About the company

Our client is a fast-growing software company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Join a small, early engineering group and take ownership of designing and delivering software features across the whole application.

• At least 12 months of full-time engineering experience at a well-known technology company or an established startup that has raised external capital.
• A track record of delivering production software, whether your strength leans toward user interfaces or server-side systems.
• Enjoyment in speaking with and supporting business customers.
• Comfort in a young, high-energy, early-stage team focused on building from zero to one.

Bonus points

• Prior experience as a founder or early engineer at a reputable startup.
• Experience delivering complete applications from concept to production.
• Familiarity with modern LLM systems, evaluation methods or frameworks.
• Experience with Python or TypeScript.
