Job description

Founding Engineer (US)Build the AI platform that's rewriting a $50B industry

Salary range - $180-220k USD + Equity + Benefits

About HaastWe're building one of the first agentic systems for enterprise legal and compliance teams that actually automates their manual work. End-to-end. Delivering 80% faster compliance reviews and 4x productivity gains.

We recently closed a $12M USD Series A (Peak XV Partners, DST Global, Airtree) and are growing fast in the US;

building the infrastructure that will completely re-define how enterprises think about compliance.

Think Canva for design. Atlassian for projects. Haast for compliance.

The ProblemCompliance is a $50B global challenge. Enterprise legal and compliance teams spend a significant amount of time manually reviewing documents against policy, spotting regulatory risk, and signing off on content before go-to-market. It's painful and it's mission-critical.

We're building the infrastructure that makes this manageable at scale. You'll be working on systems that directly reduce risk and unlock productivity for some of the world's largest organisations.

The RoleAs our first US based Engineer;

you'll be the technicalbridge between our product vision and our customers' reality.

You're a full-stack engineer who thrives at the intersection of innovation and execution, building our platform while staying connected to the teams actually using it.

You'll split your time between heads-down building (shipping code that matters) and being engaged with customers, understanding their pain points firsthand, iterating on features in real-time, and using that feedback to shape our product direction.

You'll own end-to-end technical decisions: designing systems, shipping to production, and iterating based on direct customer interaction.

This is high-autonomy work. You'll collaborate directly with our founding team, move at startup velocity, and have genuine influence over both our architecture and product roadmap.

What You'll OwnDesign, architect, and ship full-stack features that directly solve our customers compliance challenges

Own the technical relationship with key customers;

implementing solutions,gathering requirements, and translating feedback into product improvements

Build scalable services and APIs that power our LLM compliance platform while keeping the customer experience front and center

Make high-impact technical decisions quickly, knowing that you'll be accountable to both our engineering standards and our customers

Challenge assumptions on "why" and "how", you'll directly influence what we build and how we build it

Shape our product roadmap and engineering practices as we scale from Series A to market leadership

Who We're Looking ForYou've built full-stack systems at meaningful scale;

you're equally comfortable architecting backend services and shipping frontend code that customers interact with daily

You're deep on one or more of: Go, Node.Js/TypeScript, or Python, and you're fluent enough across the stack to own features end-to-end

You understand APIs, distributed systems, and the tradeoffs between speed and reliability in production environments

You genuinely enjoy working with customers;

you're not just shipping features, you want to understand the human problem you're solving

You've shipped in fast-moving environments and understand what it takes to move quickly without breaking things

You're curious about how LLMs work and excited about building practical applications on top of them, not just the theory

Why Join HaastCompetitive benefits: PTO, Health, Dental, Vision, 401k

Real impact, day one: Your code runs inside the workflows of major global enterprises immediately. You're solving mission-critical compliance problems that directly reduce risk and unlock productivity.

Forward-deployed influence: You'll spend time with customers, understanding their pain points and having direct input into product decisions. Your customer insights will shape our roadmap.

Equity upside: We're building a generational company in a $50B market. You'll own a meaningful stake in that value creation and be part of the defines how Haast scales. We believe in sharing success with the people who build it.

Exceptional learning velocity: You'll learn more about scaling systems, working with customers, building products, and navigating the demands of a fast-growing startup in 12 months here than most roles offer in three years.

Engineering-driven culture: No red tape. We hire smart people and get out of their way. Your voice matters in how we build.

Flexibility and community: Fully remote across the US or Canada.

How to ApplyWe're looking for people who've shipped things they're proud of and want to work on a problem that genuinely matters.

Your CV

A brief note on this question: Tell us about a time you worked with customers to ship something they actually needed. What did it take to achieve the outcome?

No closing date. We review applications on a rolling basis.

At Haast, we believe bold ideas come from diverse perspectives. We're committed to building a team that reflects the world we work in. Even if you don't tick every box, we'd love to hear from you.
