Why You're Here
You're not looking for a job. You're looking to build something that matters—with people who care as much as you do.
Maybe you're done with bloated org charts and decision-by-committee. Maybe you want to be there from day one and shape something real. Maybe you've been waiting for the right team and the right problem.
At PromptPartner, we're building AI automation systems that replace manual work for European businesses. We've come a long way with the product. Now we're bringing in Founding Engineers who want to help launch, scale, and drive things forward—technically, strategically, and culturally.
🧠 What You'll Do
As a Founding Engineer, you'll shape both the product and the company. This is a 0-to-1 role with real influence—on architecture, on roadmap, on culture.
- Build core systems — APIs, integrations, automation infrastructure
- Make architecture decisions — no one's going to hand you a spec
- Ship features fast — from idea to production in days
- Work directly with customers — understand problems, deliver solutions
- Set the technical bar — your code becomes the standard for future hires
- Influence product direction — you help decide what we build
🤖 AI-Native Engineering Required
This isn't optional. We're an AI company building with AI.
- Claude Code as your primary development environment—fluency required
- Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf or similar AI coding assistants daily
- Writing PRDs and specs that AI tools can execute effectively
- Building and orchestrating AI agents using MCP (Model Context Protocol)
- Experience with Claude API, GPT APIs for building AI-powered features
- Using Google Stitch, v0.dev or similar for rapid prototyping
- Staying current with AI dev tools—things change weekly, we adapt faster
- You should be pushing the boundaries of what's possible with AI-assisted development
🧬 Who You Are
You're a builder at heart. You thrive in ambiguity, love solving hard problems, and want your fingerprints on every part of the product.
- You learned to code before you knew what a "tech career" was
- You write code that's clean, purposeful, and a joy to build on
- You hate unnecessary abstractions—and even more, slow meetings
- You believe products should feel alive and stay lean
- You want to build with passionate people who move fast and care deeply
✗ This Isn't for You If...
- You need clear requirements before you can start
- You prefer maintaining systems over building new ones
- You're not comfortable with ambiguity
- You want work-life separation (this is an early-stage startup)
- You've never built something from scratch
- You're skeptical about AI-assisted development
