About JustPark JustPark is the premier partner offering both B2B solutions for destinations and B2C services for drivers, giving us the best of both worlds. We simplify the entire parking experience. From venues and councils to private driveways, our platform makes it simple for drivers to find, book, and pay for parking-while empowering our operating partners to deliver exceptional parking experiences. We've always believed parking should be easier-from end to end. That's why we, two trailblazing companies-ParkHub and JustPark-have come together to make that vision a reality. ParkHub revolutionized event parking in the US; optimizing venue operations for a smoother, stress-free experience.

Translate complex AI and engineering concepts into clear commercial language for Product, Marketing, and Sales VP stakeholders. Build confidence in the client that &above can deliver - not just pitch. 3. Create a scalable, reusable POC framework After each engagement, produce a clean handover: a client-facing presentation of what was built, what shortcuts were taken, and what hardening would be required for production. Maintain and evolve a library of reusable repo templates, demo environments, and slide narratives so each POC builds on the last. Document technical shortcuts explicitly so they can be tracked and addressed in future delivery phases. Define and refine the repeatable process for scoping, building, and presenting a POC. 4. Stay at the frontier of AI and shape our offering Maintain a close watch on the AI landscape: new models, tools, frameworks, and use cases. Proactively suggest new POC formats, tooling improvements, and solution patterns that keep &above ahead of the market. Feed insights back into the strategy and sales teams to sharpen how we position our capabilities. 5. Be a reliable, autonomous operator Manage your own time and priorities across concurrent POC sprints with minimal overhead. Report clearly and consistently to the CTO on progress, blockers, and decisions throughout the week. Operate with the decisiveness and resourcefulness of a founder - you are comfortable with ambiguity and move fast. What we're looking for Must have Senior or lead-level engineering experience, with a proven track record of shipping production-quality work independently. Full-stack capability: strong React / TypeScript frontend fundamentals with solid backend experience (language is not a constraint). Practical, hands-on knowledge of AI application development: LLMs, RAG architectures, AI agents, and evaluation approaches. Excellent client-facing communication skills - comfortable in a room with VP-level stakeholders, able to translate technical depth into commercial clarity. A 50/50 builder-communicator profile: no trade-off between engineering quality and presentation quality. Demonstrable ability to ship fast and make pragmatic architectural decisions under time pressure. Comfortable working solo, managing time independently, and operating with minimal direction. Nice to have Previous founder experience, or a background operating as a one-person engineering function. Experience in a product studio, agency, or consultancy working across multiple clients and problem domains. Familiarity with a broad range of AI tooling, model providers, and deployment approaches. Experience building and presenting technical demos to non-technical enterprise audiences. Contribution to sales processes, technical proposals, or RFP responses. The candidate Why join them? This is a rare role for someone who wants to operate at the intersection of deep technical craft and commercial impact.
