Meticulous is revolutionizing software development with their innovative approach to UI bug detection. As a London-based YC company backed by notable tech leaders like Guillermo Rauch (Vercel), Jason Warner (GitHub), and Scott Belsky (Adobe), they're building a powerful tool that automatically catches UI bugs through session replay technology.
The role of #4 Founding Engineer offers a unique opportunity to shape both the company's culture and technology from the ground up. You'll work on challenging problems like building distributed systems for concurrent session replay, optimizing performance while maintaining determinism, and developing intelligent algorithms for edge case detection.
The ideal candidate should be technically brilliant with experience in TypeScript or JavaScript, though raw technical talent is valued over specific technology experience. You'll join a team of five, working directly with founders to build out world-class engineering solutions.
Key responsibilities include architecting distributed systems, optimizing session replay mechanisms, developing detection algorithms, and helping build a collaborative engineering team. The position offers significant autonomy and the chance to influence software development approaches for years to come.
The company values transparency, continuous improvement, and technical excellence. They're backed by impressive investors and technical leaders in Silicon Valley, providing a strong foundation for growth and innovation. This is an opportunity to join a mission-driven team working to radically accelerate the pace of software development worldwide.
