!? Why ThreadWise
We're on a mission to fix one of the most broken, overlooked systems in the modern economy: commercial insurance.
It's a $1T+ industry drowning in complexity, bloated PDFs, outdated workflows, and zero automation. We're using LLMs, NLP, and intelligent agents to rebuild it from the ground up.
At ThreadWise, you won't just build, you'll lead. As an early team member, you'll shape core tech, define product direction, and help build a company that's solving real-world problems at scale.
If you're looking for deep impact, real ownership, and a mission that actually matters, this is your moment.
Role Summary
As our Founding Full Stack Engineer, you'll design and build core product experiences, ranging from frontend interfaces in React to backend systems in Python/TypeScript, that bring intelligent automation to life.
You'll work directly with the founders to shape the product, stack, and company from the ground up and play a key role in turning deep complexity into intuitive, impactful software.
If you're energized by ambiguity, love building from scratch, and want to lead with both code and conviction, this role is for you.
Who We're Looking For
This role goes beyond technical chops. We're looking for someone who is:
Comfortable with ambiguity. You find clarity in mess and keep momentum even when things are uncertain.
A strong communicator. You can clearly articulate problems, solutions, and tradeoffs with both technical and non-technical folks.
Able to push back but commit. You bring opinions and challenge ideas, but once a direction is chosen, you support it fully.
Ownership Mentality: You take the lead without waiting to be asked, owning features end-to-end, driving them forward, and making sure they deliver real impact.
Outcome-driven. You're not here to punch a clock -- you're here to make things happen, even if that means late nights and going the extra mile.
Startup Mindset: You move fast, learn faster, and aren't afraid to build with imperfect info.
Ideal Candidate Profile
Full Stack Engineering: Strong experience with JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, and React. Able to design, build, and maintain scalable web applications end-to-end.
Prompt Engineering Experience: Hands-on with LLMs, prompt design, and integrating AI/LLM-powered features into products.
Product Instincts: Ability to collaborate closely with users, turning complexity into clean, intuitive workflows.
Cloud Infrastructure: Comfortable deploying and scaling applications on AWS and GCP, with an eye for reliability, cost optimization, and security best practices.

Unlimited PTO - we trust you to take the time you need
100% covered health, dental, and vision insurance
Hybrid Flexibility: Enjoy the best of both worlds, work remotely most of the time, with two in-person collaboration days each week (and lunch is on us).
