Role

We’re looking for a Full-Stack Engineer to build end-to-end features from data pipelines and LLM workflows to front-end delivery. The role will start as part-time (20h/week) with a potential to become full-time. 

  • Build an enterprise-grade, bleeding edge customer facing product. 
  • Collaborate closely with the founding team to prioritise product features from the tech perspective.
  • Contribute to Plug’s engineering practices so that our small team can achieve an incredible amount of great work.
What you build

You develop the killer app at the cutting edge of AI for a niche domain with a huge potential to scale to adjacent use cases. This includes building: 

  • The technical foundation of a company poised to transform digital advertising.
  • Advanced backend systems to process and analyze a massive amount of paid social performance data.
  • AI systems to analyze vast creative (text, image, video) datasets to extract actionable creative insights. 
  • Prototyping and developing practical, scalable automation workflows to make the lives of digital advertisers easier.
  • Efficient and scalable AI-powered creative production pipelines, cleverly utilising existing off-the-shelf solutions like image-to-video and human-like avatar capabilities.
  • Slick and intuitive frontend on your preferred stack to make complex data actionable for non-technical users. 
  • We currently work with a tech stack including Google Cloud Platform, Gemini/OpenAI APIs, BigQuery, Supabase, Gumloop,  Firecrawl, and Linear – we expect you to contribute to the evolution of this stack.
Qualifications

We do not expect you to be a seasoned pro in everything listed below, but the list gives you an impression of areas that your work will touch and cover.

  • Expertise in processing and analysing large datasets, especially in environments like PostgreSQL and BigQuery.
  • Experience or strong motivation to learn and work with RAG and LLMs, at scale and efficiently. 
  • You have a strong sense of what makes a great user experience and care about the details.
  • Full-stack experience with modern JavaScript/TypeScript stack. You can own entire features from backend to frontend.
  • You write scalable, maintainable code.
  • You can build and ship high-quality web applications.
  • Genuine passion for AI tools of the future
  • Experience with CI/CD best practices.
  • Experience with social platform related databases like Meta Graph API.
For who

We appreciate raw talent and willingness to learn more than experience. We look for people who: 

  • You effectively manage tasks within a 50% schedule, communicating progress and blockers with the team.
  • Prioritize ruthlessly and thrive with high autonomy.
  • Solve problems with a bias for action, owning challenges end-to-end rather than just one layer.
  • Embrace ambiguity with an entrepreneurial mindset: this isn't a role with comfortable, well-defined tasks but requires willingness to push boundaries and experiment.
  • Obsess over customer needs, building with advertisers through tight feedback loops.
  • Demonstrate curiosity and continuous improvement in everything you do.
  • See the big picture beyond technical challenges while maintaining a high bar for quality.
  • Communicate complex technical decisions clearly as a true team player to technical and non-technical people.
  • Have demonstrated experience in building high-quality software solutions from scratch.
Benefits
  • Build real value at the bleeding edge of Generative AI, RAG systems, and LLM agents with immediate real-world impact.
  • Work directly with company founders and a smart, driven team of domain experts.
  • Contribute to the technical foundation and team culture of an early-stage startup with massive growth potential.
  • Take on challenging work in a fast-paced environment with potential to grow into Lead or Head of roles as the team scales.
