    Job Description

    Senior Full-Stack Engineer (AI)
    Location: Hybrid (2–3 days/week onsite) – Bay Area, CA
     
    About Blazel
    Blazel is building an AI-powered marketing platform that helps companies create, manage, and
    scale content across channels. After raising $7.3M in pre-seed funding, we're rapidly expanding our engineering team as we prepare for enterprise customers and our next phase of growth.
     
    We're looking for engineers who love building from first principles, thrive in ambiguity, and want to help build a category-defining AI company.

    The Role
    We're hiring 1–2 Senior Full-Stack Engineers to join our core engineering team.
    Today, our CEO is still heavily involved in engineering. We need experienced builders who can take ownership of major product initiatives, help scale our architecture, and accelerate product development as we transition from startup to enterprise.
    This isn't a narrowly scoped engineering role. You'll work across the entire stack - from frontend
    experiences to backend systems, cloud infrastructure, AI workflows, and production architecture.

    What You'll Do
    Design, build, and ship full-stack product features from idea to production
    Develop backend services using Python
    Build modern web applications and help transition our product from desktop to web and mobile
    Design scalable cloud infrastructure on AWS, GCP, or similar platforms
    Improve AI agent pipelines for speed, reliability, and output quality
    Optimize system architecture for enterprise customers
    Build secure, highly available production systems
    Partner directly with founders on product direction and technical decisions
    Move quickly while maintaining high engineering standards
     
    What We're Looking For
    6+ years of professional software engineering experience
    Strong full-stack development experience
    Deep Python experience
    Experience building and deploying cloud-native applications (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
    Comfortable working across frontend, backend, infrastructure, APIs, and architecture
    Hands-on experience using AI coding tools to improve engineering productivity
    Experience shipping production software at a high quality bar
    Strong debugging and problem-solving skills
    Startup experience or an ownership mindset
     
    Nice to Have
    Experience building AI-powered products
    Machine learning or LLM experience
    Enterprise SaaS experience
    Multi-tenant architecture
    Security, compliance, or SOC 2 experience
     
    Who You Are
    You thrive in fast-moving environments where priorities change quickly.
    You enjoy solving hard technical problems, take ownership without waiting for direction, and aren't afraid to jump into unfamiliar parts of the stack.
    You're collaborative, humble, and focused on building great products—not protecting your job description.
    Most importantly, you're excited about helping build something from the ground up.
     
    Why Join Blazel?
    Competitive salary
    Meaningful equity with significant upside
    Work directly with experienced founders
    Build AI products used by enterprise customers
    Small, high-performing engineering team
    Opportunity to shape both the product and engineering culture
    Join at an early stage with ambitious growth plans
     
    If you're looking for a role where your work will directly shape the future of an AI company - and you enjoy the pace, ownership, and impact of an early-stage startup - we'd love to talk.
