Helium is building Self-Improving Software: AI that automatically generates & tests new software experiences to lift revenue. We’re…

• Talent-dense (8 people, 6 engineers, 75% ex-founders)
• Well-funded ($6M from Google & Leaders from OpenAI)
• Fast-growing (Serving tens of millions of AI experiences per day for top consumer companies).

AI has created a once-in-history opportunity, and we’re here to win, because of that…

• 🔴 We work hard — In-Office Monday–Friday + often push through weekends 🔴

What You’ll Do

You’ll own big chunks of our AI Experience Generation product serving millions of users per day, including…

• Adding new features to the front-end Next.js application and deploying scalable Golang code that serves thousands of requests each second globally.
• Tune/Optimize/Load test our servers as we 10x our growth from tens of millions to hundreds of millions of users per day.
• Designing data systems and ML training infrastructure that power automated experimentation at scale.
• Work directly with founders and customers to design, implement, and deliver the best experiences!
• Wearing a lot more hats than listed above 👷.

What We’re Looking For

• Keen problem solving skills: you are able to cut down ambiguous problems down to first principles and deliver a working solution.
• Strong programming/full-stack foundation: You’re comfortable working on both backend code as well as frontend React code.
• Experience working directly on user-facing products: you are able to figure out and understand what the user needs, including talking to customers
• Stellar cross-functional communication skills: you are able to adapt to our ways of working and be an efficient/effective communicator.
• Owning features end to end: you’ll write your own PRDs/quick specs when necessary, and you test your features end to end to make sure they work and satisfy the requirements

Nice To Haves

• Experience with ML/AI/LLM integration in applications
• Experience building scalable backend systems with very demanding SLAs

• Previous experience founding or working at a high-growth startup

Reasons This Role Might Not Be A Fit

• You want to work 9-5
• You avoid Cursor or AI coding tools.
