We're a small team of serial (ex-YC) founders, CTOs, designers & IOI gold medalists set on being the first to make autonomous code generation work.
Our CLI tool has 50k GitHub stars (https://github.com/gpt-engineer-org/gpt-engineer) and our SaaS product is in closed beta with 25k on the waitlist. You'd be one of the first employees and have a big impact in shaping our product and company.
Building an AI Software Engineer is a hard problem. We believe that hiring the brightest and most ambitious minds in Europe is the way we make this work. We care deeply about building a great product. We want to work with people who are as ambitious and motivated about shipping fast as we are.
In particular, we're looking for:
- Product engineers: Product-minded full stack engineers to work on our core product.
- Generalists: Creative/algorithmic minds with a track record of solving difficult problems (in physics, computer science, mathematics).
- Technical ex-founders: To own large sets of problems, and push product engineering forward.
Our stack: FastAPI backend, Next.js (subscribed to edit events in application DB), Cloud Run, Fly.io, Supabase.

Design & product leader with 20 years experience. I've built, scaled and run design & product orgs, while remaining hands on in wide bodies of work. Often joining teams as the first designer/product head to scale from 0-1, and then 1-many.
Domain experience in E-commerce, SaaS, mobile apps, social networks, decentralisation, designer & developer tools, and have worked with YC companies in the past.
I'm a design & product leader with 20 years experience. As a fractional leader, I partner with founders & operators to build winning strategies, and execute against them.
Think of me like a Chief Product-Design Advisor on demand, hands on enough to deliver staff level deliverables too. I've often joined teams as the first designer/product head to scale from 0-1, and then 1-many.
I love figuring out what people want, and how to build it, helping with:
• Product management: Minimising risk, maximising value
• Product design: Research, UI, UX, Design systems
Hi - I'm Nad. I build winning design & product management strategies, and help execute against them. I love figuring out what people want, and how to build it.
With over 20 years cross-functional experience, think of me like a "full stack" Chief Product-Design Officer, on demand, ready to help your team. I work with founders and operators to:
- Reduce risk & generate value: Figuring out what people want, and how to build it. Finding growth levers to take new products from zero-to-one, or find consistent product growth.
- Elevate simply usable to irresistibly desirable: Not only solving UI/UX challenges, but using beauty, craft and aesthetics to build brand equity, signal trust, and build competitive advantages.
- Scale organisationally: Grow high performing environments, helping with hiring, onboarding and retention. Ensuring processes, playbooks and systems can scale.
- While remaining hands on: Oscillating between altitudes as a "player-coach" leader to get things done, and deliver results.
I'm generally partnering with:
- Founders: You're solving design & product challenges, or hiring, scaling and integrating teams. Design or product aren't your wheelhouse and you need help from someone who's done it before.
- Operators: You're scaling design or product at an org, seeking thought partnership or to lean on a couple of decades of experience (inc playbooks). Perhaps you're a first hire, manager, or head of.
If you need help with a design or product management challenge, get in touch. Even if you're not sure - reach out! I love speaking to founders anyway.
It's not clear if iMessage will interoperate via RCS, which is what would make blue/green bubbles less relevant. My assumption would be no as they'd cede moat, and there isn't much of a network effect for them to gain from.
> Because you understand rooms at a different conceptual level than me. And that by itself is a good thing. But the rest of us still needs more explanations/analogies.
Yep, you hit the nail on the head.
On the Matrix/spec side, we ensured Spaces are generically useful and flexible enough to organise rooms. However, in testing and research we found users have specific goals in mind when organising conversations, which the Element UX speaks to.
It's not dissimilar to where Direct Messages are today. Early thinking behind DMs in Matrix was that they're just rooms with few participants. In practise, there's a bunch of other semantics (e.g. room name/avatar exclusively informed by the other users profile, continual re-discovery of existing conversations when creating new ones, etc) which need to be met for them to be intuitively usable by more people.
I find Solid incredibly interesting academically, and watch it with interest, but I'm sadly skeptical that it'll find traction— it requires both substantial development resources (as apps need to be rewritten to its standards) and a change in consumer behaviour.
I'm reminded of this Steve Jobs response from WWDC 1997 [1]:
> One of the things I've always found is that you've got to start with the customer experience and work backwards for the technology. You can't start with the technology and try to figure out where you're going to try to sell it. And I made this mistake probably more than anybody else in this room. And I got the scar tissue to prove it.
The beauty of the implementation I described is that it could work with any existing (web) app with little-no development effort while leveraging affordance users already have from using Touch/Face ID to authenticate Keychain, Apple Pay etc.
Until a proposal like Solid is widespread, I'd love for a browser/password manager vendor I trust (for me, Mozilla or Apple) to integrate with a privacy-forward email vendor for unique email addresses to provide a less 'fingerprinted' approach to auth, useful today with all legacy (web) apps.
When I read the keynote highlights I assumed Apple were extending the existing (iCloud) Keychain/Safari integration to include username generation, and obfuscated email generation resolving to your iCloud account. Since they implemented 2FA codes auto filling in the QuickType bar in iOS 12, they could've extended this UX further, or used 'Siri suggestions' to complete email verification.
I assume they didn't take this approach as it's harder to present a consistent call to action to initiate sign up, but it seems like a missed opportunity to me.
Does anyone know of a password manager that allows you to generate unique email addresses as a part of the core UX?
Senior Designer (UI, UX, Front-End Development) and Team Lead with over a decade of experience.
I build value through design. I don’t just advocate the user, but also the team that has to build, support and scale the product. Learn more about my ethos & values at: https://nad.is/about
I’ve designed and developed for the web (desktop, mobile, responsive), native apps (desktop/mobile), games and VR/AR. View my portfolio at: https://nad.is/building
As a designer; as I’ve matured I’ve spent an increasing amount of time ‘measuring’ before ‘cutting’. Product-market fit is as important to me as pretty pixels.
I consider user research, clarifying technical requirements, benchmarking competitors, sketches, rapid prototyping, writing product specs etc. to be a part of the design process. Depending on the team and product I can also operate as a Product Manager/PM.
As a team lead I’ve hired, managed and mentored, often remotely.
Outside of core product design I also love product marketing; connecting the dots between users and business requirements. Some ways I’ve made that happen include:
* Designing for growth. Designed & implemented a viral mechanic for a pre-seed startup, increasing sign ups by a large factor. Shortly after the startup was accepted into YC.
* Data-driven design. Improving retention by measuring, tweaking and multivariate testing.
* Content marketing. Writing on-voice, on-product, on-market blog posts and newsletters that organically gain traction where they need to.
Above all, looking for great people to work with, but solving an interesting or fun problem doesn’t hurt either. ;)
Location: London, with regular travel to California (LA/SF).
