What it means to be a founding engineer

Joining Vellum this early means that you’re going to play a huge part in guiding both the technical and cultural evolution of the company. Together, we’re going to face the hardest technical challenges this journey has to offer head-on. As the team grows, you’ll be the battle hardened expert that everyone looks towards for guidance.

With great power comes great responsibility 🙂

What you’re signing up for

* Tackling our most difficult (and interesting) problems - prompt chaining, fine-tuning infrastructure, and multimodality, just to name a few

* Designing, architecting, and building robust critical infrastructure
* Owning our most important backend systems
* Defining and scoping green-field projects that move the company forward
* Working closely with customers to understand what the need, figuring out how to make them successful, and owning the solutions end to end
* Serving as a cultural pillar of the team
* Navigating a fast-moving, highly competitive landscape

Our stack

In case you’re curious:

* Google Cloud Platform - as our cloud provider

* Postgres - as our primary database
* Python - what we write our backend in
* Django - for our webservers
* Flask - for our microservices
* Typescript - what we write our frontend in
* React - as our frontend framework

Working at Vellum


* We’re laser focused on helping companies bring AI into production and providing real business value. Decision making is simple: if what we do allows our users to increase how many use cases of AI they’re able to successfully put into production, then we do it!

* Don’t just cut corners. Cut the right corners (i.e. reduce scope, not quality). What can you do with 10% of your time to get 90% of the desired impact? Now that you only spent 10% of the time on this task, imagine how much more can be done with the rest of your time!
* Everyone is a 1000x engineer/designer/pm when they’re passionate about the problems they’re solving and love the people they’re working with
* Because we trust each other, we can move fast and have fun doing it 😄
