Founding Software Engineer

About Olive

We’re building the fastest way for companies to create internal tools—just by describing what they need in natural language.

From sales dashboards to trust & safety workflows, internal tools are the operational backbone at modern companies. But building them is still slow, repetitive, and a drain on engineering time.

We’re changing that. Olive takes a prompt and creates full-stack, functional internal tools connected to company data in minutes. Our platform leverages LLMs and code generation to create rich, production-grade tools that unlock new levels of insight and execution.

We’ve raised a $2.1M seed round from incredible investors and angels and are now scaling our team.

This is an opportunity to build something difficult but game-changing, with speed and immense focus. If that excites you, please apply.
