Ultra helps people navigate the most complex problems in their life: things like how to teach their kids, how to get into college, how to pick and break into a career.

Our first vertical is college admissions. We are backed by General Catalyst and amazing angels from Uber and Lyft.

Looking for a technical dictator who spends a lot of time thinking through ontologies and system design, but realizes that the product delivering value to users is ultimately what matters.

Should be interested in solving these technical problems:

1. Passive content creation: how can we turn raw data like screenshots of someone working into artifacts for teams and promotional purposes.
2. Agentic permissioning for social: if AI is creating content for you, how can you automatically decide who sees what? What should the public see? What should teammates see?
3. Simulating humans: given enough data about someone, how can we predict future behavior faithfully such that we can intervene and help them change their behavior. How can we make use of non-public data to make this actually accurate.

Should be a great mentor and have the mindset that hiring and therefore work trialling new engineers is the highest leverage use of time that will compound long term - being capable of being a hero IC and doing so in short sprints may be necessary, but should not be the default mindset. Experience training high slope talent is critical.

This position would receive a co-founder title and have significant equity.
