Generation Alpha Transistor (Gen-Alpha) is a San Francisco based start-up, building AI tools for chip designers. It's a space that’s gaining enormous momentum as demand for AI silicon keeps growing.

We’re looking for a Silicon Forward Deployed Engineer to join our rapidly growing team—an expert circuit designer who thrives at the intersection of deep technical work and real-world application. You’ll work side-by-side with customers, helping shape how advanced circuit design evolves in the AI era, and translating cutting-edge capabilities into tangible impact across their workflows.

Y Combinator | Product Engineers on YC's own team | San Francisco | Full Time | $185K-$485K

I'm Ryan, an EM and engineer here at YC. We have a small, 18-person software team with no PMs -- engineers own everything end-to-end.

We build the software behind YC's $6B in investments: tools that help partners evaluate thousands of startups per batch, AI-powered apps that founders use every day, and platforms like Work at a Startup that connect candidates with YC companies. Engineers get unlimited AI tokens -- both for development and to build AI-powered products. What wouldn't you build to help founders + YC with that much firepower?

What makes this different from other roles:

* You'd learn more about startups here than you could possibly imagine. Every batch brings hundreds of founders building things across every industry, and you're right in the middle of it.

* We attend Demo Day, founder dinners, and work directly with partners and many of the companies. (They make great products!)

* We pay well, offer carry in the fund (like equity), and provide generous relocation support if you're not in SF yet.

Two roles open:

* Product Engineer -- full-stack, own the product lifecycle. Rails/React stack. Build tools that power how YC invests in and supports startups. It's a wide range, and sometimes it feels like labs-like work, other times it feels like a supersuit to power founders and our Partners like Garry and Jared.

* Community Builder and Software Engineer -- hybrid role. Run YC's talent-facing programs (meetups, tech talks, career expos) AND build the software that makes them scale. You need to be a great engineer and LOVE to build and support communities.

We're also exploring a Technical Chief of Staff role to work with one of our GPs -- someone who can think analytically, drive operations, and scale what they do with software.

RAG, agents, prompt engineering, and evals when the work calls for them, not for show.

We're looking for someone who has shipped end-to-end as an early engineer somewhere small, has real opinions about LLM applications, and writes readable code. Comfort scoping with clients and communicating in writing is essential, since most of our work happens that way.

Coop (https://smart.coop.farm)| 2nd Founding Engineer | iOS Heavy Engineer | Hybrid onsite | Austin, TX | Full-time, Part-time

My name is AJ Forsythe and I'm the Founder / Chief Chicken Tender at Coop! We're an Austin TX based company on a mission to build the world’s largest decentralized food production network, starting with AI powered chicken Coops. We’ve been in the market for about 18 months and our customers are in 48 states and will generate about >10M eggs this year. It's insanely fun to work on and we have a shot at building a huge business in the connected urban farming space. If you’re big into computer vision, consumer products that are fun, and an awesome team we would love to chat. The Coop has an automatic door + cameras doing computer vision work (predator detection, egg alerts, remote health monitoring, etc). It's a super exciting time and are seeing directional product market fit which I'm thrilled about. Seriously go check out our website, it's a super fun + amazing product.

We’re a tight-knit team of 5 people with 15+ years of experience working together. We’ve been through YC, started and scaled multinational million-dollar businesses together, taking them from idea to acquisition by a Fortune 50 company. We’re gritty and passionate without taking ourselves too seriously - and we’re here to build something really exciting that helps people reconnect with their food and the planet. We're VC backed (call it $5M) by some of the world's best investors but we are a scrappy small team that moves fast.

We have an absolutely fantastic CTO Ryan that I'm looking for his / our right hand person to work alongside with. I think the term full stack is overused but that's closest to what we're looking for. Also this really isn’t a traditional Eng role, I look at it as we’re a small growing team and you would be one of us working on a ton a cool projects on day 1. Also, we LOVE working with founders so if you've started a company before that's epic.

Oh also, I have a fun project where I want to make a water gun turret that uses our cameras to detect predators and allows you to aim and blast them. If you're into hacking robotics and gimbals etc, please reach out.

You can also reach out to me directly at: aj[at]coop.farm - Just email me your LinkedIn / GitHub / portfolio + why you think you'll be an awesome fit and I'll respond. Please don’t use GPT too much. This is my 3rd company (2 have exited) and I want to build the super solid core team and you might be the perfect fit for us and vice versa.

Bwok Bwok! AJ

Opendate | Senior Full Stack Engineer (Ruby on Rails) | REMOTE (US only) | Full-time | https://www.opendate.io/careers/senior-full-stack-software-e...

Opendate is the operating system for live music venues — booking, ticketing, marketing, and settlement, all in one place. We replace the tangle of spreadsheets, holds-and-confirms email chains, and ticketing platforms that independent venues, promoters, and festivals have been duct-taping together for decades. Customers range from 200-cap clubs to multi-day festivals.

We're a Rails shop with real backend problems: multi-tenant ticketing at on-sale scale, financial settlements that have to reconcile to the penny, and integrations with the rest of the music industry's plumbing (Stripe, Dwolla, Seats.io, Twilio, SendGrid). If you like systems where correctness actually matters and the users are people you can go meet at a show, you'll fit in.

Stack: Rails, React/Redux, PostgreSQL, Redis, BigQuery, AWS, GCP, Docker, Terraform. Flutter on mobile. AI-first engineering culture — Cursor, Claude Code, and Copilot are part of the daily workflow, not banned from it.

100% remote within the US (no sponsorship), with optional Indianapolis or Chicago offices if you want them. Looking for 5+ years of senior full-stack experience, comfortable owning projects end-to-end and shipping to production weekly.

Burnin (London or NYC) | Founding Research Scientist + Founding Engineering Lead | Hybrid (Some on-site) | Full-time

We are building the trust stack for AI code generation, targeted at high-stakes computing where wrong numbers cost real money: a statically typed functional language designed for coding models, a compiler whose guarantees double as audit-grade trust infrastructure, and a coding model fine-tuned on the language with compiler fitness as the training signal. Language and model are co-designed.

Small team out of PyTorch, FAIR, and Meta. Strong institutional VC support from our pre-seed; active investor interest heading into seed.

Founding Research Scientist: own the agenda across the language and the model. Type system design, compiler analyses that produce useful fitness gradients, and fine-tuning open-weight coding models on a language with no pretraining footprint. Publish in PL and ML venues. Strongest fits cross between machine learning, programming languages, and formal methods. PhD preferred, equivalent output equally fine. Stack is Rust, Lean 4, Python.

Founding Engineering Lead: own engineering across compiler internals, language runtime, GPU backends, notebook and library tooling, and the AI infrastructure around training, evaluation, model release, and likely public inference. We already support x86 and ARM, CUDA and AMD, macOS and Linux, and the matrix grows. Real feel for statically typed functional programming expected; the kind of engineer who picks up Lean or Haskell on a weekend because they wanted to. Have led engineering before, formally or not. Stack is mostly Rust with Python where it earns its place, primarily on AWS.

Both roles: comfortable with early-stage ambiguity, define your own roadmap, defend it with evidence.
