Job Description
About Wonderly
Wonderly gives Main Street businesses the AI agents, capital, and growth team they need to scale, and charges nothing for any of it. We only get paid when our customers make real money. We’re here helping real small businesses make a life, pay for their children’s college tuition, and live the American dream. No surprise fees or gotchas.
We own the entire system of record, all business applications (we replace ServiceTitan, House Call Pro, RingCentral, Squarespace, Docusign, Square, and a dozen other applications), and dozens of AI agents ourselves embedded natively inside our business applications, with native data read & write access to our system of record. As a result, we can deploy dozens of production-ready AI Agents to our customers in under 30 minutes with no FDEs, no integrations, and no data cleaning work.
We are the most outcome driven business model in the business because we’ve proven our system and AI Agents work. We are not trying to sell our customers a dream - we deliver real revenue and profit to our customers. All of our software and AI Agents are free - we only charge a percent of revenue we deliver for our customers. Each of our 10+ core AI Agents help improve their revenue by 5-20%.
Wonderly already has PMF and has gone from 0 1 (we are happy to share more over a call), with very clear moat and deep industry knowledge that took a team of 70 hardcore A-players 18 months of stealth to build. We believe Wonderly has the potential to be a $100B - $1T outcome. The market is massive: home service businesses across North America (a $2T market). We’ve raised over $50M from top-tier investors, have $20M a year in free cashflow from another product line (Motion), and all that money gets pumped into Wonderly.
“AGI”
So you’ve been token maxxing and spending $4,000 a month on AI subscriptions. You’re vibe coding to the max, and sleeping barely 5 hours a day. You’ve embraced the polyphasic sleep cycle, so you can wake up in the middle of the night and press ‘Enter’ a couple times (I think that’s called harness engineering these days). And at the end of it, what exactly have you shipped? Have you made anyone’s life better?
If you are focused on technology purely for the sake of technology, then this is not the company for you. If you cannot tie your technology to real, obvious, business results, then this is not the company for you. In a world of slop factories, Wonderly had a radical idea: the purpose of software is to make someone’s life better. And in return, they pay you money.
Crazy, I know.
We are ruthlessly focused on helping small business owners in middle America put food on the table, send their children to college, and live the American Dream. And our customers love us for it.

Who You Are
You are a technologist at heart.
- Your dream vacation is tinkering and building something new. Every couple months you have a new side project. If you do not tinker, you cannot have taste.
- You are someone who keeps up with technology for fun. If I pulled up your youtube feed, it would be littered with tech talks.
- You explore new ways of building purely for the craft.
- You’re able to work startup hours because work is fun. This is the type of career someone would have to pay you to not do.
You’re someone who’s guided engineering orgs before, and you know the importance of a steady hand. That doesn’t mean you’re afraid to make big calls when necessary.
You’re someone who’s thought deeply about engineering strategy. You have strong opinions about the SDLC, and how it changes in the age of AI.
Above all, you’re deeply practical. The world is a messy place. You work with the world how it is, not how it should be.
The Role
Wonderly is building the first enterprise grade dark software factory. We have 50 internal tools (and growing) built this way, and we are rapidly improving our own development methods based on feedback from this development process. We are extremely reluctant to use external vendors; with our internal tools factory, we have replaced ~50 vendors (and more will be replaced soon). We do this for three main reasons:
- Margin
Software is entering a low-margin era. Most of our customers’ margins are only 30-40%, an…
