If you're interested in joining my engineering team, fill in the application below. Can't wait to hop on a call and see if you would be a fit!

Boardy is an AI super-connector that helps ambitious professionals build a network that matters. We believe that talent and drive shouldn't be limited by who you know. In a world of LinkedIn spam and transactional networking, Boardy creates meaningful, warm introductions between people who should know each other. Through conversations with our voice, text, and email AI, we get to know our users' real situation, actual goals, and authentic selves. From there, we connect them with people who can genuinely help them grow.

We are backed by Creandum and are a well-funded seed-stage startup, having raised $11M to date. With our recent $8M raised by Boardy on his own!

Boardy is seeking an AI Software Engineer to join our small but mighty engineering team. Our stack is modern (TypeScript, Python, cutting-edge LLMs), our problems are novel (think autonomous AI agents, not CRUD apps), and we're tackling challenges most companies won't see for years. If you want to ship code that matters and see firsthand how venture-backed startups are built, this is your chance. You'll have a direct impact on our product and tech decisions from day one.

How We Work at Boardy: We believe time together in person is valuable and important and have a 5-day in office policy. We have a beautiful office in the Liberty Village WeWork that supports this collaboration.

What You’ll Be Doing:

- Building platform integrations that allow Boardy to operate where users already are (e.g., LinkedIn, WhatsApp, phone interactions)

- Engineering context systems that surface precise, relevant information at the right moment

- Designing memory systems that enable Boardy to understand, retain, and evolve user knowledge over time

- Improving matching algorithms that intelligently connect people based on goals, context, and intent

- Developing growth-focused features that drive adoption, engagement, and retention

- Identifying and owning high-impact technical initiatives that move the platform forward

What We’re Looking For:

Required Experience

- 1+ years of software engineering experience focused on machine learning systems (or relevant internships)

- Strong proficiency in TypeScript and Python

- Experience integrating with third-party APIs, tools, and external platforms

- Experience working with large language models, with fine-tuning as a bonus

- Experience with vector databases and search technologies such as Qdrant, Pinecone, Weaviate, or Elasticsearch

- Experience designing high-throughput, low-latency systems

- Experience processing and managing large-scale datasets (millions of records)

- Strong data preprocessing skills, including indexing, normalization, cleaning, and transformation

- Familiarity with backend technologies like NestJS, Redis, and message queues

Strongly Preferred

- Experience with SQL and ORMs; Prisma experience is a plus

- Hands-on experience with an ML framework like PyTorch, TensorFlow, or scikit-learn

- Understanding of state machines and user state management

- Comfortable using AI tools in your development workflow

- Experience with database query optimization and performance monitoring

- Ability to analyze data and measure feature impact

- Working knowledge of MCP and integrating tools and data through it

This role may not be a fit for you if:

- You are not ready for the occasional 60 hour work week right now.

- You are not ready to work 5 days a week in office, in Toronto

- You are not comfortable working without clear structure

- You prefer to stay in your lane rather than collaborate cross-functionally

- You don't feel a strong connection to Boardy's mission or the product we're building

About Boardy

What we offer:

- Competitive salary

- Meaningful equity stake in a high-growth AI company

- Medical, dental, and vision coverage from day

- Lead a critical technical area in a fast-growing, well-funded startup

- Build systems that process millions of user profiles and interactions

- Shape the technical direction of a rapidly growing company

- Direct impact on a product that creates meaningful professional connections

- Work on cutting-edge problems at the intersection of AI and large-scale matching.
