Engineering teams are about to get a lot smaller and a lot more powerful. One engineer running a handful of agents in parallel can now ship what used to take a whole team, and we're building Sherpa that way from day one. As one of our first engineers, you'll help define what that team looks like.
You'll build software that agents love, with agents. That means the platform that builds, hosts and serves our customers' sites at the edge, the MCP and CLI agents use to change them safely, and the systems that make all of it feel simple for the people in charge. You'll own big pieces of the stack end to end and ship to production every day.
If you want to build for the next version of the internet and redefine how engineering gets done, this is for you. It's for someone with high taste who cares about design as much as the code underneath it, has a knack for making hard things simple and can't stop building.
What you'd work on
- Building things agents love, with agents
- The platform that builds, hosts and serves our customers' sites
- Our MCP and CLI, so agents can build, edit and ship sites safely
- The CMS and publish review, so teams can trust what agents change
- New interfaces for agents to browse and interact with websites
- New ways to track what agents are doing on a website
- Autonomous systems that let a website improve itself for its customers
- Sites that personalize themselves for every visitor, human or agent
You might be a fit if
- You've shipped production software that real people depend on
- You build with Claude Code and Codex all day and have strong opinions about it
- You care how things look and feel, not just whether they work
- You have a knack for making complicated things simple
- You like owning a problem from the first customer conversation to the release
This role is not for you if
- You use AI less than 10 hours a day
- You want a spec handed to you before you start
- You only want to work on one layer of the stack
- Design and UX feel like someone else's job
- You don't want to talk to customers
How we work
- Every day starts with standup. We all meet, figure out the highest priority right now, and go knock it out.
- You'll run several agents at once. A lot of the job is reviewing their work and sending them back out.
- Everyone gets a maxed-out MacBook and unlimited AI credits. You're expected to be using agents all the time.
- Team lunch every day, product review in the evening, and a ping pong tournament somewhere in between.
