Founding Engineer

Job Description

Founding Engineer Wanted (ESOPs + Revenue Share, Lower Salary, Remote/WFH) | Ekam Apps We provide AI Services and are building micro-SaaS apps powered by AI Agents at Ekam Apps, and looking for a true founding engineer to join our early team. This is not your standard job offer, read carefully. What’s on the table ESOPs & Revenue Sharing: Get real skin in the game, not just a fixed salary. Base salary (transparent: lower than market rate, but livable): upside is in equity, revenue share, and the opportunity to build something meaningful from the ground up. You will be the goto Tech Person in the Team. Potential to become CTO: If you prove yourself, you’ll have a clear path to the CTO role. Fully Remote (WFH) to start: We care about results more than anything else. Gurugram location a plus: If you’re in Gurgaon, we can collaborate in person and build faster. Who you are 3+ years experience (I have 19 years myself, so anywhere up to 20 works, what matters is your ability to learn and execute). AI and cursor/windsurf by our side: As long as you’re a good developer in any technology and a quick learner, we are good. Startup-ready: You thrive when things move fast, ambiguity is normal, and real ownership is the default. A doer: You don’t wait for instructions; you take initiative, lead, and hustle to get things done. Ready for full responsibility: If you prefer the safety of a large team, this isn’t the place. Passionate about building: You care about creating real products, not just shipping code. People skills: You’ll be managing and working with a small remote team (4 as of now, we don’t plan to grow beyond 10 in the near term), so being able to collaborate and communicate well is a must. Committed: If you can’t see yourself sticking around for at least 2 years, you’ll be doing injustice to your own career and to Ekam. Recruitment Process: If shortlisted on your resume/linked profile, 3 rounds of Interviews with Programming/System Design Questions. What we work on AI Agent-powered SaaS products AI automation & integrations for businesses Tools & frameworks: AI: We work on different No-code: (think n8n, RelevanceAI, Make.com), Low-code (think Crew AI, Langgraph, Pydantic) and building entirely in code. Application stack: Node.js, Python, React, Next.js, Flutter (as needed) Apply If you’re passionate about building and learning, ready to bet on yourself P.S. We value mindset and hustle more than any checklist of skills. Show more Show less
