Software Engineer

Founding Software Engineer - AI Auto Pilot Start-Up - $250k + Equity - React, Go, AWS

Who We Are

We're building the AI platform for IT teams, aiming to challenge legacy players like ServiceNow, a $230+ billion company. Our platform enables AI agents to resolve IT issues instead of humans, revolutionizing IT automation.

We're looking for passionate, talented & dedicated Founding Software Engineers who want to build something incredible, ground the ground up.

We “automate the automation,” using a natural language-to-code workflow builder and AI agents that discover and implement automations for tedious IT workflows.

Our mission is to free IT departments from the #helpdesk channel by providing the simplest way to automate employee onboarding/offboarding, software access management, and the long tail of employee requests. In the long run, our vision is to create a universal workflow automation platform for all business functions.

The company was founded by product and engineering leaders from Verkada and is backed by industry-leading investors like First Round, General Catalyst, Alt Capital, and Box Group.
