About us
We are building the core infrastructure for AI agents, enabling them to access tools of the modern world — APIs, workflows and even other AI agents — and to know how to use them securely, safely and efficiently.
Backed by top-tier investors and led by repeat founders, we're a hands-on team building in the open and moving fast with a clear vision to establish a major platform for the future of software and work.
We're not just an AI company, but an AI-native company.
We're building a focused and highly-productive team, in which everyone is amplified with AI, and where everyone shares personal and financial ownership in our mission.
You will be working on shaping the future of software in a team that is built for the agentic AI era.
Your Role
We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer for our core product. Your main responsibilities include:
1. Designing and implementing robust, scalable APIs and backend services from the ground up.
2. Developing core platform features such as authentication, authorization, and role/permissions management, integrating tightly with our Agentic API layer that powers open-source AI workflows.
3. Collaborating closely with the CTO and leadership team to shape the architecture and long-term technical strategy of our AI-native platform.
4. Leading backend development initiatives, making key technical decisions and driving delivery of high-impact features.
5. Taking ownership of system performance, reliability, and maintainability, ensuring our backend can scale with the business.
6. Staying close to emerging AI technologies and helping assess how they can be incorporated into our stack.
7. Contributing across the full stack where needed.
Please note: We work in-office 4 days per week (Mon-Thurs) at our Dublin HQ - we find this supports fast iteration and close collaboration at our stage.
What We're Looking For
We're seeking an individual who:
1. Has 7+ years experience building production software, with a strong emphasis on backend development.
2. Has deep experience designing and scaling RESTful APIs; including authentication, authorization, rate-limiting, and versioning.
3. Is highly proficient in Python, with FastAPI experience preferred.
4. Understands distributed system design, service-oriented architecture, and how to scale services in cloud environments (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure).
5. Has worked with databases at scale (both relational and NoSQL), caching systems, and async task queues.
6. Builds with performance, maintainability, and observability in mind (metrics, logs, tracing).
7. Energised by building in a dynamic, fast-evolving space, and takes initiative without waiting to be asked.
8. Has a track record of building complex systems from scratch or modernizing legacy ones.
9. Is curious about AI and wants to help figure out how it intersects with software architecture.
10. Brings entrepreneurial energy: whether through startups, open source, or solo projects, you've built things under your own steam.
11. Is excited by the chance to work at an ambitious Irish startup solving hard problems in AI.
