Founding Fullstack engineer

At Airframe, our mission is to deliver AI software intelligence for today’s decisions that shape tomorrow’s advantage.

AI is changing how we all work. Every team, from finance to marketing, is being reshaped by new tools arriving faster than anyone can keep up with. The leaders who figure out which AI software to adopt will outperform and outpace those who wait. But the path isn’t obvious. As the pace of change accelerates, choosing the right software has become harder – and more critical – than ever. Today’s analyst firms are slow, review sites are pay-to-play, and vendor websites all sound the same. At Airframe, we believe leaders deserve better.

Come build the future of AI decisions – and empower the leaders who make them.
Airframe is a team of experienced founders, builders, designers and investors, united by a shared belief that: today’s AI decisions will shape tomorrow’s leaders, and the future of AI is built better, together. If you’re excited about being at the forefront of AI transformation, tackling meaningful challenges, and joining a strong, growing team, let’s chat.
