About the Role

As the AI Technical Lead at Martell Ventures, you’ll be the engine behind our product, translating real-world recruiting problems into lightning-fast, scalable AI solutions.

You’ll work side-by-side with a commercially proven co-founder under Martell Ventures' battle-tested venture studio model, owning everything from architecture to iteration velocity. This role is perfect for a pragmatic, execution-led builder ready to ship with speed, autonomy, and clarity, without the fundraising distraction.

What You'll Do

Product Velocity

• Translate validated user problems into fast, functional MVPs

• Own the full stack: from AI integrations to modular codebases

• Build and ship rapidly without over-engineering

• Manage the product roadmap in tight sync with the CEO

• Drive clean UX, performance, and iteration speed

AI-Enabled Innovation

• Leverage LLMs, automation, and AI-native tooling to 10x recruiting workflows

• Build smart growth loops and feedback mechanisms into the product

Technical Leadership

• Own code quality, technical hiring, and engineering standards from day one

• Set a high bar for performance, security, and scalability

• Contribute directly as a solo builder while preparing for scale

• Operate as the internal compass for all things tech

What You Bring

Required Qualifications

• 4+ years of experience building and scaling SaaS products or AI tools

• Strong experience with AI/LLMs, automation, and modern full-stack frameworks

• Experience shipping products end-to-end in a startup or lean environment

• Deep knowledge of low-code tools, APIs, and third-party integrations

• Ability to work solo in the early stages, scrappy, focused, and autonomous

• High standards for code quality, UX, and engineering speed

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in recruiting tech, marketplaces, or HR platforms

• Prior role as founding engineer, lead developer, or technical co-founder

• Familiarity with performance optimization, DevOps, and rapid release cycles

• Product intuition backed by user empathy and feedback loops
