Founding Engineer

▪️Why Now

At Structured, we’re redefining how developers build and deploy data apps by consolidating the entire analytics stack into code. While AI tools like Copilot have made writing code faster, deploying production-grade data-intensive apps is still fragmented and inefficient. Trends like local-first development and in-process data querying are changing how modern apps are built: faster iteration, lower latency, and simpler infrastructure. Structured builds on these shifts with a lightweight SDK that lets developers prototype, deploy, and manage data applications (dashboards, internal tools) in hours instead of weeks. If you’re excited to build tools that push the boundaries of modern data development, join us.

▪️Why You

This isn’t your average “build what you’re told” role. You’ll work directly with the founders to shape the product, the company, and the future of this category. We need someone who’s:

• Ambitious: You want to own a piece of something big.
• Scrappy: You move fast, prioritize ruthlessly, and aren’t afraid to get your hands dirty.
• Product-Minded: You care deeply about the developer experience and know that good products aren’t just about the code.. they’re about the people using them.

▪️What You’ll Build

You’ll have the opportunity to shape the core architecture of Structured as part of the founding team. You’ll also work closely with early users to understand their pain points, iterate fast, and make sure Structured is the best tool they’ve ever used.

• Stack: Python, Typescript, Next.js, React, Postgres, AWS/GCP
• Build the Core SDK: Create the tools that let devs handle ingestion, transformation, and visualization in one place. Make it easy for devs to deploy apps locally or in the cloud.
• Design Interactive Components: Build a library of prebuilt UI tools (think sliders, tables, and charts) that feel effortless and beautiful to use.
• Solve Hard Problems: From real-time data sync to efficient cloud deployments and scaling apps for production environments.

▪️Why Us

• Team of Experts: Join a small team of highly-skilled ex-Meta engineers who care deeply about building tools that developers love.
• Well-Funded: We’re backed by YC, General Catalyst and top-tier investors who believe in our vision and are here to help us succeed
• Ownership: As an early team member, you’ll have significant equity and the chance to shape the company from day one.
