About the Role

I am hiring the first senior engineering hire for an early-stage multi-agent product. This role is for a senior backend/platform builder who enjoys shipping products rather than just designing systems.

You will work directly with me to turn a strong technical direction into a dependable product. The work involves a mix of orchestration, integrations, reliability, auditability, and getting useful workflow automation into users’ hands quickly.

Requirements

  • 6+ years of experience shipping end-to-end products.
  • Strong backend judgment and product range.
  • A "low-ceremony" working style.
  • Comfort with ambiguity.

Preferred Experience

It is helpful if you care about:

  • Retries and tool boundaries.
  • Observability.
  • Human override in AI systems.

How to Apply

If this sounds like your lane, please email dave@evanlee.co.uk with a short note and links to your shipped work.
