• Comfortable working independently to deliver features, handle integrations, and solve complex system challenges.
• Familiarity with conversational AI or LLM systems is strongly preferred.
• Understanding of SOC 2 compliance and privacy-focused design is a plus.

Benefits

• Competitive base salary + equity
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) (no employer match)
• Flexible PTO
• Remote-first culture with  optional coworking space in Minneapolis
