Form AI | Full-Stack AI Engineer (Contract) | REMOTE (US) / Austin | https://formai.build

Form is an AI fluency/integration startup for executives & their teams. We build AI applications tailored to how clients work, and need an engineer to do the building.

A typical engagement starts with a client describing a workflow eating their week. You scope alongside them, then build something that makes it disappear. Stack is whatever fits: TypeScript and Python, React or Next.js, Claude and other LLM APIs, integrations with the SaaS our clients use (Notion, Slack, Google Workspace). RAG, agents, prompt engineering, and evals when the work calls for them, not for show.

We're looking for someone who has shipped end-to-end as an early engineer somewhere small, has real opinions about LLM applications, and writes readable code. Comfort scoping with clients and communicating in writing is essential, since most of our work happens that way.

1099 fractional, paid monthly. 10-20 hrs/week, $75-150/hour. 40-hour monthly minimum, scaling with client demand. Potential to convert to a full-time role ($150k-$220k) as the practice grows.

Remote, Austin/US-based. To apply: https://formai.build/jobs or email maya@formai.build.

vvd | Design Engineer | Remote (work from anywhere) | Full-time | React, TypeScript, Next.js

https://vvd.world

We’re building tools for storytellers, worldbuilders, writers, and creators.

We’re looking for a Design Engineer who can design and build polished product experiences end-to-end. You should care deeply about taste, interaction, motion, and frontend craft, but also understand enough about APIs, auth, and data flow to avoid getting blocked.

We’re AI-native, but not trying to replace human creativity. We use tools like Cursor and Claude Code as leverage to move faster while keeping a high quality bar.

Strong fit if you’ve shipped real things, can go from rough idea to polished implementation without waiting for perfect specs, and have built interfaces that feel good, not just functional.

Apply: https://apply.workable.com/vvd/j/43FDC8C9AA/

Chestnut | Senior Product Engineer | SF or Seattle (Hybrid) | https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/Chestnut

I'm Nick, CTO & co-founder. We're Rippling, but for insurance carriers paying their sales force. Every policy sold triggers a chain of payouts across brokers, agents, and sub-agents. Today that runs on spreadsheets and legacy vendor systems and tomorrow they'll run on Chestnut. Nationwide and other major carriers have already made the switch.

Revenue is up 8x in the last year. We're backed by a16z. Founding team came out of leadership at Ethos (insuretech that recently IPO'd in January).

The work is state-heavy and correctness-critical: payouts that must reconcile with finance to the cent, dynamic agent hierarchies, retries, chargebacks, partial failures. These systems move real money and cannot drift.

You'll design schemas, build backend logic, ship UI, deploy, and own the sharp edges that show up with real enterprise customers.

Stack: Go, TypeScript/React, Postgres, Temporal, Kubernetes, AWS. We use AI aggressively and expect you to as well.

We're looking for 3–6 years on real product systems. You're thoughtful about invariants and failure modes.

Apply: https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/Chestnut

Saildrone | Multiple Roles | Onsite/Hybrid (US Only) | SF Bay Area (Alameda) | Full-Time | https://www.saildrone.com/

Saildrone is the world's leading operator of uncrewed surface vehicles (USVs), providing persistent in situ data from the most challenging ocean environments on Earth. Our fleet, ranging from the 23-foot Explorer to the brand-new 170-foot Spectre, is revolutionizing how we understand and secure our oceans. We work with global navies to deliver maritime domain awareness, partner with governments to map the seafloor in high-resolution, and collaborate with scientists to track climate change and hurricane intensification in real-time.

Or perhaps you read about our partnership with Meta, where we completed the first-of-its-kind autonomous deep-water cable survey[2]. You might have also seen our ongoing mission with NOAA to map 13,000 square miles of the Mariana Islands[3].

Whether we are hucking drones into Category 4 hurricanes or scaling up the production of the world’s largest autonomous wingsails, we are looking for people who want to build the future of maritime autonomy.

We're hiring for a breadth of different positions across our organization. In software, we're looking for folks in our Perception, Platform/Frontend, and Vehicle teams. Stacks vary, but we're looking primarily for backgrounds in C++ and/or JavaScript (Node, TypeScript, React). All software positions are hybrid roles based out of our HQ in Alameda, just a quick ferry ride across the Bay from San Francisco.

In addition to software, we are also actively hiring for roles in:

* Production & Manufacturing (Composite technicians, assembly, and electronics)

* Fleet Operations (Mission managers, vehicle pilots, etc.)

* Hardware Engineering (Mechanical, electrical, and systems)

MiLaboratories | Senior Software Engineer (Biologic Discovery) | Bilbao, Spain | ONSITE | VISA | RELOCATION

MiXCR is the standard for immune analysis, cited in thousands of papers. Platforma is the OS on top — bioinformatics as self-serve, interoperable "blocks" for biologic discovery.

5 of the top 10 pharma (Moderna, Pfizer, others) run discovery with Platforma today. Goal: 10 of 10 by year-end. Hiring 4–5 engineers in 90 days. Our tools are in the methods of approved cancer immunotherapies and COVID vaccines reaching millions. The next paper citing us could be the next drug.

We merged frontend, bioinformatics, and data into one team. AI killed the silo wall. Bioinformaticians who leaned into engineering and engineers who leaned into biology now ship at multiples.

WHAT YOU'D BUILD

- Discovery pipelines: raw sequences → pre-IND leads. Antibodies, biomarkers, workflows real scientists use.

- The SDK for comp scientists: TypeScript, Tengo (a Lua-like workflow DSL — yes, you'll learn it), Rust.

- The data layer: thousands of formats reduced to one. PFrames, Parquet, DataFusion, lazy columnar everything.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- Strong TS in 100k-line monorepos (pnpm, Turbo). Polars > pandas. Node ≥22.

- Bioinformatics exposure or appetite to learn it month one. We can teach VDJ recombination; not curiosity.

- Tolerance for sparse docs and niche DSLs. "Fix the SDK, don't work around it."

OFFER

- €90–120k base, real ESOP, ARR-tied bonus — when we grow, you grow, in cash, this year.

- Bizkaia Special Impatriate Regime: ~15–20% effective tax. Beats London / Berlin / Amsterdam net.

- Visa, relocation, soft-landing. No HR, no take-homes. Direct line to engineering.

- Bilbao: ocean, mountains, Michelin, low cost of living, highest quality of life. Onsite — context-sharing needs same room.

Email: stanp@milaboratories.com (CEO). Subject "HN", include GitHub. I reply personally. Tell me about a scientific CLI you wrapped, a plugin SDK you built, or a Polars query that survived 50M rows.
