## Job description

## **Why Moonshot AI?**

Imagine websites that **rebuild themselves on autopilot** to sell more, convert better, and grow faster.  
At **Moonshot AI**, we’re making that happen — merging **generative AI, large-scale data pipelines, and experimentation** into a self-evolving web.

We’re a **well-funded, very early-stage startup** with a massive vision. Joining now means you’re not just an employee — you’re helping **set the technical and cultural DNA** of the company. If you’ve ever wanted the autonomy of a founder with the backing of top-tier investors, this is it.

## **What You’ll Build & Achieve**

As our Senior Fullstack Engineer, you’ll be **hands-on across the stack** — designing, building, and scaling systems that power our AI-driven platform. Expect autonomy, speed, and a ton of ownership.

* **Architect and build scalable systems** — from backend APIs to frontend dashboards — that process tens of millions of web events per day.
* **Design large-scale data infrastructure** that explains how websites are built, why they perform the way they do, and how to optimize them.
* **Train and integrate LLMs** into production to automatically hypothesize, generate, and validate website variants.
* **Shape engineering culture & practices** — your fingerprints will be all over our tech stack, architecture, and team processes.
* **Experiment, prototype, and iterate** — research + product + AI + scale, all at once.

This isn’t about maintaining yet another SaaS app — it’s about **building an AI engine that redefines how digital products are created.**

## **Who We’re Looking For**

* **A software craftsman** — you write clean, scalable code and know how to ship at speed.
* 5+ years fullstack experience (Python, JS, AWS preferred, but not a blocker).
* Experience leading teams or driving major projects.
* Background in CS, EE, Math, or equivalent hands-on mastery.
* An **AI enthusiast** who wants to build with LLMs and shape how they’re applied in the real world.

### **Bonus Points:**

* Startup experience (you thrive in zero-to-one).
* Experience training or deploying ML models in production.

## **At Moonshot, culture isn’t fluff — it’s how we win**

* **Curiosity & Growth** → We challenge assumptions, ask big questions, and push for mastery.
* **Low Ego** → No ivory towers — everyone gets their hands dirty.
* **Ownership** → You own outcomes, not just outputs. Shipping is step one; impact is the goal.
* **Trust** → Radical transparency and accountability, even when it’s hard.
* **Agility** → We move fast, test faster, and aren’t afraid to pivot.
* **This Is Your Company** → Ideas fuel breakthroughs. We’re all builders here.
* **Enjoy the Ride** → Startups are a rollercoaster — we create good vibes and celebrate wins together.

## **What We Offer**

* **Competitive compensation**
* **Meaningful equity** — real ownership in Moonshot AI’s success.
* **Full health coverage** (medical, dental, vision) for you + your family.
* **Unlimited PTO** — we trust you to take the time you need.
* **Tax free commuter and parking benefits**
* **Office-first culture (4 days/week)** — Midtown Manhattan, in the middle of it all.
* **Work directly with the founding team** — your impact is immediate, visible, and career-defining.
* **Free One Medical** Membership
* **401k**
