What are the responsibilities and job description for the engineering position at Wordware Inc?
what is wordware?
we're building the all-in-one platform for AI development.
here's what that actually means :
the core : a programming language for building just AI assembly language for the new reasoning unit (LLM) is English, so let's put it front and centre and incorporate best concepts from software engineering :
- conditional statements
- loops
- function calling functions (aka in fancy language multi-agent communication) - this is more difficult than it seems because of the needed type system (see below)
- type system (especially important for interacting with multimodal LLMs where one output might have to be transformed to be passed on forward to the next step of the flow which might incorporate an LLM which can only interact with specific modalities)
- easy linking with Tools (custom or prebuilt and ready to use : speech-to-text, image generation, ElevenLabs, research and many more
the ide : where the magic happens like notion met vscode and had a baby. build and test AI flows instantly, see results in real-time, iterate fast.
deployment : choose your flavor
plug your AI engine straight into your product
automate your work with triggers and actions
deploy as public / private web apps
engineering @ wordware
tl;dr we need someone who can build fast, think big, and doesn't mind wearing multiple hats. you'll be crafting the foundation of an ai development platform used by hundreds of thousands of builders. if you've ever wanted to see your code shape an entire industry, this might be your jam.
the bigger picture : we're not just talking to traditional developers. we're reaching the next 500 million people who will be "coding" with plain english - lawyers, designers, product managers, founders, and domain experts of all kinds. our product needs to thread an impossible needle : deep enough for engineers, accessible enough for everyone else, and compelling enough to show both groups why this matters.
what you'll actually be doing :
collaborative ide for ai development (think google docs meets vscode)
a core part of wordware is the executor that interprets the wordware schema to run the agents. these agents can have arbitrarily long duration especially when they request input from a human. they also need to have extremely low latency for the realtime case. plus be highly reliable. oh, and they need to be traceable and debuggable by our end users and scale from zero to thousands in a matter of seconds.
you should probably :
typescript next.js react
real talk :
if you've ever :
ps : we're backed by spark capital, felicis, and y combinator ($30m seed - biggest out of YC round) but we still work like a seed startup. and yes, the office will have a sauna and be 30m from the sea
