ABOUT THE ROLE
This is a founding-team internship at a pre-seed AI startup building an end-to-end automated headhunting platform. You will work directly alongside the CTO, owning full-stack features from ideation to production, and playing a meaningful role in shaping how top talent connects with growing companies.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Build and ship end-to-end features to production on a daily cadence.
- Collaborate closely with the CTO and founding team to own components from ideation through deployment.
- Develop and iterate on a fully agentic system to automate headhunting end-to-end.
- Engage directly with users to measure impact on hiring speed and candidate experience.
- Contribute to a fast, high-output, low-ego engineering culture with a strong ownership mindset.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- At least 6 months of professional or project-based experience building production features in TypeScript and React.
- Full-stack development focus with a demonstrated ability to ship end-to-end features; not primarily an ML engineer or heavily specialized in a single language such as Python or C++.
- Currently enrolled in or pursuing a degree in computer science, software engineering, or a related field.
- Production experience with Supabase, Prisma, and Typesense in a React/TypeScript stack.
- Portfolio or GitHub demonstrating full-stack projects and open-source contributions.
- Standout credentials: strong academic record, notable projects, or active open-source presence.
- Experience working in early-stage or entrepreneurial environments with rapid iteration and shipping cadence.
- Familiarity with Cursor as a development tool is a plus.
- Open to working on-site in San Francisco and willing to commit to a 6-day work week.
LOCATION
Hybrid, based in San Francisco, California. The team works from a collaborative hacker-house setup. Visa sponsorship is available.
