Founding Engineer
About the role
About Haast
Building one of the first agentic systems for enterprise legal and compliance teams that automates manual work end-to-end. The platform delivers 80% faster compliance reviews and 4x productivity gains.
Recently closed a $12M USD Series A (Peak XV Partners, DST Global, Airtree) and growing fast in the US, building infrastructure that will redefine how enterprises approach compliance.
The Problem
Compliance is a $50B global challenge. Enterprise legal and compliance teams spend significant time manually reviewing documents against policy, spotting regulatory risk, and signing off on content before go-to-market. It's painful and mission-critical.
The Role
As the first US-based Engineer, you'll be the technical bridge between product vision and customer reality. You're a full-stack engineer who thrives at the intersection of innovation and execution.
You'll split time between heads-down building (shipping code that matters) and engaging with customers—understanding pain points firsthand, iterating on features in real-time, and shaping product direction through direct feedback.
You'll own end-to-end technical decisions: designing systems, shipping to production, and iterating based on customer interaction. This is high-autonomy work with direct collaboration with the founding team at startup velocity.
What You'll Own
- Design, architect, and ship full-stack features that directly solve 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 the LLM compliance platform while keeping customer experience front and center
- Make high-impact technical decisions quickly, accountable to engineering standards and customer needs
- Challenge assumptions and directly influence what gets built and how
- Shape product roadmap and engineering practices as we scale from Series A to market leadership
Who We're Looking For
- Built full-stack systems at meaningful scale; equally comfortable architecting backend services and shipping frontend code customers interact with daily
- Deep expertise in one or more of: Go, Node.js/TypeScript, or Python
