# Founding Engineer - Company: [Dataleap]() - Location: San Francisco - Team: Engineering - Employment type: Full Time - Salary: $120K – $250K - Posted: June 22, 2026 ## Job description **About Dataleap** We raised $3M from YC and angels like Aravind (CEO Perplexity) and Rahul Vohra (Superhuman) to build the agentic operating system for the enterprise. We have thousands of agents deployed across scale-up startups and Fortune 500 companies. We have PMF and are doubling revenue every month. And we have far more enterprise inbound than we can handle. **About the role** We need someone who operates at CTO-level. Someone who can take a vague problem, scope it, build it end-to-end, and ship something that actually provides value. Backend-heavy, AI-native, able to go full stack when needed. No hand-holding. No waiting for specs. You're a full-stack engineer, an AI engineer, and a product engineer in one person. Former founder is a strong plus. **What you'll do** * Own large parts of the product end-to-end, from user insight to production. * Build and improve our agentic systems. Make them more accurate, more reliable, more powerful. * Work at the frontier of AI engineering: context engineering, tool use, agent architectures. * Talk to users. Understand their pain. Scope features that actually solve problems. * Push AI-first development — Claude Code, coding agents, automation. You should be obsessed with scaling yourself. * Review code fast and maintain a high bar across the codebase. Our stack: Go backend, Vite/TypeScript frontend. **You're a fit if** * You're a razor-sharp engineer who solves hard problems fast with the code taste to review PRs at speed without dropping the bar. * You have deep product sense. You build for users, not for code's sake. * You love Go and care about clean, maintainable code. Backend-heavy, but not allergic to frontend. * You've built AI products, ideally agentic systems or AI coding tools. * You've built something from scratch: a startup, a side project, a feature that shipped. You thrive in ambiguity and don't need a PM to tell you what to build. AI research background or experience at an AI coding startup is a plus. But what matters most is that you're exceptional and hungry. **What you get** * Work alongside a brilliant design engineer who makes everything look and feel incredible. * A CTO and cofounder who will push you harder than anyone has before and make you grow faster than you thought possible. * Unlimited AI budget. We practice what we preach. * Generous equity and comp reflecting the outsized impact this role will have. * A seat at the table. This is a founding role, you'll shape the product and the company. We're building the platform that redefines how people work. If you want to build at the frontier, reach out. ## Apply [Apply on Dataleap]() Canonical job page:
