About us
We're building an AI-native platform that helps marketing and creative teams at top e-commerce brands understand which ads are working and ship more winning creative across the major ad platforms.
We're a Series B remote-first team. We've been growing 2.5x year over year, led by second-time founders (currently just under 100 headcount). AI isn't a feature here: it's the foundation of our product and of how we build.
How we work
We ship fast and own what we ship: small teams with full ownership, releasing more than once a day. Our development is AI first: we build AI agents into the product, and our engineers work the same way, directing AI coding tools through much of the output while owning everything that ships.
This role sits on our platform team: designing, building, and maintaining the backend APIs and services the rest of engineering builds on, as our AI workflow platform scales to many times its current surface. Sample projects include building a unified API for our insights data and storing metrics from our data providers at scale. The stack is Node.js, TypeScript, GraphQL, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB, with React on the frontend.
