JOB OVERVIEW

About the Role: We are looking for a Technical Right Hand to work directly with the founder. We don't want a standard developer who writes every line of code from scratch; we want a "Vibe Coder"—someone who can orchestrate AI tools (Claude, Cursor, Replit) to build internal tools 10x faster than traditional methods.

We operate on the ---------- Principle (from Dan Martell):

10% (Me): I give you the vision, the concept, and the "why."

80% (You): You use AI, APIs, and your coding skills to build the prototype and core functionality.

10% (Me): We review it together, I give final tweaks, and we ship it.

The "Must Haves":

Coding Foundation: You must be proficient in Python or JavaScript. AI will generate 90% of the code, but you must have the expertise to debug the 10% that breaks.

MCP & API Mastery: You must be familiar with Model Context Protocols (MCP). If you don't know what this is or how it connects data to LLMs, this role isn't for you.

API Integration: Proven experience connecting tools like Pipedrive, Trello, and Jobber via REST APIs.

Proactive Communcation: We will work asynchronously, but we will have 1-2 sync sessions per week (likely using Roam/ ---------- ). You must be able to "work out loud" and document as you build.

Tech Stack:

Languages: Python / Node.js

AI Tools: Claude Projects, OpenAI API, Cursor (IDE), Gemini

Platforms: Pipedrive, Jobber, Trello

How to Apply: Please reply with the subject line " ---------- Engineer" and answer these Four questions:

Explain a time you used an LLM to write code, but it failed. How did you debug the code manually?

What is your understanding of Model Context Protocols (MCP), and how would you use one to connect our CRM to ChatGPT?

Are you available for a 2-hour sync overlap 1-2 times a week? (Please specify your timezone).

Please make a 3 minute screencast showing a tool you've recently created
