Overview: The hiring process today pulls talent teams in too many directions, leaving them unable to fully engage with candidates or connect with enough of them. Much of their time is spent on administrative backend tasks, rather than focusing on what they do best: building relationships and identifying top talent.
This inefficiency affects everyone—companies, candidates, and recruiters themselves, who know they could make a greater impact with more time and focus.
We built Elly because we believe recruiters should focus on recruiting, not transcribing. Every recruiter deserves the support of an AI-driven assistant to enhance, not replace, their conversations. We're building a platform that streamlines recruiting workflows and is on its way to becoming an essential tool for talent acquisition teams and search firms. Our beta product is already in the hands of hundreds of recruiters, showing strong adoption, a promising product-led growth (PLG) motion, and solid retention just months into launch.
We’re seeking a product-driven, founding engineer to join our team. As a core member of our team, you will not only bring a track record of engineering expertise, but will also be a driver of projects and features that build into our product strategy and vision, finding and executing opportunities that have not explicitly been “assigned”.
As one of our founding engineer, you'll help us deliver best-in-class software at start-up speed. With a test-and-learn mindset, you’ll architect solutions that are continuously improved through direct user feedback. Working directly with the founder, you'll lead our engineering efforts to develop software that improves the hiring process for candidates, recruiters, and hiring managers.
Our Tech Stack: Next.js (Typescript), OpenNext, AWS (CDK), DynamoDB, Lambda, S3, EventBridge, CloudWatch
This role is based in NYC and is hybrid in-office/remote.
