What are the responsibilities and job description for the Founding Full Stack Software Engineer - Serial Founder Team (Multiple Exits) •Austin Base Required • position at SeeSaw?
Team Overview
Ever felt that entrepreneurial itch? Here's your backstage pass to build something real in AI - no buzzword bingo, just hard tech with heart.
We're two battle-tested founders (Dan & Sean) who've :
Built & sold multiple startups (Pillow → Expedia, Notehall → Chegg)
Raised $$ from investors who actually know our track record
Learned what not to do through glorious failures
Let’s be honest : AI is about to make the internet either incredibly magical or utterly unusable. We’re building for Door #1.
Our answer? An AI-powered platform that fights fire with fire – keeping engagement actually human, and bots facilitate vs replace. Think of it as a digital BS filter for the coming AI chaos. Too vague? Good, we haven't even been on our first date and early-stage stealth mode keeps things interesting. We are based in ATX and would like this all-star we hire to be here as well.
Our vision centers on revolutionizing authentic engagement through an interactive challenge platform, with AI integration at its core. You'll be a key player in bringing the platform to life, scaling our systems, and setting the direction for our future. Join us at the ground level, where your contributions will directly influence our trajectory and success. This role offers a significant hands-on opportunity to be a founding engineer of a startup from the ground up, with opportunities for professional growth, leadership development, and the chance to build a platform that we believe has a lot of purpose and financial upside.
