Software engineers build the core of Amplemarket.
The three co-founders have an engineering background (João, Luís and Mica studied Physics & Computer Science at university) and deeply value the work that engineers are responsible for.
Our main goal is to build a sales platform that helps companies grow. Our product requires us to solve a myriad of difficult engineering problems very diverse in nature: from working on NLP models that can extract information from a thread of emails, to scaling an elasticsearch cluster holding terabytes of data.
We are deeply aware of the importance of our tool to our customers and look for people that share that vision.
Among other things, our stack includes:
Ruby on Rails, React, PostgresQL, Elasticsearch, Redis
We don't require you to have experience in our stack to apply.
While this role includes people and process management responsibilities, we expect a strong technical foundation. You should be comfortable staying close to the codebase and stepping in hands-on when needed — providing technical guidance, debugging complex issues, and maintaining a high bar for quality and efficiency. You should expect to spend around 75% of your time hands-on, for example coding, reviewing changes, or improving platform stability and performance, as well as act as a key point of coordination between engineering and product, especially when multiple projects are running in parallel.
Main Responsibilities:
- Work directly with the co-founders on priorities, execution, and technical direction
- Act as the glue between engineering and product, ensuring alignment across teams and parallel projects
- Lead greenfield projects from the ground up, building new products powered by LLMs and AI technologies
- Provide technical mentorship and leadership to engineers on the team
- Plan and run engineering sprints to support predictable, high-quality delivery
- Stay hands-on when needed — coding, reviewing, and debugging complex issues
- Recruit and build a strong engineering team, owning the hiring process end to end
- Support engineers’ growth through feedback, mentorship, and stretch opportunities
- Contribute to company-wide engineering and process initiatives
- We are a post-Series A start-up
- Backed by YCombinator
- Strong technical founding team from MIT and IST (also founders of https://fermatslibrary.com/)
- Fast growing startup with product market fit
- Great team spirit
- Nice work environment
- Competitive Salary
- Health Insurance
- Stock Options
- Annual Company Trip in a secret location
- and more
