Pluto is building the headless professional network for the AI era

We started with AI that understands professionals beyond their resumes. Over 30,000 professionals have spoken with it, and agents at 50+ companies, including Mercor, Warp, and David AI, use our data to hire. That business is at a $2.6M annualized revenue run rate.

Now we're making that capability available to everyone.

Professional networking is still painfully manual: search LinkedIn, sift through profiles, hunt for contact info, send cold messages, and hope someone replies. We've already automated that entire process for companies.

Next, we're building a network where anyone can simply tell an agent who they want to meet. It finds the right people, understands why they're relevant, and helps turn those searches into real connections.

The role

You'll work directly with the founders to build agents that search, reason, remember, and take action on behalf of users. The work spans conversational AI, large-scale people search, data infrastructure, and consumer product.

It's a true 0-to-1 build without starting from zero. You'll have existing technology, proprietary data, and a proven business underneath you.

What you'll do

Own major parts of the product end-to-end, from architecture to polished user experience
Build agents that understand intent, reason across complex information, and take real-world actions
Design scalable systems for people search, retrieval, and personalized recommendations
Work with founders and users to turn ambitious ideas into products people love
Make foundational technical decisions and set engineering practices as we scale
Shape the engineering culture and help hire the team

What we're looking for

Full-stack: strong TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, and PostgreSQL
AI engineering: production experience with LLMs, agents, tool calling, or AI workflows
Technical judgment: you design scalable systems and make pragmatic architecture calls
Ownership: you've shipped products end-to-end with minimal oversight
Startup mindset: you move fast, handle ambiguity well, and like working closely with founders

Bonus points

Voice AI or conversational agents
Search, recommendation systems, or data infrastructure
Early-stage or founding engineer experience
Cloud infrastructure, deployment, and production reliability

About Pluto

Resumes made careers readable. LinkedIn made them filterable. Pluto makes them searchable. Professionals spend 10 minutes talking to Pluto's voice agent about what they've done, what they're great at, and what they want next. Pluto turns that into a structured picture of who someone actually is, capturing the competency and intent that resumes and LinkedIn don't. When companies and AI agents go looking to hire, Pluto makes the right people discoverable. 27K+ professionals have shared their career context with Pluto, and 50+ companies, including Mercor, Warp, and Rho, use it to find and reach the right people. Long-term, we're building the LinkedIn for agents.
