ExecutiveFounder

Location: Los Angeles (in-office, 5 days/week)

Compensation: $225K–$300K base + equity

We’re deploying AI-powered robots that are transforming how businesses acquire and serve customers. Our robots drive 5x sales increases and 10x reductions in customer acquisition costs. The model works — now we need a founding engineer to build the systems that let us scale from dozens to hundreds of deployments monthly.

This isn’t about building features. It’s about creating the technical backbone for an entirely new way businesses grow. Think of joining Microsoft in 1985 to help businesses adopt PCs — except this time it’s humanoids redefining how companies acquire labor.

As our Founding Engineer, you’ll architect, build, and ship the software + systems that power real-world robot deployments across retail, hospitality, and live events. You’ll work directly with the founders, sales, and deployment teams to turn pilots into chain-wide rollouts. Every line of code you ship directly translates into millions in ARR and into businesses transforming their customer experience.

This is a ground-floor role with direct ownership over the product and technology stack. You won’t just build — you’ll set the culture, playbooks, and standards for the engineering team we hire around you.
