/' What I want to build next.
Early engineering roles at AI-native startups, remote. Founding engineer, second hire, MTS. I want a role where one person still owns whole systems: a real product with real users, a hard, ambiguous problem, and a quality bar that doesn’t move. My best work happens in the mess. Ambiguity, AI-generated chaos, a half-built prototype that has to become something you can ship.
I use agents to accelerate implementation; I own the architecture, review, verification, and delivery. If you’re hiring an early engineer who can move at AI speed without handing over judgment, get in touch.
