About the Role

This role is with one of Dex's trusted partner companies that builds AI agents to automate strategic decisions in manufacturing operations. These agents sit on top of existing ERPs, handling procurement, inventory, and daily operational calls. The company is backed by leading VCs and prominent founders and is growing rapidly.

As a Founding Full-Stack Engineer, you will be the architect of this decision intelligence, owning the algorithms, architecture, and underlying infrastructure. You will work directly with customers, shipping entire features end-to-end. This is a backend and infrastructure-heavy role with enough frontend to deliver complete solutions, building foundational systems for a rapidly scaling team.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and implement the core algorithms and architecture for AI agents making strategic operational decisions.
  • Build and own end-to-end features, from backend infrastructure to customer-facing interfaces, without product manager abstraction.
  • Develop scalable, interpretable, data-driven agents across the full stack: algorithms, architecture, and infrastructure.
  • Work directly with manufacturing customers to understand their needs and deploy solutions.
  • Lay the foundational systems and infrastructure that will support a rapidly growing engineering team.

Requirements & Tech Stack

  • Shipped production code end-to-end.
  • Strong background in backend and infrastructure.
  • Comfortable building frontend features.
  • Experience building data-intensive, multi-tenant production systems using Postgres, Redis, and an orchestration framework.
  • Strong product sense.
  • Eager to engage directly with customers daily.
  • Willingness to work onsite in San Francisco on a demanding schedule.

Qualifications

  • Within roughly five years of graduating university, ready to take on foundational engineering challenges.
  • Relocation and visa support are available.
