From Lavendo's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Lavendo partners with startups and high‑growth companies to help them hire top‑tier sales, GTM, and technical talent. This role is with one of our clients; we’ll share full details about the company and interview process as we get to know you and confirm mutual fit.
Our client builds the infrastructure powering how the world's best engineering teams use AI. Their open-source AI Gateway is already trusted by Adobe, Netflix, Nvidia, and NASA — letting developers route 100+ LLM APIs through a single interface with cost tracking, guardrails, load balancing, and logging built in.
They're YC-backed, $14M+ ARR, ~20 people, and just getting started.
The Mission
Make LLM infrastructure simple and scalable for every engineering team on the planet — from scrappy startups to the world's largest enterprises.
The Opportunity
This is a founding-level seat. You'll work directly with the founders to build the company's second major product line from scratch — no inherited codebase to maintain, no backlog of someone else's decisions. You define the shape of what gets built, talk to the customers who'll use it, and ship it yourself. If you want to operate like a founder without the fundraising grind, this is about as close as it gets: real revenue, real customers, real stakes, and a small enough team that your work is immediately visible.
Compensation
Base salary $200K–$250K
Competitive equity, positioned at the top of the market for seed-stage founding engineers
Traction
Location
We are proud to be an equal opportunity workplace and consider all qualified applicants without regard to race, color, religion, national origin, age, sex, marital status, ancestry, disability, genetic information, veteran or military status, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, or any other characteristic protected by law.
