Principal Software Engineer

### Description

Great zero-to-one builders are becoming more careful about where to spend their next years.

AI is opening a rare company-creation window, with unusual room for new ventures to emerge fast. But that does not make great opportunities easier to find. And it definitely does not make great products easier to build.

Once you’ve done real zero-to-one work, you know the risk is not just failure. It is spending your next years on something that was never real enough to deserve them.

We are an AI-first venture studio built to win this moment through systematic exploration, ruthless validation, and fast cross-functional building.

Over the last few years, we've launched products including an AI report-writing platform for psychologists, an AI troubleshooting platform for manufacturers, and AI-powered workflow tools for operators in complex industries. Over the next several years, we plan to launch more than a dozen new AI-native ventures.

And of course, real upside when the winners emerge, including meaningful equity participation across every venture the studio builds.

This role is designed for engineers who have already led major technical initiatives, shaped engineering strategy, and demonstrated exceptional judgment in ambiguous zero-to-one environments.

This is not a role for someone who wants a clean lane, a polished ba...
