About this role

Location: San Francisco

Compensation: $250K – $500K TC

Virio is building an AI coworker that writes content for every employee at your company. If you’re not sure what that means, that’s ok. All you need to know is that we are assembling a team of all-stars. We just had one of the most viral launches out of stealth and are ready to break some records.

As a Founding Engineer, you’ll be working directly with the CTO to design, build, and scale the world's first AI-native B2B content generation platform.

What you'll do:

  • Directly own an mission-critical portion of the platform like web scraping, pipeline optimization, or multimodal/voice AI interfaces.

  • Create novel AI-native experiences that harness text + video AI generativity.

  • Build net new features and ensure they're bulletproof against unexpected user behavior.

  • Design and implement your own ideas. You'll choose how close to users you want to be and, if desired, hear out user concerns and design solutions for them.

Qualities we’re looking for:

  • Excellence. You have been best-in-class at something.

  • Ambition. Your goal is to be the best in the world at what you do, and you won’t settle for anything less.

  • Unorthodox. You see things that other people don’t and use those insights to do things better, faster, smarter. 

  • Dedication. You get excited by the idea of working 6-7 days a week alongside teammates who feel the same way.

  • EQ. You can “read the room” and are adept at interpersonal communication.

  • Agency. You believe you are capable of learning and doing almost anything.

  • In-person. This team works in-person in San Francisco.

We are particularly excited by people who:

  • Live in the backend. You think in systems and are obsessed with architecting performant, scalable backend services.

  • Breathe Figma. You’re equally obsessed with imagining interactions as you are with implementing + putting them in the hands of users.

  • Couldn't find a scraper for the data they wanted so built one from scratch.

  • Have dabbled in creating short-form video content. Who says engineers can't be influencers?

One of the great operators of our time once said, “Give them to me young, hungry, and stupid—and in no time I will make them rich.” 

This is your big break. We’re waiting for you.

What you'll do

  • As a Founding Engineer, you will design, build, and scale an AI-native B2B content generation platform. You will directly own critical portions of the platform and create novel AI-native experiences.
