About the role
About Us
Reforged Labs (YC W22) is building the AI-powered creative intelligence platform for mobile marketers and user acquisition teams. Backed by Y Combinator and DCM, our flagship product, Boa, analyzes ad creative performance across the market and helps teams understand what’s working, why it’s working, and what to create next. By integrating MMP data, market intelligence, and proprietary AI agents, Boa predicts and suggests ad creatives with higher hit rates.
In our latest case study with Supercell, 80% of Boa’s ads outperformed Supercell’s own control ads. Teams using Boa ideate, produce, and iterate on ad creatives 2–3x faster while improving ROAS. Our team brings backgrounds from Google, Microsoft, and Harvard.
Our team is building AI agents that transform creative strategy for major global game studios. Our systems handle multimodal understanding across text, image, and video, and deliver in production what traditional teams would prototype in a year. We are a small, senior team operating at the frontier of agentic AI.
The Opportunity
We are looking for a software engineer who can own significant parts of our AI systems end-to-end. You will work directly with product and enterprise customers to scope, build, and ship, not hand off tickets. This means writing production code, making architectural decisions within your domain, and taking full responsibility for the quality and reliability of what you ship.
The scope of your responsibilities will reflect your experience. Engineers with more years take on system-wide architecture decisions, lead technical design for major product areas, and raise the quality bar across the team. Engineers earlier in their careers focus on deep delivery within a domain and build toward that broader ownership over time. All engineers are expected to be comfortable across the full stack, backend in Go and frontend in Next.js, and to work fluently with AI-assisted development tooling.
