## Job description

## About Town

Town is an AI-powered assistant that connects to your tools to do real work on your behalf -- triaging your inbox, drafting in your voice, managing your schedule, and running workflows across everything you use. It knows you deeply and gets sharper over time.

## About the Role

The core technical challenge at Town is: context from everywhere, action anywhere. The assistant pulls from your email, calendar, Slack, docs, and connected tools to build a deep understanding of who you are and what you need -- then executes reliably across all of them. Town is not a chat wrapper. It's a rethinking of email, calendar, and contacts through an AI-native lens, a workflow builder that lets anyone automate real work, a suggestion engine that discovers what to automate before you think to ask, and a network of assistants that talk to each other across teams and organizations. You'll design and ship the experiences that make all of that legible and loved. You'll be a foundational hire, working across the full stack but anchored on the product. You own features end to end -- from making tasteful UI/UX decisions to the backend plumbing that makes them real. Everyone has direct influence over product direction. The bar is high: the product has to feel polished, fast, and obviously better than the alternatives, on every surface.

Example projects include...

- Rethinking email, calendar, and contacts as AI-native experiences -- autonomous triage, drafts in your voice, 100% automated scheduling, an auto-built relationship graph
- Building the suggestion engine -- tasks and workflow suggestions to inspire users on what to automate next
- Designing the workflow builder -- making it trivial for anyone to build, share, and install automations
- Building team and shared workflow surfaces -- one person builds, the whole team benefits
- Building across web, desktop, mobile -- meeting users everywhere they work
- Rethinking approvals, notifications, and the home screen -- the everyday surfaces that make or break trust in an agent

You might thrive in this role if you...

- Are a generalist by choice -- comfortable moving between frontend, backend, and infrastructure as the problem demands.
- Are excited about owning surface area end to end in an ambiguous, fast-moving environment -- not just executing within a defined spec.
- Have strong product taste and can hold the whole experience in your head -- from the pixel to the prompt to the database schema. You care about how it feels, not just whether it works.
- Have tuned your AI-native coding workflow that makes you dramatically faster and more effective.
- Have experience with LLM-powered products, agentic UX, or any product where non-determinism is a first-class design constraint.
- Have shipped product at a high-growth startup through an inflection point -- you were there when the product was being defined, not maintained. We want to hear your concrete shipping stories.
- Care about trajectory over tenure. We're less interested in years of experience than how fast you got here and what you built along the way.
- Are excited about working in-person, five days a week. We believe it matters at this stage.

Location 5 days per week in person in either SF or NYC.

## About Town.com, Inc.

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: An applied AI company building a proactive, persistent AI assistant that learns how you work and acts on your behalf across email, calendar, docs, Slack, and CRM.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series A)
- **Headquarters**: San Francisco, California, USA
- **Founded**: 2024
- **Founders**: Jean-Denis Greze (CEO, former CTO of Plaid) and Tony Vincent (CPO, former Director of Applied AI at Google)

## Core Business
- **Primary industries**: Artificial Intelligence, Enterprise Software, Productivity
- **Target customers**: B2B (SMB to mid-market teams looking to automate knowledge work)
- **Mission**: "Make it easy for anyone to create and use software in their everyday work." — Town careers page

## Products & Services
- **[Town AI]**: A SaaS assistant that builds a persistent model of a user’s voice, judgment, relationships, and priorities. It observes, learns, and acts without waiting for prompts — triaging inbox, managing schedules, running workflows, and generating drafts. Replaces general-purpose chatbots like ChatGPT and Claude for daily work.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Not publicly disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Total funding of **$73M** (Seed $18M + Series A $55M) — some sources report $78.1M, likely including a smaller prior round or adjusted amount.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Series A led by **Andreessen Horowitz** with participation from **Forerunner Ventures**, **First Round Capital**, **Alt Capital**, and **Conviction**. Seed led by **First Round Capital**. Angel investors include Adam D’Angelo, Soleio Cuervo, and Immad Akhund.
- **Growth Signals**: Headcount grew **82.4% year-over-year** (LinkedIn, 2026). Currently **13–31 employees** depending on source. Early customers report replacing Claude, ChatGPT, and “OpenClaw” with Town because it “actually understands them.” The company was founded in 2024 and closed a $55M Series A in May 2026, signaling strong investor confidence.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Proactive persistence**: Town builds a model of the user’s preferences and takes action without explicit prompting — a deeper “memory” than chat-only AIs.
- **Deep tool integration**: Connects to email, calendar, Slack, CRM, and docs, acting across all of them.
- **Founder pedigree**: CEO scaled Plaid from $10M to $300M+ ARR; CPO co-founded a company acquired by Google and another by Dropbox.
- **Early traction**: Customers report preferring Town over leading competitors for daily work.

## Strategic Focus
- Aggressively building out the product and team in 2026 (5 open roles across engineering, product, design, business operations, and marketing).
- Scaling from early adopters to a broader SMB/mid-market audience.
- Continuing to iterate on the “persistent AI assistant” paradigm.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: “Action first. Chat second.” Principles include owning outcomes, making decisions with 70% information, and debating hard with ego aside.
- **Work environment**: Fully in‑person, five days a week in San Francisco’s Financial District. Early‑stage (one of first ~20 teammates) means high impact and ownership.
- **Compensation**: AI Product Engineer $225K–$300K, Staff Backend Engineer $250K–$300K, Business Operations $130K–$170K, Product Marketing $150K–$200K — all with competitive equity.
- **Benefits**: Fully covered medical, dental & vision; unlimited PTO; free daily lunch; commuter benefits; parental leave; 401(k).
- **Team**: Engineers and operators from Plaid, Apple, Facebook, Stripe, Lyft, Dropbox, CrowdStrike, HubSpot, Quora, and Asana.
