Tasks

What we are looking for?

We want to be transparent with you, this position is not for everyone. We are looking for our first key hire to take responsibility and leadership in building the technical foundations side by side with our experienced CTO. Somebody who is well accustomed and not afraid to jump from the back to the front end, from the cloud to the whiteboard. Somebody who starts with a good base to grow with the trajectory of the company.

We know that the below areas could each be filled by an own team and in two years it will be. However, for now, we look for somebody who wants to put skin in the game, roll up their sleeves together with us and drive our growth.

If you have previously designed a product from the ground up, wrote the API endpoints to make it

Areas you will work with:

  • API Endpoints - Our vision is to bring our text generation technology into every text box there is. We have terabytes of AI models looking to be integrated in various digital ecosystems.
  • Web Architecture - Have a good eye for design and understand what drives value to our communication. User experience is a critical part of each product that we are releasing. Therefore we expect you to have an understanding of what would work best in terms of usability while doing the design.
  • Data Acquisition - We value strong datasets to achieve outstanding results with our technology. Creativity in searching and acquiring the best data is the strongest moat we create.
  • Cloud Computing - We started with a server under the founder's desk going over to build cloud-agnostic software. We are masters in getting the most out of the compute we acquire.

Requirements

What you should bring along

  • Eye for Usability and Design, User experience is a critical part of each product that we are releasing.

In many cases, you will need to move without having input from UI / UX designers.
  • Proactive, every day we are making 100s of decisions for developing our core product. When you see the need, we expect you to make some of those critical decisions on your own just like a business owner would do.

  • Thirst for growth, you are on the verge from tactician to strategist and want to grow at the same speed the company grows
  • Outstanding writing skills, we are a team of passionate writers ourselves. We see the written word as a key for communicating internally as well as externally, the ability to effectively cause both understanding and action in others without the use of the written word is essential.
