Founding AI Engineer

3 months ago


San Francisco, United States 1st10 Full time

1st10 is a boutique recruiting firm that builds early engineering teams. Our team formerly built early Robinhood, Pinterest, Airbnb, Stripe and many more.


About our client

  • Dev shop for applied AI. The team solve hard AI-driven problems that their customers don't have the resources or know-how to staff themselves – cutting through jargon and flashy demos to get AI into production, fast.
  • Impressive seed round from top investors
  • Revenue generating, active customers
  • 6-person engineering team
  • Based in SF, engineering-centric office culture


About the role

Joining as one of the team's first engineers and play a leading role in building and shipping AI applications for inaugural customers - from understanding customer needs to deploying solutions in their environments - all while shaping the Engineering and Company culture for the next 100+ engineers.


What you bring to the table:

  • You write exceptional code + deeply care about the craft of coding: you build elegant, production-ready code; you have strong proficiency across multiple programming languages
  • You are excited about AI: you are AI-curious, follow along with new launches, and experiment with new frameworks (like LangChain); to be clear, this is a generalist full-stack engineering role in the context of developing AI-driven applications
  • You love solving hard, new problems: you are comfortable self-teaching, asking “why?,” and experimenting to solve problems you haven’t seen before
  • You are ‘start-up ready’: you jump in without instruction, embrace a ‘no job too big, no job too small’ mindset, and want to shape strategy and culture
  • You are comfortable talking with users: you deeply care about the user and skillfully navigate user conversations to ensure what we’re building meets their needs
  • You are a great teammate: you are comfortable helping others (and asking for help), you champion integrity in everything, and want to build a one-in-a-career culture of personal growth


You will:

  • Design and develop custom AI solutions tailored to the unique needs of our customers, ensuring seamless integration and scalability
  • Partner with a high-caliber team across the full project lifestyle, from requirements gathering, to prototyping, system design, coding, testing, deployment, and support
  • Actively shape our Engineering and broader company culture - from how we learn, to how we hire, to how we celebrate - you’ll shape how we make our team a place we all love working
