    Job description

    Who We Are

    We are a well-funded, early-stage technology company currently forming a founding team of the best engineers and professionals to fundamentally redefine the way the world searches, discovers, and transacts, built on a philosophy that puts the user first at every step.

    The user is not simply a means of transaction. They are a valued participant whose data works for them, not against them, enriching their world and their own experience within it, with them retaining full control.

    Our mission is underpinned by proprietary, patent-pending technology built on a novel engine and system.

    The Problem You Will Be Solving

    The internet was built to inform the many, not to serve the individual. Platforms optimize for engagement, extraction, and consumption at global scale. AI has made this model even more efficient, with the user still largely remaining the input, not the full beneficiary.

    The problem is not information. The world has never had more. The problem is that people give away a lifetime of data without receiving the personalized experience it should enable.

    People should not have to search. They should simply find.

    Who You Are

    Highly talented and motivated to build products with people, for people

    You thrive in zero-to-one environments and find genuine satisfaction in creating from scratch

    A fast-paced thinker with a relentless desire to learn, improve, and raise the standard around you

    Able to inspire, elevate, and collaborate; you make the people around you better

    A great communicator; you express complex ideas with clarity, precision, and confidence across all levels of the organization

    Able to transform ideas into working systems and technical milestones with light speed and precision

    Highly ambitious and action-driven; you thrive under pressure and find genuine energy in working at the edge of what is considered possible

    Capable of designing and building production-grade systems in a fourth of the time most experienced and “sane” professionals would consider possible

    What You Will Do

    Build high-performance consumer-facing search and discovery interfaces that serve as the primary surface for user interaction with the platform

    Build real-time social and communication interfaces that handle live state, persistent connections, presence, and concurrent user interactions under variable network conditions

    Build end-to-end transactional flows that guide users through complex multi-step sequences with clear state management, robust error handling, and seamless recovery

    Treat frontend performance as a first-class engineering discipline, owning bundle architecture, rendering strategy, lazy loading, and Core Web Vitals as measurable engineering metrics

    Build and own the full stack beneath the UI, including backend services, data access patterns, and API contracts between frontend and platform layers

    Work directly from design specifications to deliver polished user experiences, systematically closing the gap between design intent and final shipped product while identifying and resolving edge cases

    Minimum Qualifications

    MSc in Computer Science or Software Engineering or equivalent demonstrated production experience building consumer products at scale

    Expert-level React and Next.js; architectural understanding of the framework including rendering strategies, state management trade-offs, and framework internals

    Production proficiency in Go or Rust on the backend; writes systems code, not only UI code

    Demonstrated track record shipping consumer products used by real people at meaningful scale

    Demonstrated performance engineering on real consumer systems; you have measured, profiled, and improved load times and rendering with evidence, not estimates

    Preferred Qualifications

    Experience at a consumer product company recognized for shipping polished, high-scale user experiences - whether an early breakout startup or an established global platform

    Demonstrated performance engineering work on real production systems with measurable outcomes

    Ability to take a product from design to production at a pace that resets expectations for the team

    3–7 years of relevant experience

    What We Offer

    Expect the most talented, rigorous, and driven colleagues you have worked with; people who lift each other up and hold each other to the highest standard. This company is driven by ideas and innovation, regardless of age, position, or background. The best ideas must win and the people behind them recognized and rewarded.

    A home for exceptional people and geniuses within their domain; those who have always known what they are capable of and have been waiting for the environment to prove it to the world, whilst first being seen and supported by their coworkers.

    Compensation includes an attractive salary and meaningful equity ownership for an early-stage startup.

    Equal Opportunity

    We are an equal opportunity employer committed to building an inclusive, high-performance culture where everyone can do their best work and reach their full potential. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, disability, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law.
