Founding Engineer C# React AI - Start-up

Are you a technologist who enjoys building systems from scratch, looking for a new opportunity to get stuck into?

You could be progressing your career in a Founding Engineer role at a scaling tech start-up that is producing an AI enhanced smart workflow and orchestration platform for Private Equity firms.

As the Founding Engineer you'll take the MVP, built in C# with React frontend, hosted on AWS, through design and development phases into pilots and launch, bringing development in-house, iterating rapidly with design partners and shaping the product architecture for long-term scale.

You will take ownership of the technology roadmap and play a central role in building both the product and the engineering team around it. You will lead the hands-on development of the platform, shaping its architecture while building the first internal engineering capability and evolving the product from MVP to production platform.

You will also set engineering best practices, provide technical leadership aligned with strategic goals and collaborate closely with product and domain stakeholders to design, build and deliver scalable solutions.
