Raise humanity’s starting point with every act of work.
Humanity should not keep paying the cost of knowledge it has already created.
Autostep measures outcomes from human and AI work, identifies what companies should change, and helps make that change happen. We have real customer pull. We’re hiring two founding engineers to help turn that pull into exceptional, repeatable customer results.
You’ll work across machine learning, full-stack product, forward deployment, and desktop systems. This will be hard. You’ll work directly with mid-market and enterprise customers, ship constantly, and deal with requirements that are messy, incomplete, and sometimes wrong.
Your job is to put structure around that ambiguity, figure out what should actually be built, and ship it.
You have driven real outcomes through things you’ve built or shipped and can show us what changed because of your work.
Strong Python matters. Our current world includes Python, Jupyter notebooks, TypeScript, React/Next.js, AWS, Supabase/Postgres, Electron, Rust, Vercel, GitHub, and modern AI coding tools.
We care about applied ML, algorithms, evals, agents, LLMs, data systems, systems design, desktop software, UI/product taste, and enterprise infrastructure. You do not need every skill today. You need to learn unusually fast.
You can talk to customers, explain technical systems clearly, test assumptions, and question bad ones. When something goes wrong, you investigate, communicate clearly, and find a path forward.
Degrees are optional. Shipped work matters more.
Customers get better outcomes because of what you shipped.
They use it. They get exceptional results. They renew and expand.
Deployments and product quality improve. What you learn from one deployment makes the next deployment faster and better.
This is a high-ownership role from day one. We expect high ownership, speed, and measurable outcomes.

No applications, no recruiter spam. Just the intro.
A few questions to make sure this role is the right shape for you. Two minutes.
I write the intro, send it to the founder, and handle the back-and-forth.
If they’re a yes, I book the chat. You show up — that’s the whole job-hunt.
