at Wordware
Full TimeThis is a full-time, in-person role based in San Francisco (Presidio) - we work from the office 5 days a week.
You must be based in the Bay Area or willing to relocate before starting.
We require US work authorisation, but are open to O-1 visa sponsorship for truly exceptional candidates.
Wordware is an IDE for building AI agents using natural language.
It looks and feels like Notion, but lets you design, test, and deploy AI systems in real time - without writing code.
Our mission is to bring structure and joy to human–AI collaboration.
We’re building a generational company that empowers the next billion knowledge workers to create with AI - not by writing code, but by expressing intent.
We’re backed by Spark Capital, Felicis, and Y Combinator ($30M seed round - the largest in YC history).
We work hard, move fast, and don’t take ourselves too seriously. It’s intense, but it’s also fun - at Wordware, you’ll do the best work of your life alongside people you genuinely like.
being real: something didn't work out? we get it. we're looking for founders who still have that fire and want to join something that's still early but some things are working
the actual opportunity: we've had 400k sign-ups and raised the biggest seed out of YC ($30m). we're defining a new category (natural language ai development) and need people who know what it takes to build something huge. you've been through the trenches - now help us navigate ours.
the bigger picture: we're not just talking to traditional developers. we're reaching the next 500 million people who will be "coding" with plain english - lawyers, designers, product managers, founders, and domain experts of all kinds. you know how hard this kind of opportunity is to find.
you probably:
ran a YC company (obviously)
know what worked and what didn't
still want to build something massive
can wear multiple hats
understand both technical and business sides
ps: we're backed by spark capital, felicis, and y combinator ($30m seed — biggest out of YC round) but we still work like a seed startup. you'll be one of the first people showing the world how to build with AI in plain english.
