We're an early-stage AI-powered talent acquisition startup on a mission to replace the traditional job application process with smart, direct introductions between candidates and hiring teams. Our platform acts as a personalized AI talent agent — understanding candidate preferences through natural conversation and connecting them directly with the right opportunities at startups.

Leverage AI coding tools to move fast and maintain high code quality.
Help establish frontend best practices, tooling, and processes as an early founding team member.
Contribute meaningfully to product decisions — your voice shapes what we build and how.
Work in a fast-paced, iterative environment where your work directly impacts thousands of users.
What We're Looking For
Required:
3–5 years of frontend development experience, with a strong focus on consumer/B2C products.
At least 2 years of experience at a B2C company — you understand what great consumer UX feels like.
