Cheers

Founding Engineer

San Francisco

Full-time

Build the next generation of software for local businesses. Cheers is a YC-backed team building AI-powered software for local businesses, starting with how they get found and win customers. We're looking for an engineer who builds with Claude Code and Codex every day. Use AI to rethink the software local businesses rely on, and own what you build from the first prototype to production.

  • Build AI agents that help local businesses get found and win customers.
  • Ship features that make entire products in the space obsolete.
  • Go from an idea to something customers can use, fast.
  • Own the quality and reliability of what you ship. You've shipped production software and stayed responsible for it. You're comfortable with TypeScript, React, and Postgres, and can explain a difficult technical decision clearly.

You're deeply AI-pilled and fluent in Claude Code and Codex. You've built your workflow around coding agents because they let you explore ideas and ship useful software much faster. You know how to give them context and run work in parallel, while staying responsible for what reaches production. Full-time, in person in San Francisco. $125,000–$180,000 annual base salary and 1–3% equity. Apply with a few short answers sent directly to Dylan.
