About Proliferate

Our mission is to automate software engineering in a way that makes engineering more human, not less.

Proliferate is the autonomous engineering organization- a workspace where coding agents, engineers, and operators build together, faster. Agents respond to events from Sentry, Linear, and GitHub in sandboxed environments that mirror your production infrastructure, then verify their own work before it ships.

We are in-person in SoMa, San Francisco. We're building a team of high-performers that want to do their life’s work and hold ourselves to that standard. We work hard but care deeply about personal health (company-expensed Whoop, significant health budget, top-of-line insurance).

We raised a $5.2M seed from investors like True Ventures, Twenty Two Ventures, Valkyrie Ventures, Pear VC, and Ritual Capital. Our investors include 50+ YC founders, including Paul Graham, and the founders of Dropbox, Supabase, Eight Sleep, Graphite, Resend, RocketMoney, and more.

About the Role

You'd be one of the first couple engineering hires, working directly with me (the founder) to build the core product. You'll have more ownership over product, culture, and technical direction than almost anywhere else.

Example projects:

• 2-week sprint to build a new product vertical from scratch.
• Design a new interface for engineering workflows that wasn't possible until a model advancement that came out last week.

Who we're looking for

We have a small, talent-dense flat org. We especially like people that represent our culture of relentless urgency, passion, and truth-seeking.

You might be a great fit if:

• You have experience shipping products from 0 to n
• You are looking for a role that will be very dense in experience
• You have never quite been satisfied with the passion or caliber of your teammates
• You care deeply- about the people you work with, what you spend your life doing, and the impact of your work
