Attune is building developer tools for a post-AI world.
Our first product is faster build tools that require zero migration effort. AI is enabling engineers to write code faster than ever. The next bottleneck will be all the other tooling between code and deployment.
We’re looking for a Founding Software Engineer to help us build the future of software development: someone with the taste to see how the future of software development should look, and the autonomy and pragmatism to build that future.
Attune makes blazingly fast build tools that require zero migration effort.
As AI enables developers to write code faster than ever, slow builds are increasingly becoming the bottleneck in development velocity. Developers regularly lose hours of productivity every day waiting for their builds. Imagine being able to write code in 1 minute, but needing to wait 30 minutes to compile, deploy, and test it.
Existing solutions either require painful migrations to new tools (e.g. Bazel) or rely on just using bigger servers to run your builds. Instead, we do native, first-class integrations into compilers and build systems.
With Attune, you don't need to integrate a new tool. Just make a one-line change from cargo build to hurry cargo build for 20x faster builds.
Eliza (ex-Google) and Xin worked together for 3 years at FOSSA, where Eliza was Head of Engineering and Xin was Head of Product. Eliza brings a decade of programming languages and build systems expertise, while Xin brings a decade of experience building developer tools products, most recently as VP of Product at Teleport (S15). Having experienced the pain of slow builds firsthand across hundreds of production codebases, we're building the solution we've always wanted.

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.
