Senior Full-Stack Engineer - AI Manufacturing Platform

Help build the platform that automates quoting for manufacturing companies, connecting to email, understanding customer requests, pricing items, and generating quotes end-to-end. You’ll join as one of the first engineers, with real ownership across backend architecture, frontend UX, and customer-facing delivery.

Why this role

• Huge market to conquer: 10,000+ US fastener manufacturers alone spend $100k+ on quoting solutions, this product is set to disrupt a much wider manufacturing segment.
• High ownership & impact: Ship production software, talk to users, and see your work go live fast.
• Serious backing: Seeded with ~$3M from top-tier investors (incl. YC and leading funds) plus angels from frontier AI labs.

What you’ll do

• Own end-to-end product engineering: data models, APIs, services, and polished UI.
• Design resilient backend architecture and build intuitive frontend interfaces.
• Engage directly with customers to translate workflows into product features.
• Take production responsibility—debug incidents, improve reliability, and raise the quality bar.
• Collaborate tightly with founders and go-to-market to prioritise what moves the needle.

What you’ll bring

• Proven experience shipping full-stack, production SaaS in a fast-paced startup or scale-up.
• Strength across backend + frontend (language/framework agnostic; examples might include TypeScript/Node, Python/Go, React, SQL/NoSQL, and a major cloud)
• Solid grounding in systems design, testing/CI/CD, observability, and security best practice.
• Comfortable speaking with customers, mapping messy workflows, and iterating quickly.
• Calm under pressure; you take ownership from problem to production.

Nice to have : experience with quoting/pricing engines, ERP/EMS integrations, email processing, or manufacturing workflows; interest in applied AI.

The setup

• Team: small, high-trust, high-tempo.
• Location: Onsite, San Francisco.
• Package: competitive salary + meaningful equity/options.
