About The Position

Onboarded is inviting builders to express interest in opportunities across its team rather than applying for one defined position. The company builds an API and infrastructure for workflows that require accuracy and accountability, including worker identity, work authorization, background checks, tax forms, union agreements, and credentials. Its platform includes a worker, job, client, and employer ontology; forms written as code; maintained policies; and automations that respond to changes in facts. The platform has made more than six million workers eligible for work and is used under other brands by large HR technology platforms. Onboarded is expanding this infrastructure to support AI agents and workflows beyond onboarding. The company shapes roles around candidates’ strengths. Potential areas include building the core engine and APIs, developing AI-assisted configuration tools, implementing customer compliance workflows, growing distribution partnerships, defining the company’s public narrative, and creating developer tools and resources. Team members are expected to work closely with customers and contribute directly to production outcomes. Onboarded describes itself as a small, remote-first startup where employees work alongside the founders and can shape the company. Applicants should send a short introduction and a resume, LinkedIn profile, or GitHub profile to [email protected] with “Open Role” as the subject. They should describe what they would build, something they have built and are proud of, and how they use AI tools; a cover letter is not requested.

Requirements

Use AI tools as a force multiplier in day-to-day work; this is described as non-negotiable.
Demonstrate a bias toward building and shipping tangible work.
Care about accuracy and understand the consequences of compliance work for workers.
Take ownership of outcomes rather than waiting for tasks to be assigned.
Work closely with customers and the people using the product.
Communicate plainly and directly.
Be willing to work without a narrowly defined role, lengthy ramp-up, or large-company structure.

Nice To Haves

Experience in HR technology, staffing, payroll, developer platforms, or employment compliance; this is a strong signal but not required.
High learning velocity.

Responsibilities

Extend the worker, job, client, and employer ontology, policy engine, and automations framework.
Make AI agents first-class callers through the company's APIs and MCP server.
Build an agent that translates policies, union contracts, and customer requests into configuration for human review and release.
Work with customers and partners to build compliance workflows as code.
Develop partnerships with hiring platforms, staffing systems, and HR software companies, and help convert partnerships into active customers.
Define and communicate the company's category through writing, shipping, filming, and teaching.
Build developer resources and tools, including a sandbox, quickstart, documentation, and open-source packages.
