Founding Engineer
About the Role
This is a founding engineering role at a three-person, Y Combinator-backed startup building an AI-native financial research terminal focused on the healthcare sector. You will work directly alongside the founders, owning the infrastructure, tooling, and agentic systems that turn disparate data sources into a continuously updated, source-backed model of entire industries. This is a high-leverage, end-to-end role where your work will shape the product from day one.
What You'll Do
Work across the full stack, shipping frontend features, real-time systems, and backend infrastructure.
Build data pipelines and internal tools that allow analysts to add new sources and maintain sector coverage faster and more reliably.
Improve agentic parsing and extraction systems, making AI agents more capable and reliable.
Own work end to end: inspecting data, QA-ing builds, instrumenting, shipping, and fixing issues in production.
In your first days, onboard a new information source; in your first weeks, ship a measurable improvement to agentic system speed or reliability.
Within 30 days, build a company ontology and ship the first version of a core product feature.
