QA slows the world down. Flaky tests kill trust, stall releases, and bleed engineering velocity. Duku AI is ending that era. We're building autonomous agents that think like engineers: they run every critical user journey, catch failures before users do, and self-heal as the codebase evolves. Real AI teammates, not test scripts that break on impact. We're venture-backed and led by operators who've scaled Meta's testing infrastructure, launched Uber's global playbooks, and grew Deliveroo from zero to hypergrowth. We know what elite execution looks like and we're hunting for one more builder to help us rewrite the rules of software quality. What You'll Do Ship fast, learn faster: We deploy daily, not monthly Talk to users, shape the roadmap: Sit in the trenches with founders on calls that define what we build Train AI agents: Design LLM-powered testers that explore, learn, and adapt in real time Own the stack: Python, TypeScript, cloud infra, from commit to production Turn prototypes into production: Run real experiments on models, embeddings, and retrieval pipelines What We're Looking For Relentless drive: You execute fast, adapt faster Startup scar tissue: You've shipped product with no safety net Fluency with AI/LLMs: LangChain, vector stores, prompt engineering Product obsession: You care more about outcomes than outputs Ideal Background There's no perfect pedigree. We hire for mindset, not credentials. That said, you might have: Shipped AI features in prod Built something from 0 to 1 Thrived in chaos with high ownership Why This Matters Software is accelerating. QA hasn't kept up. Autonomous testing is inevitable, and we're building it. Five years from now, every high-velocity team will rely on AI agents like ours to ship faster, safer, and smarter. Join now, and help make that future real, before someone else does.

QA is breaking under the weight of modern software. Releases are faster, systems are more complex, and test suites are brittle, slow, and increasingly ignored. Duku AI is building autonomous testing agents that run real user journeys, adapt as code changes, and surface risk before customers do. This role sits at the centre of that mission. We're venture-backed and led by operators who've scaled Meta's testing infrastructure, launched Uber's global playbooks, and grew Deliveroo from zero to hypergrowth. We know what elite execution looks like and we're hunting for one more builder to help us rewrite the rules of software quality. This is not a support role. It is not a solutions engineer. It is not a ticket factory. This is a builder role for someone who wants to shape product by deploying it into the real world. What You'll Do Deploy Duku AI into live customer environments and make it work under real constraints Take ownership of complex product features end-to-end - from architecture and data modelling to beautiful and performant user interfaces Translate messy, real-world product and infrastructure problems into durable platform capabilities Push the boundaries of what's possible across the stack - improving developer experience, introducing new capabilities, and driving innovation Own systems end to end: from code and models to infra, observability, and production reliability Ship fast, measure impact, and iterate relentlessly Feed sharp, first-principles insight back into the core roadmap and product direction What We're Looking For Strong engineering judgement and an instinct for shipping Comfort operating without a playbook, process, or safety net Ability to move from prototype to production without hand-holding Fluency across backend systems, modern frontend, and cloud infrastructure Practical experience working with LLMs, agentic systems, or AI-driven workflows High ownership mentality: you see problems, you fix them Clear communication with technical and non-technical stakeholders Ideal Background There's no perfect pedigree. We hire for mindset, not credentials. That said, you might have: Built and shipped complex systems in early-stage startups Deployed AI or data-driven features into production environments Worked close to customers solving high-stakes technical problems Taken products from rough prototype to something people rely on daily Why This Matters Software velocity is accelerating. QA has not kept up. Autonomous testing is inevitable. Forward Deployed Engineers at Duku sit at the edge of that shift. You are where product, customer reality, and AI systems collide. What you learn and build directly shapes the platform and the category we are creating. Join now, and you help define how software gets tested for the next decade.
