Founding Engineer (Full-Stack)

Job description

About the Role At UP.Labs, we partner with leading organizations to build entirely new software businesses from the ground up. This is not a traditional engineering role - you won’t be joining a single product or inheriting a defined roadmap. You’ll work across multiple ventures partnering with one of the world's leading industrial manufacturing companies, helping turn early concepts into real, working products that can stand on their own. As a Founding Engineer, you’ll operate in high-ambiguity environments where both the problem and solution are evolving. You’ll be responsible for taking ideas from initial concept through to working product and real-world validation. Owning decisions across the stack along the way. This is a hands-on role with meaningful ownership. Your work will directly shape product direction, technical foundations, and whether a venture gains traction. What You’ll Do: - Take concepts from zero to a working product and real-world validation - Own full-stack development: frontend, backend, APIs, and data layers - Shape product direction alongside venture leads and PMs, not just execute against specs - Design and build rapid validation loops to test assumptions...
