Founding Engineer (Product Engineering, Backend)

Trellis is building an AI-powered workflow for unstructured data, transforming complex data sources like financial documents, insurance policies, and chat logs into SQL-compliant tables. As a YC and General Catalyst-backed startup with support from early investors in Google, Salesforce, and JP Morgan Chase, we're revolutionizing data infrastructure.

Our platform enables enterprises to unlock hidden revenue in customer data, enhance RAG applications with analytical capabilities, and enrich data warehouses with business-critical information. We're particularly proud of our world-class team, including international physics olympiad winners and Stanford graduate-level instructors.

As a Founding Backend Engineer, you'll:

• Be at the forefront of AI and Data infrastructure innovation
• Join an early-stage startup spun out from the Stanford AI lab
• Work directly with F500 enterprise clients
• Have extreme ownership over end-to-end product development
• Collaborate with technical founders who are engineers, not business majors

We're looking for someone who's passionate about building high-quality software with direct impact. You'll be instrumental in architecting our platform from the ground up, working with cutting-edge technologies in AI, ML, and cloud infrastructure.

The role offers a unique opportunity to shape the future of unstructured data processing while working alongside exceptional talent. You'll be part of a team that values technical excellence, innovation, and direct impact on business outcomes. If you're excited about transforming how enterprises handle complex data while working in a fast-paced, engineering-driven environment, this role is for you.
