About Us
At meetcara.ai, we're developing an AI sales agent that's changing how we do sales. We're seeking a founding fullstack engineer to help shape the next phase of our company after successfully taking our product from 0-1.

How We Work
We are a small team so every line of communication is short, we want to keep it that way. We move extremely fast and build our stack so we can keep moving fast (good DX and confidence to keep deploying).
