About this role

The Mission

America's industrial base runs on systems built in the 1980s.

Billions of dollars in critical components (F-35 parts, industrial assemblies, electronics, bolts, and hoses) still move through email threads, excel sheets, and disconnected ERPs.

We're replacing that with an AI-native platform that makes defense, aerospace, and industrial supply-chain operations nearly autonomous. Faster quoting. Faster procurement. Full visibility. Real operational intelligence for the companies our nation depends on.

Quick Facts

  • YC W25 company. Top 5% growth in batch

  • Raised $10M+ on a hyper-growth trajectory.

  • Backed by Paul Graham, SV Angel, Pear VC, and CRV

  • Team of 17 Co-live in our Warsaw & SF Hacker Houses

  • 7 figure ARR transacting ~50M a week through our system

The Job

1. Go. Fly out and plant yourself inside the customer's operation. Weekdays are onsite (Wisconsin, New York, Miami, Los Angeles); weekends we regroup at the SF HQ to debrief and keep building.

2. Understand. Map how the company actually operates, from sales and supply chain teams to executives and CEOs. Learn the breakpoints choking their growth and speed.

3. Implement. Configure automations within SP Studio tooling so the platform accurately reflects the customer's needs. Build trust and confidence in SalesPatriot.

4. Iterate. Take full ownership of the customer's outcome. Keep finding and killing their most pressing problems, leading org-wide scaling, until SalesPatriot is the operating system their business runs on.

What We’re Looking For

  • Absolute grinder. Interested in co-living (though not required).

  • Comfortable with ambiguity and rapid change.

  • Track record of shipping fast.

  • Full-stack beyond code: comfortable jumping between frontend, backend, and organizational politics β€” earning trust with procurement specialists while navigating executive priorities and IT constraints.

  • Motivated by taking an unknown problem, sinking your teeth in, and coming up with a plan of attack.

  • Proficiency in TypeScript, JavaScript, and at least one frontend library (React, Svelte, Next etc).

  • Be ready to show us at least one full-stack project you've shipped (GitHub repo / web app / Loom demo video).

  • Knowledge of SQL databases, preferably Postgres.

  • Personable: clients trust you, like you, and look forward to your updates. You handle the conversation and the code.

  • Low ego, curiosity, and intellectual honesty β€” focused on outcomes, not "being right."
