Founding software engineer (React / Node.js)
SilkChart
About the role
At SilkChart, we’re on a mission to empower all companies to up their sales game, regardless of size. We do this through the first AI-powered sales coach to offer feedback live, during sales calls - enabling reps to improve their calls and win more deals. We are not just transforming the huge market for enterprise sales, we’re also carving out an entirely new $B segment and need incredible talent to achieve this ambitious goal together.
We are backed by some of the most respected investors in the world, such as SoftBank and Y Combinator, and founders/execs from companies such as Asana, Coinbase, Angi, Twitter, and Instacart.
Why SilkChart?
As a founding engineer, you'll work directly with the two co-founders and apply an entrepreneurial, growth mindset to your day-to day. You'll get to build upon the latest advances in tech - including LLMs, AI, and voice transcription/analysis. This is a ground floor opportunity to join early and tangibly shape the company's trajectory. You will experience the balance of being scrappy and operating at scale.
You will be empowered to identify opportunities that will help us grow and own them. In short, this role is designed for individuals who crave ownership, stimulating technical challenges, love shipping fast, and are mission driven. We won't sugar coat it - this will be hard work - but guaranteed to be the best learning experience.
