Nowadays

Nowadays is the first AI platform for planning corporate events. For example, our AI can contact venues by email and phone to get availability, deal with back-and-forth negotiations, and present the best options.

We’ve proudly planned events ranging from Amazon’s intimate executive dinners in New York, to Quantstamp’s product launch in Turkey, to Google’s offsite at Universal. Within the first 6 months of launching, Nowadays has experienced exponential growth, growing from $0 to $2M in booked revenue from customers including Amazon, Google, and Notion.

Nowadays’ leadership team is comprised of talented MIT software engineering graduates as well as prestigious backgrounds including Google, Meta, Amazon, Doordash, and McKinsey.

At Nowadays, we are building an end-to-end platform for planning corporate events that combines modern web infrastructure with applied AI to solve real, high-stakes operational problems.

Our core stack includes:

Frontend: React, TypeScript, Next.js

Backend: Node.js and Python for APIs, background jobs, and data pipelines

Data: PostgreSQL with SQL-heavy workflows and analytics-driven product decisions

Infrastructure: Serverless and cloud-native architecture with modern CI/CD and production monitoring

AI: LLM-powered systems for information extraction, pricing intelligence, negotiation support, and decision workflows

Hard and interesting problems we are solving:

Turning unstructured inputs such as emails, PDFs, proposals, and contracts into clean, structured, decision-ready data

Building AI systems that planners trust through explainable outputs, human-in-the-loop workflows, and enterprise-grade reliability

Designing fast, intuitive UIs for complex financial and logistical data including rates, attrition, concessions, budgets, and timelines

Scaling from scrappy zero-to-one features to systems that support global enterprises planning hundreds of events per year

Making real-world coordination across venues, vendors, travel, budgets, and stakeholders feel as smooth as modern software

As a Founding Engineer, you will own systems end-to-end, from product design to architecture decisions to production deployment. You will help define our engineering culture, tooling, and technical roadmap while working directly with the founders to ship quickly and build software people rely on to bring teams together in real life.
