We look for builders who have shipped — people who’ve launched something real and are proud of the outcome — more than a specific title or pedigree.
Everyone here operates across three lenses: product, design, and engineering. That means real design sense, production-quality code, and product-manager-level reasoning, without outsourcing any of it. What sets people apart isn’t which of the three they can do — it’s which one they lead with.
Taste and judgment sharp enough to orchestrate AI-assisted prototyping at high speed while holding a bar most teams miss even working slowly.
Identify what good looks like before it exists — faced with dozens of AI-generated directions, can immediately spot the two worth refining.
Know what to build, not just how. Understand our user — a solo business owner with 90 seconds to spare — well enough to make the call without a committee.
Operate AI tools like instruments — fast prototyping loops, rapid evaluation, continuous refinement — getting through in days what would take a team weeks, without cutting corners.
Own a design surface end to end: concept, prototype, production code, and the system it plugs into.
