About the role
- Building features and experiences from 0-to-1. This is a product-focused role, and you will be shipping regularly. You ideally have experience building early-stage products and are comfortable making technical trade-offs and taking risks.
- Design our AI-enabled capabilities. We are building out a set of application capabilities on top of foundational models, and you will be critical to determining how we structure those for adaptability, reuse, and scalability.
- Work with coaching to help translate coaching insights into AI Agents. Mento has a tremendous advantage in bringing AI coaching to life - an extremely strong team of active coaches. Part of this role will be figuring out how to translate coaching workflows into high-quality product experiences.
- Build pipelines and integrations to import and export data into the product. Our product connects into a wide ecosystem of productivity and learning and development tools. You will help us design and build these integrations scalably and reusable.
- Educate the team on best practices around data and AI. We have a small, fluid team filled with experts but not silos. As an expert bringing AI and data expertise, you will be expected to share your knowledge with the rest of the team via peer mentorship, code reviews, lunch and learns, and more.
Requirements
- You are a software engineer who has experience shipping data-related products into production with real users - we’re currently not looking for new grads.
- You’re comfortable working in dynamic programming languages and have experience with server-side web applications. You ideally have experience with event-driven architectures as well as traditional web stacks like Ruby on Rails or Laravel.
- You have an understanding of core data engineering and software architecture concepts for modern data-based applications. Ideal candidates will have opinions on things like designing search indexes and the right way to set up data pipelines.
- You have figured out how to productively integrate LLM-based coding tools (things like cursor, cody, etc) into your flow. We are early adopters & embracers of these techniques, and want to work with people for whom this is exciting rather than threatening.
- You operate well with some ambiguity. We’re an early-stage startup, and we’re still iterating fast and figuring out a lot about our customers. For some people, that’s thrilling, and for others terrifying. Know what you’re opting in to.

- Competitive salary and equity
- Medical, dental, vision, and a 401k plan
