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 Problem:
Compliance 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 Role:
- As our first US based Engineer; you'll be the technical bridge 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 itShape 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
