Requirements

What We’re Looking For

• 8–12+ years of experience building and shipping real production software.
• Strong experience owning systems used by real users, including production incidents, scale, reliability, and long-term maintainability.
• AI is central to how you work: you use tools like Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, or similar AI coding tools daily.
• You know how to use AI agents to multiply your output, while maintaining control over quality, security, and architecture.
• Deep software engineering fundamentals across architecture, debugging, system design, and code quality.
• Strong security instincts and the ability to identify where AI-generated code can introduce risk.
• Excellent judgment around where AI tools excel, where they hallucinate, and where human expertise is required.
• A strong ownership mindset: you run toward responsibility, ambiguity, and hard technical problems.
• Startup, 0→1, founder, first-engineer, or early-stage product experience.

Bonus Points

• You’ve been a founder, first engineer, or early technical leader.
• You’ve worked on enterprise, security, compliance, infrastructure, or mission-critical systems.
• You’ve built products involving AI agents, developer tools, AI infrastructure, governance, or automation.
• You’ve designed or managed agentic coding workflows at scale.
• You have a strong public body of work: open-source projects, technical writing, demos, talks, or content around AI-native development.

Why Join Us

• Real impact: You’ll be one of the people defining the product from the ground up.
• High ownership: You’ll own meaningful technical decisions and major parts of the system.
• Founder-level exposure: You’ll work directly with the founders on product, architecture, and strategy.
• Frontier work: You’ll build in one of the most important and fast-moving categories in tech.
• AI-native environment: You’ll work with a team that uses modern AI tooling deeply, not superficially.
• Meaningful upside: Significant ownership and autonomy for the right person.

As part of the onboarding process, each new hire is required to complete a Know Your Customer (KYC) verification, sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA), execute an employment contract, and fulfill any additional legal requirements specific to your jurisdiction. This process ensures compliance, protects company information, and establishes a secure and professional employment relationship.
2. Employment Structure:
1. The position is offered on either an employee or contractor basis, depending on the location and role. Individuals will receive payment via direct deposit on a monthly basis. Additional details regarding compensation, benefits, and company policies will be provided during onboarding and outlined in the official employment agreement.
3. Compensation:
1. Salaries are paid in fiat currency via direct deposit on a monthly schedule, with payments issued on the first business day of each month. This structure ensures timely and transparent compensation aligned with local financial systems.
4. Probationary Period:
1. All new employees will undergo a 90-day probationary period, which serves as a mutual evaluation phase. During this time, both the employee and ChainGPT can assess fit, performance, and long-term alignment with the role and company.
