SoftwareSan Francisco, United StatesSeed

We are building a trust layer for enterprise - so companies can handle risk in real time, not 6 months in retrospect; we are a team of Meta and 11x; tackling a $50B market. 

We have lots of commercial traction, super clear roadmap, and are hiring two founding engineers to help us build the product and reach commercial goals.

What you will do

  • Develop and scale the backbone of Bead AI's core audit product, scoping, building, and launching key features.
  • Set the foundational architecture for a fault-tolerant platform capable of executing resource-intensive workflows on sensitive data.
  • Contribute significantly to the product roadmap, balancing customer feedback with long-term product health and vision.

Who this is a fit for

  • Has designed, built, and scaled robust systems, with a preference for AWS experience.
  • Possesses a strong drive to move quickly, own problems end-to-end, and iterate with limited guidance.
  • Comfortable working client-facing when necessary and balancing pragmatism with rigor in technical decisions.

Why this role is remarkable

  • Opportunity to build the backbone of a core AI audit product from the ground up, replacing manual processing of vast unstructured data.
  • Join a fast-growing, VC-backed AI startup at an early stage, offering significant influence on product direction and company culture.
  • High agency role with end-to-end ownership, ideal for future founders seeking deep impact and potential relocation to SF with visa support.
