We are looking for an engineering lead to push the overall architecture and design of our product. Specifically, the role is for someone who:
- Is a prolific programmer
- Is well versed in all aspects of our tech stack, from our cloud infrastructure to our backend design and our front-end application
- Can build a scalable (enough) infrastructure to support our current workloads, yet flexible enough to be improved and refactored down the line
- Is able to make decisions quickly. We value speed of execution with a working product more than anything
Additionally, we are looking for someone who is:
- Ready to join the mission of a small team taking on a big industry
- Interested in AI advancements
- Excited about the space of podcasts
- Interested in advancing the boundaries of Audio AI
- A plus, but not required to have experience in interacting programmatically with media files
What’s in it for you?
- At Wondercraft, everyone wins. We believe in creating positive-sum outcomes in all interactions we have, internally and externally.
- At Wondercraft, you have the chance to really make a difference by getting your hands dirty and building something rapidly. We believe in building magic at lightning speed. We’ve been proud to ship quality features every single week, and we intend to only increase this pace even further.
- At Wondercraft, you have the chance to grow. Working in a small team means you are working directly with the Founders. Regardless of your career aspirations, you would have so much to learn from Wondercraft.
- Wondercraft is one of the fastest growing AI companies, especially in the Text-to-Speech space and will soon be raising a Series A round. Joining now gives you the opportunity to get equity at a very meaningful value.
Plus some on-the-job benefits:
- Salary range $80k - $135k depending on how much you have to bring to the table. We are keen to compensate for the value you create!
- Equity range 0.75% - 1.5% again depending on how much you have to bring to the table.
- Private health insurance so that we can take care of your physical health.
- Take-what-you-need holiday as the life in a startup can be intense, and we believe maintaining a work-life balance is important.
- Hybrid working. We would prefer to all work together in our office in central London because we believe face-to-face contact time is essential for us growing together a team. That said, we don’t mind if you work from home one or two days a week.
