Founding Engineer

London, hybrid

The mission

A London AI startup is building AI agents for some of the largest enterprises in a major traditional industry, automating high-value commercial workflows that are still largely manual today. The business already has strong revenue and enterprise customers, and it's hiring Founding Engineers who want to help build the company, not just join an engineering team.

What you'll do

• Work with enterprise customers to understand their problems, then turn them into working software fast
• Build and ship production code across the core platform, AI agents, integrations and customer-facing apps
• Own work end to end, from requirements and technical decisions through to testing, deployment and iteration
• Help decide what gets built and where the biggest opportunities are
• Split your time between building and working directly with customers

What they're looking for

• An exceptional engineer who thinks like a founder
• A strong Computer Science background (degree or equivalent)
• Excellent hands-on engineering and sound technical judgement
• A track record of shipping real software that you personally owned
• Strong product instincts, high agency and a bias to action
• Especially interesting: founding engineers, technical co-founders, and engineers who've built products from scratch or owned major products at startups
• AI/LLM or enterprise deployment experience is a plus, not a requirement
• Real ownership in a small team, working directly with the founders
• Commercial exposure to major enterprise customers
• A business with traction, at an early enough stage to shape it
• Competitive salary plus founding-level equity

Process

An intro call with Corellia Talent, then a short process with the founding team. I'll share full details on our first call.
