About us
Nativ is building the AI-native orchestration layer for industrial operations.
Our initial product focuses on order processing across Customer Service and Supply teams - an area that remains largely manual, fragmented across emails, EDI, and customer portals, and deeply inefficient. Today, companies still process thousands of B2B orders every day, representing millions in value, through sub-optimal workflows.
This process is ripe for automation, and we believe the space is on the verge of a major transformation.
Using AI, we help operational teams collect, understand, and secure customer orders before they reach the ERP. And automate at scale their operations.
Our long-term ambition is to become a true Operating System for industrial workflows
We’ve just closed a pre-seed round with top-tier VCs and are now entering a critical phase: structuring our go-to-market, accelerating traction, and iterating closely with our first customers.
The role
You'll join as one of our first engineers, working directly with the founders and the early team to build the core experience of our product from the ground up. As a founding engineer, you'll have end-to-end ownership across the stack — shaping our technical architecture, pushing the boundaries of agentic UX, and helping define the engineering culture of the company.
This is a foundational role: the systems, patterns, and product decisions you help create will become the backbone of the company as we scale.
On a typical day you might:
- Design and build our agentic platform — developing the workflow engine that orchestrates agents and sub-agents, and expanding the capabilities of our agent architecture.
- Create novel Human-in-the-Loop interactions that allow users to collaborate seamlessly with AI systems, balancing complex decision-making with a great product experience.
- Build the core platform infrastructure, including tooling for running, monitoring, and evaluating AI systems and agent workflows.
- Develop frontend & backend features that power the core product and support scalable, reliable agent execution.
- Collaborate closely with product and design to build a flexible design system that supports rich AI-native interactions across the product.
- You'll thrive in this role if you enjoy operating with high ownership, exploring ambiguous problems, and turning cutting-edge AI capabilities into intuitive, production-grade products.
What we’re looking for
Hard skills
- 5+ years of product / frontend / full-stack engineering experience in production environments, preferably at a fast-scaling startup or tech company
- Strong software engineering fundamentals – you write clean, maintainable code and care about architecture
- Master of agentic coding – you understand the fundamental shift software engineering is undergoing and routinely drive multiple claude code instances to maximise your efficiency
- Strong experience with frontend (e.g. React) & backend frameworks (e.g. Rails) to build end-to-end features using GraphQL APIs, SQL databases.
Mindset
- Builder mentality: You ship fast, iterate based on feedback, and don't let perfect be the enemy of good
- Product-minded: You think about customer impact and business value, not just technical elegance
