About Origami

We build vertical AI agents to do the research work of human sales reps.

About the role

Why Origami?

We build and deploy AI research agents that gather context for companies doing B2B sales in the same way their human sales reps would do. These agents are self-learning, fully automated, and scalable.

We serve some of the largest and most exciting companies across technology, healthcare, and manufacturing, from startups to enterprise.

We've scaled quickly, as the fastest growing company in our Y Combinator batch.

The Role

As one of our first engineering hires, you'll shape the very foundation of our company. This isn't your typical "implement these specs" kind of role: you will be building our product from the ground up, putting your fingerprints all over our tech stack, processes, and company DNA.


We don't have layers of management or rigid processes. You'll work directly with our killer team members to make big decisions and go 1 to 100. When something needs fixing, you'll spot it and fix it. When we need to figure out the right approach, you'll be a big proponent of the final decision.


This role comes with significant responsibilities, end result of the autonomy you'll have to execute on your vision. No one will be micromanaging your day. We're looking for someone who thrives when given space to solve problems their own way, with understanding of our organization’s priorities and goals.


For the right person, this role is rocket fuel for your career. As we grow, you'll have the chance to grow with us. Show us you can build and lead, and you will find yourself heading up entire areas of our business down the road.

The Person We're Looking For

  • Have 1–3 years of experience at a fast-growing B2B SaaS startup (ideally enterprise-facing, AI-adjacent)
  • Prefer deep work over constant chatter - more thoughtful than performative
  • Think in systems and care about doing things the right way
  • Are self-driven, highly detail-oriented, and always improving
  • Have worked on a dev team (4+ engineers) and understand team dynamics
  • Communicate clearly and listen well - personable without ego
  • Value substance over hype, team wins over personal recognition

Note: We care more about your building capabilities and shipping velocity than your formal background or credentials. Show us what you've built!
