Joblaze insights
Quick facts
From the original posting
Ando is a messaging platform where AI agents can take on work alongside human. We’re rebuilding Slack from the ground up around two core ideas: durable memory and agents as first-class participants.
While we are pushing the frontier, we still have classic messaging challenges to address. Ando has to feel faster, lighter, and more delightful than the tools people use today. The bar is high. People need to want to spend hours of their working lives in Ando, and then convince their teammates and friends to do the same.
We’re looking for founding engineers who are excited by that challenge: building a product from first principles, shaping the future of how humans and AI collaborate, and dogfooding what they build every day.
Why you should join Ando, when you have a sea of other options?
You want to work with colleagues who have high standards and who love building beautiful, performant software
You prefer the dopamine of working on software that will get into hundreds of thousands of users' hands, vs working on enterprise, forward-deployed software
We deeply care about using AI in our work. Don't proceed with applying if:
You don't love agents / don't use them daily
You don't value craft and cannot speak to software that inspires you
What you’ll be working on at Ando:
Architect and ship core messaging infrastructure that feels sturdy and is super fast
Contribute to our MCP/API + agent developer platform + sandbox system that outside builders actually love to use
Work on SOTA memory and retrieval systems
Design our proactive agent orchestration layer
Prototype new interaction patterns for human-agent collaboration
Raise our bar for engineering craft, help with recruiting, and hold the line on quality
Dogfood the platform every day :)
Qualifications
3+ years of full time SWE work
A deep interest in the quirks of LLMs and agents, memory systems, tool use, etc
Ability to work very fast without cutting corners on quality
Hiring process
30 min intro call
Technical conversation - walk us through an app you've shipped
Paid take-home or IRL work trial
Benefits
Free Equinox membership & other health perks
Generous equity grant vested over 4 years
Health, dental, vision insurance
