Job description
Hey! We're team Granola 👋 If you haven't already, you should check out what we're building, and why you should work here. We’re looking for an engineer who loves building products in a fast-paced, iterative environment. In this role, you will come up with new ways to unlock value for our users using LLMs and enhance the quality and performance of our application. You’ll be talking directly with users to understand their problems and develop the features they need most.
In this role, you will:
- Own the development of new user-facing features end-to-end. Things like: agentic workflows, real time collaboration and lots of 0 to 1 prototyping
- Optimise the application for speed, scale, and reliability
- Interact with users to understand their problems and design solutions
- Collaborate with a cross-functional team of engineers, product managers, designers, and other members of the team to create a cutting-edge product
Your background looks something like:
- Engineering experience at tech and product-driven companies
- Proficiency with TypeScript, Node.js, and React.js (Framer Motion, Tailwind and Radix is a strong plus)
- Proficiency with relational databases like Postgres
- Experience with cloud infrastructure (we use AWS and Terraform)
As a person, you…
- Are first and foremost a builder
- Are excited to work in-person from our office in London (most of the time)
- Love working in a startup environment (you either have experience working in a startup or are really drawn to the zero-to-one phase)
- Value working with people who are kind, ambitious, and pragmatic
- Have an interest in AI/ML (direct experience not required)
- Thrive in a fast-paced environment with evolving requirements and priorities
About the opportunity
We are living in the most exciting time for tool builders since Engelbart's demo in 1968. We want to assemble the best crew to build this future together, here in London. Our compensation philosophy is to pay slightly above market on salary and above market on equity. We do our best work in person, and so our team spends time together five days per week in our new, bright, and spacious office at Old Street. We are happy to offer relocation assistance to candidates who'll be moving to London to join us. Lastly, we think amazing talent comes from all kinds of life journeys and experiences. If what is written above speaks to you, whether you look like a fit on paper or not, please reach out.
