About the Role
This is a founding engineering role at a Y Combinator–backed wearable AI startup building a consumer device that reads and interprets emotional states in real time. You'll own the companion iOS app end-to-end — the primary touchpoint between sophisticated AI inference technology and the people who use it. As an early team member, you'll have real ownership and a direct hand in shaping the product as the company scales.
What You'll Do
- Own the companion iOS app from architecture through deployment and ongoing iteration.
- Translate emotional-state outputs from an AI inference model into intuitive, meaningful app interfaces.
- Build and ship a polished, consumer-grade mobile experience that meets high product and UX standards.
