Edra is solving one of the hardest problems in enterprise AI: AI models are generic but company processes are specific. We build AI agents that learn how processes actually run, and then run their operations.
We're a Series A startup, backed by Sequoia and other leading VC firms, and we're growing our team in New York and London. We're a deeply technical team of engineers, AI researchers, and strategists with a high bar for talent and a shared belief that exceptional people are the foundation of everything great we'll build.
The RoleWe're looking for Product Engineers who care deeply about the craft of building software: strong typing, thoughtful API design, robust data modeling, and systems that are a pleasure for other engineers to work with. As an early engineer at Edra, you'll shape not just the product but the engineering culture, tooling choices, and technical foundations the company is built on.
We work deliberately and deeply. There's no separation between "building it" and "shipping it"--you'll go from whiteboard to production and own the outcome. We'd rather build something thoughtfully than ship something fragile, and we treat velocity and quality as complementary, not competing.
What You'll DoBuild high-quality user-facing product experiences. You'll work primarily in TypeScript and React.
Contribute to frontend architecture decisions.
Contribute to the direction and design of our product. You should be comfortable working closely with design and able to reason clearly about interface decisions.
Own your work fully: gather context, manage dependencies, and drive tasks to completion without a product manager handing you tickets
Wear multiple hats when the work demands it--you might build a component library in the morning, pair with a designer in the afternoon, and trace a bug into the API layer before end of day
Collaborate with a cross-functional team of engineers and AI experts
Have direct influence on technical direction--choose tools, set patterns, and establish conventions the team will build on for years
Continuously improve your skills and share knowledge with the team
While this is a frontend-focused role, you'll be expected to understand the system well enough to debug backend issues you encounter in day-to-day development
Good visual and interaction judgment, even if you're not a designer by title
3+ years of experience in software engineering (but a computer science degree is not necessarily required)
A love of writing TypeScript to a genuinely high standard--well-modeled, well-typed, and well-documented. Strong typing feels like a superpower, not a chore
Experience building libraries, SDKs, or internal tooling that made other developers' lives easier (and you've enjoyed it)
You're at your best when you own a problem end to end--comfortable with ambiguity and energized by turning a vague problem into a well-scoped solution
You're drawn to building foundational systems from scratch--greenfield work where your decisions compound over time excites you
Don't meet all of the above? We'd still love to hear from you. We're looking for exceptional people with unique skills and interests, and we know that great people have different backgrounds and skillsets. If your primary interest is building RAG systems, working with LLMs, or doing applied ML, check out our AI Engineering role--it might be a better fit.
Bonus PointsWe use Next.js in production, and experience with it is highly welcome, but strong React fundamentals matter most.
Experience building APIs, libraries, or design systems
