you can have the greatest impact.
What We're Looking For
Two to six years of software engineering experience, including hands-on product engineering at a startup or small team.
A strong full-stack foundation and experience building robust, reliable production systems outside consultancy.
Experience with TypeScript, Node.js, React, Tailwind, Postgres, queues or streams, and AWS or GCP.
Product intuition and systems thinking, with attention to both developer and operator experience.
Startup or small-team experience, or fewer than five years working exclusively at large technology companies.
Strong early-career signals such as rigorous technical training, experience at a high-growth startup, or a brief period at a large technology company.
Compensation & Benefits
Base salary is $160,000 to $250,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is available.
Location
On-site in New York City, five days a week. Candidates must be willing to work on-site or relocate.
