The magic of small teams can exist at any organization.
We started Span to address a pattern we'd all lived: as teams expand, context is buried under layers of meetings, tools, people and process. Things begin to stall in the "outer loops" like prioritization, allocation, collaboration, and management—areas where mistakes and inefficiencies are arguably more costly.
We are creating a new type of tool that delivers coherent and useful software engineering context for humans and agents alike, a tool that we believe will enable ownership, autonomy, and superhuman impact inside of an engineering organization.
We’re building a future where:
Engineering leaders can understand their most precious resource - team time - so that they’re able to invest intentionally, root out hidden costs of toil, and unlock the true potential of their team.
Everyone inside the organization can have an intuitive grasp of what’s happening so they’re empowered to make better decisions, operate confidently and deliver predictably.
The hours tied up in tagging, status reporting and coordination meetings are automated away so that people spend less time on busywork and more time on the real work.
In this role you’ll:
We’re looking for someone who can help with these types of example projects:
A product that root causes KTLO work and recommends solutions.
A software catalog that works for monoliths and that people actually want to use.
Help protect engineering focus time by systemically solving sources of distraction or mental load with AI.
What we're looking for:
Resourceful individuals who thrive in a high agency environment.
Have been a founder, seed-stage engineering hire, or have launched your own project before.
You have strong product sense and can prove it.
Have experience working with LLMs and agentic workflows.
