Job description

Superpilot is AI agent for marketers. We help some of the biggest brands in the world accelerate their commerce marketing workflows, get discovered by AI Apps like ChatGPT & Gemini, and deliver superior shopper experiences. ## **The Role** We're looking for a Founding Engineer to help build our core product from the ground up. You'll work directly with leadership to ship features that enterprise commerce brands rely on daily. This is a high-ownership role where your technical decisions will shape our architecture for years to come. ## Why Superpilot? Marketing is in the middle of an actual platform shift. Agentic AI products are going to augment a generation of marketing tools, and the design patterns for those products are still being created. This is a small window to do the foundational design work for one of the products that defines the category. ## What You'll Do - Build and scale the Superpilot apps and agents - Develop systems that track brand performance across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini - Create automated content generation pipelines and schema markup tooling - Ship production features quickly while maintaining code quality - Collaborate directly with customers to understand their problems and build solutions ## What We're Looking For **JavaScript expertise** - You've built production applications in Node.js and modern frontend frameworks. You understand async patterns, can debug complex systems, and write code that other engineers enjoy working with. **AI/ML fluency** - You've worked with LLMs beyond just API calls. Ideally you understand prompt engineering, RAG architectures, or have built AI-powered features. Bonus if you've thought about how AI search engines consume and cite content. **Full-stack instincts** - You're comfortable moving between frontend, backend, and infrastructure. You don't need permission to fix something that's broken. **Startup pace** - You've shipped in environments where speed matters. You know when to build it right and when to build it now. **Commerce or SEO background** - Not required, but helpful. If you've worked on e-commerce platforms, marketing tech, or search optimization, you'll ramp faster. ## Why Join Now - **Early equity** in a company positioned at a major inflection point in how commerce works - **Direct impact** on product direction and technical architecture - **Hard problems** at the intersection of AI, search, and commerce - **Small team** where your work ships to real customers immediately
