Who are we?
We’re transforming one of the last untapped industries where billion-dollar enterprises still rely on pen and paper. Inspections are critical to global safety, yet the technology behind them still mostly functions on manual processes.
Every day, over a million inspectors manually assess infrastructure, factories, and goods using processes that haven’t evolved in decades. The result? Delays, errors, and billions in losses. We’re using AI to change that - building a future where inspections are instant, precise, and fully automated.
We’ve raised an oversubscribed pre-seed round totalling $4M from tier one investors (who backed Stripe, Lime, Discord, Flexport).
We work with some of the largest Testing, Inspection, and Certification (TIC) companies globally increasing inspection throughput.
This is an incredible moment to join as we scale rapidly toward Series A.
About this role
We’ve closed major enterprise deals, proven demand, and are scaling fast. Now, we’re looking for a truly exceptional Full-Stack Engineer to help us build the AI-powered platform that will redefine industrial inspections.
This is not a standard software engineering job. As a Founding Engineer, you’ll be a key architect of both our technology and our company. You’ll be moving fast, owning decisions, and solving massive real-world problems alongside top enterprise clients.
We think this is the best early stage place to work in London, for future founders or engineers who want to see impact at scale.
Why Join Us?
🚀 Build from scratch - Your work will define our product and engineering culture.
📈 Fast growth - We’re scaling rapidly, and you’ll be a key part of the journey.
💡 High ownership - You’ll have autonomy and responsibility from day one.
⚡️High impact - Solve problems that matter, our customers say our product is a 'life-saver', and that they 'didn't know what I was doing before'.
🤖 See real usage from LLMs and build something that people need, not just another AI SDR bot.
What You’ll Do:
* Ship full-stack features that solve real enterprise pain points
* Move fast - build, test, and iterate with user feedback
* Own everything from user conversations to architecture design to UI
* Make smart technical trade-offs while optimising for impact
* Work closely with enterprise users to refine and improve the product. It’s similar to a “forward deployed engineer” model.
* See the world of atoms and spend meaningful time with customers. This could include going on-site with inspectors at the largest ammonia plant in Europe or visiting manufacturing plants that account for 4% of the UK’s GDP
Who you are:
* Can build frontend and backend (we mostly use Typescript, NextJS, NestJS)
* Passion for design quality balancing functionality and aesthetic appeal
* Act with high agency
* You can figure out the 20% that will drive 80% of the results
Bonus Points If You Have:
* Past experience in early-stage startups
* Building products 0-1 (this could be a side project or in your previous experience)
* Experience working with enterprise products or B2B SaaS
* Experience working with LLMs

What is it like to work here?
At our early stage, we care about reducing communication latency, and moving quickly. That’s why we work in person five days a week from our sunny office in Covent Garden. We believe being together helps us move faster and solve problems more effectively.
This isn’t a typical 9-5. Things will break. Priorities will shift. We embrace uncertainty and thrive in a fast-moving environment.
That said, we understand that life happens, and flexibility is important when personal situations arise.
If you’re looking for rigid structure, this might not be the place for you. But if you’re excited about shaping the future of AI-powered automation, taking true ownership, and working directly with enterprise customers to make an immediate impact, then this is the place.
Our Values
* Work Ethic – Creating value takes grit, dedication, and relentless effort.
* Excellence – We raise the bar every day and expect world-class execution.
* Humility – We are driven by the work we need to do, not by the work that we have done.
Our Interview Process:
* An initial call with Founders Associate (Kamil)
* A collaborative exercise with the engineering team
* An Interview with a cofounder - Jonny (CEO) or Jakob (CTO)
* Onsite Product Building Interview - This will include a day onsite with us, collaborating with the team and getting a feel of what it would be like to work here.
* Offer!
We believe great ideas come from diverse perspectives. We’re committed to building an inclusive team where everyone - regardless of background, identity, or experience - feels valued and empowered to do their best work. If you're excited about this role but don’t meet every requirement, we still encourage you to apply!
