About Neuroscale

Neuroscale is building the AI recruiting operating system, one unified platform for your entire talent organization, from first touch to hired. Arbi eliminates fragmented workflows, integrates directly with your ATS, and orchestrates AI agents for sourcing, outreach, screening, and candidate intelligence end-to-end. By combining reasoning-optimized models with deep workflow automation, Arbi helps talent teams win more top candidates with dramatically less friction.

We’re backed by top operators and investors, and we’re growing fast. Our momentum is further fueled by blue-chip partners and programs, including the NVIDIA Inception Program, the HPE Unleash AI Program, and our active DoD SBIR Phase II award and contract.

We’re now hiring a Founding Software Engineer to help accelerate features on Arbi to help us dominate one of the largest and fastest-expanding categories in modern software.

The Role

We’re hiring a Founding Software Engineer to help us scale and evolve our core systems. You'll work closely with AI engineers, frontend devs, and product leads to build the APIs, services, and infrastructure powering our agentic workflows.

This is a hands-on role for someone who knows how to build enterprise-grade backends using modern JavaScript/TypeScript stacks. You’ll lead major technical efforts, make architecture decisions that scale, and help us stay fast, reliable, and resilient as our user base grows.

• Develop and document robust REST and GraphQL APIs used by frontend and AI components

• Work with PostgreSQL and Redis to manage structured and real-time data

• Collaborate across teams to integrate AI pipelines, inference systems, and third-party APIs

• Own backend performance, reliability, observability, and dev workflow improvements

• Drive engineering excellence via clean code, code reviews, and strong documentation

• Evolve our authentication, authorization, and permissioning systems

• Contribute to architecture decisions with a long-term view on scale and maintainability

Who You Are

• Have 4+ years of experience building production-grade backend systems

• Know your way around Docker, CI/CD pipelines, and version control with Git

• Value clean architecture, modular codebases, and well-structured data models

• Thrive in a high-ownership, fast-paced startup environment with evolving priorities

Bonus Points

• Experience building secure, scalable auth systems (OAuth2, SSO, etc.)

• Familiarity with async patterns, workers, or event-driven systems (e.g., BullMQ, RabbitMQ)

• Exposure to AI/ML tooling, vector databases, or real-time inference workloads

• Experience in B2B SaaS or enterprise-scale backend platforms

What’s in It for You

• Join a tight-knit engineering team shipping fast and building with ambition

• Work on products used by real-world recruiters, analysts, and decision-makers

• Be part of a mission-driven company redefining how humans and AI collaborate

• Competitive salary, meaningful early-stage equity, and flexible work arrangements

• Zero bureaucracy, high trust, and a strong culture of ownership and technical excellence

• Base Salary: $100K–$200K

• Performance bonus: Quarterly bonuses tied to clear feature shipping targets

• Equity: Meaningful early-stage equity (~0.25-0.5%) with a clear range shared during the process

• Benefits: Medical, dental, vision, 14-days of PTO accrued annually

• Learning: At least $2,000 per year for courses, events, books, and growth communities

• Tools and setup: New macbook, monitor, and a monthly tools budget to run the stack you want

• Workspace: Monthly co-working or home office stipend

• Flexibility: Remote-first, flexible hours, and work-from-anywhere (digital nomad)
