AI Summary
This remote role offers an opportunity to join an AI startup supported by Antler and Nvidia as a founding engineer. You'll have end-to-end ownership, working closely with the founder to scale a product for educators and universities. Core responsibilities include building scalable PDF and image processors, integrating with LMS platforms, and setting up CI/CD pipelines. The position offers equity from Day 1, with salary added post-funding, and a performance-based bonus.
Key qualifications include 2+ years with PHP/Laravel, MySQL, Linux/Apache, and Vue or React. Experience with CI/CD pipelines, multi-agent systems, and vector databases is essential. The hiring process involves an intro call, an async build challenge, and a final call with the founder, with offers made within 10–14 days.
About The Company
Our client is a company building the go-to AI copilot for educators, universities, and international schools, supported by Antler and Nvidia - currently post-MVP, early stage, and revenue-generating. If you love working on real AI projects, shipping fast, scaling, and sweating the details, please apply.
The Role
As the founding engineer, you'll help define the architecture, ship critical features, and set the technical bar. You’ll have end-to-end ownership and work closely with the founder to scale a product that's already solving a real pain point.
You will:
▪️Build scalable PDF & Image processors for high-volume grading queues
▪️Integrate with LMS platforms (Canvas, Moodle, Google Classroom) and SSO (OAuth, SAML)
▪️Build and own a multi-agent AI stack (CrewAI, LangGraph, or custom)
▪️Set up CI/CD pipelines, containerization, and environment orchestration with instant rollbacks
▪️Implement workflows for grading, student coaching, and academic integrity
▪️Build retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines with vector stores and inline citations
Why This Role
This is a rare chance to help build an AI startup supported by Antler and Nvidia from the inside — with real equity, autonomy, and a direct path to technical leadership.
▪️ Ownership: You won’t be a cog in the machine — you’ll own systems end-to-end, shape architecture, and ship product that defines the company.
▪️ Equity with Real Upside: Supported by Antler and NVIDIA Inception, we’re early stage, revenue-generating and with unlimited upsides. You’ll hold meaningful equity at an early stage, before valuation multiples kick in.
▪️ Creative Freedom: We care about results, not micromanagement. You’ll have space to explore, build, and improve with minimal overhead.
▪️ Remote and Flexible: We’re async-friendly, remote-first, and trust you to manage your time.
▪️ Fast-Moving, Collaborative Culture: Work closely with the founder, contribute directly to strategy, and be part of a small, high-agency team that actually enjoys building together.
If you're looking to grow fast, take real ownership, and help build something from zero to scale — this is that role.
What Success Looks Like
▪️You ship fast: full features, fully tested, delivered in days
▪️You own the stack: from backend to frontend to deployment
▪️Your systems run smoothly: 99.9% uptime, sub-2s p95 latency
▪️You deploy safely: every PR is tested and rollback-ready
▪️Your builds are observable: dashboards track performance, usage, and costs
What You Bring
▪️ 2+ years with PHP/Laravel, MySQL, Linux/Apache, and Vue or React - our app is built in PHP so ideally you are able to build end to end with it, but if you can quickly rebuild it in a better language and bring it to completion within a short period of time, that is also an option.
▪️ A focus on performance — you profile, cache, and test
▪️ Shipped CI/CD pipelines with observability and rollback
▪️ Experience building or orchestrating multi-agent systems
▪️ Familiarity with vector DBs (Pinecone, Qdrant, Supabase Vector)
▪️ Something real you’ve built and shipped to users
Hiring Process
▪️ Intro Call (30 min)
▪️ Async Build Challenge — focused, multi-agent RAG task, testing frontend + backend skills to build a full complete end to end MVP
▪️ Final Call (45 min) — live pairing with the founder
▪️ Offer within 10–14 days
What You Get
▪️ Founding Engineer with equity from Day 1
▪️ Equity-first compensation, salary added post-funding
▪️ Performance-based bonus tied to quality, speed, and uptime
▪️ Fully remote, async-native work culture
▪️ Access to the full AI stack — GPT-4, Claude, Railway, GPUs
▪️ Direct path to engineering leadership as CTO of Antler and NVIDIA supported AI company
