Emergent builds autonomous coding agents that replace traditional software development by generating, testing, and deploying production applications directly from plain-language intent. Our systems run in production at global scale and are used to build millions of real applications.
Since public launch, Emergent has reached $100M ARR in 8 months. 6M+ users across 190+ countries have built 6.5M+ applications on Emergent. We've raised $100M+ , backed by Khosla Ventures, SoftBank, Google, Lightspeed, Prosus, Together, and Y Combinator.
We're solving the hard part of AI-driven software creation: correctness, reliability, security, and scale in real production systems. The team is built by repeat founders, Olympiad medalists, and leaders from Google, Amazon, and Dropbox.
We're hiring builders who want ownership, speed, and impact at global scale.
The Role
We're not building another developer tool. We're building the system that replaces software development itself. As a Staff Engineer on Autonomous Systems, you will define the technical foundation for how AI agents reliably generate, test, and deploy production-grade software at global scale. This role exists for engineers who think in systems, care about correctness as much as speed, and want to solve problems that don't have playbooks.
