Job description:

We are Nozomio. We raised a $6.2M seed led by CRV, backed by BoxGroup, LocalGlobe, Y Combinator, Paul Graham, Gokul Rajaram, the CTO of Spotify, the founders of Tinder and Hinge, the CPO of LinkedIn, Suno, and others. We are a lean team building a product lab that solves context in AI across different domains. Our first two products are Folk ([getfolk.app](http://getfolk.app)), an AI agent that lives in your life, and Nia ([trynia.ai](http://trynia.ai)). We are in San Francisco, in person, every day.

**THE CONTEXT**

The problem we are working on is one of the hardest open problems in AI: context. Every AI product today is stateless, forgetful, and generic. We think that is the wrong model. The products that win the next decade will know who you are, what you care about, and what you need before you ask. We are building the infrastructure and the consumer experiences to make that real, across multiple domains.

We are looking for one person to join as a founding member of technical staff. You will work directly alongside the founder. There is no onboarding program, no ticket queue, no six-week ramp. You will be writing code on day one and owning systems by week two.

This is a full-stack role, which means you will touch everything: product surfaces, backend services, AI integrations, infrastructure, and occasionally the mobile layer. We build in TypeScript and Python. Our stack includes MongoDB, Convex, Daytona, OpenRouter, Google Cloud, Vercel, PostHog, and Sentry. If mobile becomes the right call for a feature, Swift is on the table.

We work six to seven days a week at the office. One of those days is social time: we go out (we really love karaoke, kbbq, etc.), we decompress, we are humans. The rest of the time we are building. **If you don’t work everyday, you are going to lose.**

**WHAT YOU WILL OWN**

You will own product features end to end, from the data model through the API through the UI, with no hand-offs in between. You will design and build AI pipelines that use context in ways that feel genuinely new. You will instrument, monitor, and debug production systems under real load. You will make architecture decisions that will matter for years. You will be in the room when we decide what to build next, and your opinion will carry weight.

**WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR**

We care about art. Engineering is a pure form of art. A great engineer with two years of experience beats a coasting engineer with eight.

What we are actually looking for:

* **_The most important:_** You've shipped something real or have made money in the past (doesn’t matter if it’s unrelated to engineering). Show us.
* You are unusually good at something. Maybe it's building automation tools for your family, reselling sneakers, selling Pokémon Go cards, or making music.
* You think from first principles.
* You're EXTREMELY funny.
* You write code that someone else would be proud to read.
* You have high agency.
* Optional: ex founder / operator / failed a company before
