Description For Founding Engineer

Usul is the all-in-one defense contracting platform. We help governments adopt defense technologies faster than ever before. We're serving the fastest growing defense companies and are backed by some of the most accredited defense investors.

As our Founding Full Stack Engineer, you will be at the forefront of building the foundations of our company. This isn't just a development role - you'll be deeply involved in the decision-making process every step of the way.

We're looking for someone who can:

  • Design, build, and ship full stack products that redefine how the government buys from industry
  • Work closely with the founders to create and implement bi-weekly product sprints
  • Travel on-site to DC to implement products for DoD and government customers
  • Build and scale our company engineering culture

What makes this opportunity unique:

  • Ground floor opportunity at a YC-backed startup (S24 batch)
  • Direct impact on shaping the future of defense technology adoption
  • Work with cutting-edge technologies including AI agents
  • Chance to build products that serve mission-critical national security needs

Requirements:

  • Must work in person at our San Francisco office
  • Passion for solving mission-critical national security problems
  • Excellent code execution with ability to ship high-quality code daily
  • Confidence to present (and get roasted by) our customers
  • Proficiency in React, Next.js, Python
  • Great understanding in building AI agents

Our interview process is straightforward:

  1. Initial meeting with CEO (Jarren)
  2. Technical screen with CTO (Joon) and CPO (Oliver)
  3. Onsite interview in SF
  4. Offer

Join us in revolutionizing how the government adopts defense technologies and be part of building something that matters for national security.
