The posting

Overview At Silkline, we have a bold mission - bring transparency and reliability to global supply chains. We are starting by building the modern operating system for procurement, helping businesses understand their supply networks and adapt to disruption.

Silkline is a seed-stage tech startup backed by top venture investors. This past year, we have grown our customer base 5x, and we are looking to grow rapidly. Join us on the ground floor as we scale our product offering and customer base.

The Founding Team Isaac Chambers is a 3x founder and started his career at Deloitte Consulting, focusing on supply chain & manufacturing operations for the aerospace & defense sector. Brent Shulman is a full-stack engineering leader and was previously an engineer at Palantir and Pave. While at Pave (where he joined as the 10th engineer), he founded, grew, and led the data integration team - scaling from 10 to thousands of customer connections.

The Opportunity As an early engineer, you will play a critical role in setting Silkline’s technical direction. You will be hands-on, building our early product and talking directly with our initial customers and users. From the start, it is critical that you can build a 0-1 product with great UI/UX. As we grow, you will own and lead the architectural roadmap that will lay the foundation for the Silkline platform. Your technical leadership will be a key factor in supporting and growing our engineering and product teams.

You need to be both strategic and tactical. We are seeking a builder to develop our product specs and front-end components into an enterprise-ready application. We are also looking for a self-starter, not afraid to get their hands dirty and rapidly iterate on prototypes early in the development lifecycle. An ability to handle ambiguity is a must.

We need a top-tier team to help build a platform that will fundamentally change and improve supply chain networks.

Looking back on your first 12 months at Silkline, you will have...Built and led the delivery of the early versions of the Silkline platform, spearheading pilot programs at initial customers Worked with the team to think through strategy and the evolution of the business Influenced new product and feature design while defining a long-term technical strategy aligned with industry best practices Designed and implemented platform integrations with outside APIs, partners, and cloud infrastructure Built something scrappily to show customer value, so that we have now earned the right to re-architect for scale.

What you bring to Silkline:5+ years building across front-end and back-end Experience with modern, open-source tech (Typescript, React, Next.js, GraphQL, Trigger.dev) Startup experience and/or agency experience (bonus if it is in supply chain). Early-stage product experience building from zero to one Ability to build out various API integrations with speed Experience working with non-technical stakeholders and users. Comfortable leading and managing an engineering team Ideal experience includes previous work with various ERP system API

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
