About The Role

Founding Software Engineer

Company Our Client (YC F24) builds deployment infrastructure that lets B2B SaaS & AI companies ship mission-critical software directly into customer clouds (AWS/GCP/Azure) or on-prem — in minutes, not months. Secure BYOC (Bring Your Own Cloud) with sanitized telemetry, control-plane orchestration, reliable updates, and observability built for data-sovereign industries like healthcare, finance, manufacturing, and defense-adjacent verticals.

The Role Founding Software Engineer (full-time, in-person NYC) $160K–$220K base + 0.5–2% equity

Join as an early engineer (~#3) on a tiny, high-velocity team with founders from Palantir, Vercel, Capital One. Own end-to-end: design & ship distributed systems orchestrating deployments across hundreds of heterogeneous customer environments. Build from first principles — we're creating new tooling, not configuring existing stacks.

What You'll Own

  • Core orchestration: reliable agents/controllers in customer K8s clusters for installs, updates, rollbacks, config sync
  • Secure telemetry pipelines: sanitized logs/metrics/alerts back to the control plane without exposing customer data
  • Control plane services + APIs: multi-tenant reliability, performance scaling, zero-downtime across clouds
  • Production hardening: debug chaos in real enterprise envs (compliance, security, air-gaps)
  • Shape architecture, roadmap, and engineering culture — direct founder access
