Full Job Description

Slingshot AI Slingshot AI is the team behind Ash, the first AI designed for mental health. Our mission is to make support more accessible and help people change their lives in the ways they want. We’re building a world-class team by empowering individuals with the autonomy, flexibility, and support they need to do their best work. We dream big, iterate fast, and care deeply. If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you. Our team spans machine learning, product, engineering, conversational design, clinical, growth, and operations, with offices in both New York City and London. We're a well-funded Series A company, having raised $93M from Andreessen Horowitz, Radical Ventures, Forerunner Ventures, plus top-tier tech investors involved in ElevenLabs, Captions, Shopify, Plaid, Notion, Canva, Twitch, Airtable, and many others. THE ROLE We're looking for early-career engineers who are exceptional builders. You're a year or two into your first job, and you have evidence already that you're brilliant, that you build, and that you're on a fast growth trajectory. As a member of our platform team, you'll build tooling that enables our internal team and our collaborators to build our foundation model for psychology, and build Slingshot as an AI-native company. You'll learn fast and build constantly. Examples of things you may work on include our "devboxes" that enable people less familiar with the codebase (like designers) to ship for themselves; enabling our trust and safety team; working closely with our leadership team to build systems that manage the company. The Slingshot team consists entirely of experienced engineers, so you'll be joining as one of a few select early-career engineers. You'll thrive at Slingshot when you show up hungry, take ownership from day one, and treat every problem as yours to solve. You'll ship to real users in your first weeks, and grow faster here than you would anywhere else. We'll give you scope as fast as you can take it. Our tech stac
