Role overview
As a Founding Engineer at Aglide, you will own critical features end-to-end, from customer discovery to shipping production code.

About Aglide
Software
Aglide’s browser automation platform combines an on-device browser agent and a browser extension to autonomously run web-based tasks inside our customers’ work applications. It’s used by renowned global enterprises - from decacorn financial services scale-ups to public insurance companies - to access, manage, and secure their most mission-critical work applications.
What you will do
- Develop a robust browser automation engine capable of handling complex tasks on messy sites while maintaining high reliability.
- Engineer a secure, on-device browser environment and distributed task system that runs asynchronously across macOS, Windows, and Linux.
- Build self-service workflow tools and end-to-end encrypted infrastructure to ensure non-technical users can securely automate any work application.
Who this is a fit for
- At least 1+ years of experience shipping production-grade software that real users depend on, rather than just prototypes or academic projects.
- Deep technical proficiency in TypeScript and the ability to debug complex browser-related systems using tools like Puppeteer, Selenium, or Electron.
- A strong desire for end-to-end ownership and direct customer contact, comfortable moving from the initial user call to final production deployment.
Why this role is remarkable
- True founding ownership where you will meet customers, diagnose issues, and ship fixes to production within days without approval chains.
- Join a YC S23 company with $3.5M+ in funding and years of runway, serving household-name fintechs and mission-critical enterprise workflows.
- Work at the cutting edge of browser internals and security, building a product that stops state-sponsored attackers from accessing sensitive corporate accounts.
