About Imagine AI

Our mission is to model B2B growth and build products that accelerate it.

Imagine AI is a research and software company modeling modern B2B growth, starting with LinkedIn. We're moving beyond being an AI content tool. Content was always just the medium. What we sell is the warm connections and trust between a company and its future buyers, because B2B growth comes down to people trusting people. We see the hidden structure underneath that growth, and we're building the infrastructure to map, measure, and engineer those relationships at scale (network graphs, homophily, and attribution).

We serve over 30 high growth B2B companies from Series A to IPO’d, including MongoDB, Rippling, and Corgi Insurance. We started in June 2025 and launched out of Y Combinator’s F25 cohort. Our co-founders are Sky and Neo.

Tech stack

Nextjs, Typescript, Supabase (Postgres), Neo4j, Stripe, trigger.dev, Apify, Mastra, Vercel, Git

Our stack is intentionally scrappy: scheduled trigger.dev jobs that scrape, clean, and transform in-run, serving a Next.js product. It works at our scale. You will evolve it as we grow.

What your day will look like

You will be one of our first few hires at Imagine AI, which means you will have a huge responsibility and impact in our business.

You will own the surfaces that turn a signup into an activated, expanding account. Concretely: the integrations our customers ask for by name (Slack, MCP, X/Twitter, CRM), onboarding, and self-serve billing and seat upgrades. These are the things slowing us down from explosive growth and you will help us unblock that.

The other half of the job is the data our customers see. You will build the metrics and insights in the product, and instrument the thing that makes us hard to compete with: connecting engagement to named accounts to real CRM outcomes. You will make sure the data we collect becomes our defensible power in two years.

You will join customer calls, talk to them directly, and translate what you learn into what ships next. If you are excited about owning a feature from a customer conversation all the way to the revenue curve, come work with us!

Hard requirements

  • 3+ years of experience
  • You must have shipped third-party integrations in production and dealt with the real parts: OAuth, webhooks, rate limits, and partial failure
  • You must have owned a feature end to end in a modern web stack (Nextjs or similar), from schema to UI
  • You must be proficient in TypeScript and SQL
  • You must have built product surfaces that display data to customers, and be comfortable modeling the data behind them

Soft requirements

  • You must love talking to customers and translating their feedback to product updates
  • You must write clean and maintainable code
  • You must have taste for which metrics matter and judgment for right-sized architecture: you build on our existing stack and change it incrementally when there is real blocker
  • Bonus if you have shipped billing or subscription flows (Stripe), or worked with a graph database
