Job Description

**About the Company**

Our client is a fast-growing startup that helps software companies close more deals by automating data migration. Its computer-use and browser-use agents sign into whatever system of record a customer is moving away from, extract and clean that data, and load it into the new platform --- collapsing what was once weeks of manual effort into a near one-click, end-to-end migration. Software vendors fold this into their post-sales process, eliminating the biggest reason their deals stall: prospects who won't switch because moving their data is too painful.

The company is scaling quickly. It closed a $15M Series A roughly six weeks ago (total raised to date; the round is otherwise unannounced), has grown ARR nearly 4x since the start of the year, has around 60 active deals in progress, and books 80--100 new meetings each month. Net revenue retention sits near 190% --- once customers clear an initial trust threshold, they hand over their entire migration and post-sales data function. The initial focus is vertical SaaS (software built for fitness studios, dental practices, property managers, and similar), with a long-term addressable market spanning any software company that has a competitor.

The company's mission is to "make the internet liquid": if you pay for software, you should be able to take your data and move to a better product whenever you choose. The team is intentionally small, senior, and high-caliber. The founder/CEO spent nearly a decade as a CTO before launching the company. Headquarters is in Union Square, NYC, on-site five days a week.

**About the Role**

We're looking for product-minded, full-stack engineers who take problems from start to finish --- frontend, backend, infrastructure, performance, and security. The company describes its engineering org as a "founders-in-training" program: you're expected to spend time with customers, develop a point of view on where the product should head, argue it out with the team, and then ship it. Having recently re-architected its platform to support much larger data-movement workloads, the company has opened up new product surface and a deep backlog of hard problems in durability, security, workflow, and large-scale data to take on.

**Key Responsibilities**

* Own features from end to end across frontend, backend, infrastructure, performance, and security.
* Work directly with customers, spot where the product needs to go, and feed that back into the roadmap.
* Build on the new architecture to enable large-scale, dependable data movement.
* Lean into AI heavily and agentically --- while owning and standing behind everything you ship.

**Requirements**

* 4--5+ years of software engineering experience (most hires land closer to 6--8 years); strong, less-experienced candidates will be considered if they ramp exceptionally fast.
* Truly full-stack --- able to carry a product slice from frontend through backend and infrastructure independently.
* Proficiency with the stack, or the ability to ramp quickly: React, Tailwind, TypeScript (frontend); Remix/TypeScript (backend); AWS, Cloudflare.
* A track record of shipping production software end-to-end and owning the result.

**Nice-to-Haves**

* Experience with large-scale data movement, migration, or systems-of-record integrations.
* Comfort operating in an AI-/agent-heavy engineering workflow.

**Logistics**

Location --- New York City, on-site at the Union Square office five days a week. No exceptions.

Compensation --- $150K--$215K + meaningful equity (everyone on the team is an owner).

Openings --- 4+.

Benefits --- Generous health insurance.

**Interview Process**

1. A short background conversation with the CEO.
2. A roughly one-hour take-home assessment (capture-the-flag style) in preparation for the systems interview.
3. A 60-minute systems design / architecture review with the CEO and a team member.
4. On-site --- ideally a 2--3 day paid work trial shipping alongside the team (flexible depending on the candidate).
