## Description (the employer's text)

### ABOUT ORPEX

The next generation of service companies won't scale through headcount. They'll be built by tiny teams orchestrating AI workforces with 1000x the output. Orpex is building the infrastructure they run on: agentic workforce, company brain, human trust layer, one cockpit to run the business.

We just raised an oversubscribed 2.7M angel round in 7 days and are moving at rapid speed.

### THE ROLE

You own product surface end to end: the interface, the backend behind it, and the data model underneath. You decide what the right thing to build is, build it, and hear about it directly when it's wrong. You'll ship to production in your first week.

As a Member of Technical Staff, you’ll be responsible for building, refining, and scaling the agent systems inside Orpex, from architecture to evals to deployment.

You’ll work across frontend, backend and product to make sure the agents inside Orpex are actually working reliably.

### WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Proven builder. You've shipped something real to real users. It ran, it broke, you fixed it. We care about that far more than your stack.

Full-stack, for real. Great interfaces, and as deep on the backend as the feature needs.

Product engineer, not software developer. Nobody hands you a ticket. You talk to users, define the outcome, ship it.

Simplifier. You can hold a messy workflow in your head and find the version that's simple enough to ship this week.

AI-native. You write code with AI at a pace that would have looked unreasonable two years ago.

Intensity. You force things into existence. Bonus if you've founded something or joined a startup early.

### YOUR FIRST MONTH

Ship from day one. Production code in week one.

Own it end-to-end. Spec, build, deploy, talk to the user, iterate.

Do what needs doing. Infra, UI, customer calls, hiring the next engineer.

### WE OFFER

$150–250K USD base + meaningful early equity

San Francisco, in person. Relocation and visa sponsorship covered.

Pace and purpose. Small team, high standards, high trust, no politics.

### PROCESS

30-min intro call

90-min technical deep dive on something you built

Technical task

Offer the same week

If you want to build something truly generational and are ready to make it your life's mission, this is for you!
