The Role
We’re looking for an AI / Machine Learning Engineer to build the intelligence layer behind the RoleColorFinder leadership engine.

Your work will directly shape how users experience personalized insights, coaching, and leadership recommendations.
This is an unpaid, part-time, equity-only role at this stage.
This role is perfect for someone who loves rapid experimentation, working across multiple layers of the AI stack, and building features that ship fast.

Develop prompt pipelines, agents, and lightweight models
Build personalized leadership insight generation tools
Implement embeddings and vector search within Supabase
Power the AI-driven Slack assistant and reasoning workflows
Create internal tools for automated summaries and analytics
Iterate quickly, test outputs, and optimize for reliability and clarity
Requirements
Solid understanding of LLMs, prompt engineering, and OpenAI API usage
Experience with Python or JavaScript
Bonus: LangChain, embeddings, Supabase vector search, agents, tool-calling workflows
Ability to design systems that are reliable, testable, and predictable
Comfort working in a fast-paced, early-stage environment
⏰ Commitment
Flexible hours (part-time expectations)
Fully remote, async-friendly
High ownership over AI systems and experimentation
Compensation
0.01% equity
Performance-based scale-up to 0.05%
Note: Although Wellfound requires this role to be listed as “Full-Time,” the actual workload is flexible and part-time in practice. We care about consistent communication and strong output, not strict scheduling.
