Founding Engineer
Hybrid (Bengaluru)$30k - $60kFull-timePosted 2mo ago
About the role
Founding Engineer role at Lab0, a YC-backed startup building autonomous agents to implement enterprise software (SAP, Salesforce, NetSuite, D365) from discovery to go-live and ongoing maintenance.
Responsibilities
- Own difficult problems from prototype through production, including the agent loop, backend, and infrastructure.
- Build agent-facing CLIs, connectors, idempotent API wrappers, and browser automation for enterprise platforms.
- Improve tool design, context management, guardrails, and evaluation loops.
- Own deployments across SaaS, self-hosted, on-prem, and air-gapped environments, including model routing, IAM, and upgrades.
- Work directly with live customer implementations where agent actions have real consequences.
- Use agents to build agents. We expect you to use them heavily instead of defaulting to manual work.
Qualifications
- You are a strong generalist who has gone deep in backend engineering, infrastructure, ML systems, or another demanding technical area.
- You already use agents heavily and have clear opinions about harnesses, evaluation, and context engineering.
- When documentation is incomplete, you would rather inspect the network traffic than guess.
- Unfamiliar systems do not put you off. ABAP and X++ look like puzzles to solve.
- You think about injection, permissions, audit trails, and blast radius before something reaches production.
- You have high agency, low ego, and can work through the ambiguity of early-stage 0→1 development.
- Experience with SAP, Salesforce, NetSuite, D365, real-time voice systems, on-prem or air-gapped deployments, govtech, banking, defense, or founding and early-stage roles is a bonus.

About Lab0
Automated forward-deployed engineers (AI FDEs)
Enterprise software implementation is broken, and it has been for decades. Every rollout, whether it's a traditional ERP or a new AI system, requires months of manual integration, configuration, and tuning done by armies of system integrators and forward-deployed engineers. Lab0 builds agentic systems that automate this layer, compressing months-long implementations into weeks.
