350K Engineer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Location: New York, NY

On-site | Full-time

Compensation: $150K - $350K

Our client is a high-growth, venture-backed startup on a mission to reinvent technical interviewing and transform the global $600B+ staffing industry. By moving beyond traditional "LeetCode" style evaluations, our client has developed a fundamentally better way for companies to identify talent, combat fraud, and market top-tier candidates to Fortune 500 organizations.

The organization is currently at an ideal inflection point: they have moved past product-market fit and are entering a rapid scaling phase. Backed by a $3.1M seed round from premier investors-including GSV Ventures, BoxGroup, and angels from OpenAI, SpaceX, and Retool-the company has already surpassed seven figures in revenue. Their customer base includes dozens of enterprise staffing firms, including the largest staffing firm in the world.

Our client is seeking a Founding Engineer to join a talent-dense team of seven hailing from institutions and companies such as Stanford, Penn, Waterloo, Retool, and MongoDB. This is a high-impact role for a builder who wants to own critical systems and define the technical standards for an entire industry.

Key Responsibilities

• Innovation in Evaluation: Define and build the new standard for technical interviewing, creating systems that retire outdated evaluation methods and provide high-fidelity talent assessments.
• AI Implementation: Utilize AI and machine learning to detect fraud, identify complex patterns in candidate performance, and significantly accelerate the hiring lifecycle.
• System Architecture: Design, develop, and maintain critical full-stack systems from the ground up, ensuring high performance and scalability.
• End-to-End Ownership: Manage features and systems through the entire lifecycle-from initial concept and architectural design to deployment and monitoring.
• Strategic Input: As one of the first engineering hires, play a key role in shaping the technical roadmap and making fundamental architecture decisions.

Requirements

• Technical Proficiency: 4+ years of experience in modern full-stack development. Advanced proficiency in React, Node.js, and Python (or similar frameworks) is expected.
• Infrastructure Knowledge: Experience managing cloud-native infrastructure within AWS, GCP, or Azure.
• Startup Mindset: Demonstrated ability to thrive in a fast-moving, high-performance startup environment where ambiguity is common.
• Coding Fundamentals: Highly technical with a strong bias toward code quality, security, and performance.
• Founding Mentality: A desire to solve problems end-to-end and a willingness to take radical ownership over outcomes rather than just tickets.

• Location: Ability to work on-site five days a week in the New York City office to foster high-bandwidth collaboration.
• Sponsorship and relocation: Our client is open to candidates who will relocate and will consider visa sponsorship.

Benefits

• Build the Future: Join at the ground floor and play a pivotal role in shaping both the product and the company culture while solving complex, industry-wide problems.
• Competitive Pay & Equity: Competitive compensation packages including significant equity ownership to ensure early hires benefit from the company's growth.
• Comprehensive Health Insurance: Health insurance coverage provided for both the employee and their dependents.
• Financial Wellness: A 401(k) plan is provided to help the team invest in their long-term financial future.
• Onsite Benefits: Work from a Midtown Manhattan office with daily team lunches, dinners, and a fully stocked selection of snacks and beverages.
• Quarterly Offsites: Opportunities to travel together every quarter to bond, brainstorm, and recharge as a team.
• Early Impact: Join at a critical inflection point-past product-market fit, but before scaling takes over.
