OPEN ROLE / founding_engineer Founding Engineer
Own the agent, distributed systems, device infrastructure, telemetry, CLI, and product work behind Revyl’s mobile development platform.
Role specification 01 / DETAILS about_the_role About the role
Revyl is building AI-native mobile infrastructure. You’ll work across the systems that let AI agents observe screens, operate real phones, and explain whether an execution worked.
Testing is the first application. The underlying primitive is reliable agent interaction with real software, backed by complete runtime evidence.
what_you’d_work_on What you’d work on
- The AI agent loop: capture, ground, execute, and reflect reliably against live device screens.
- Distributed workflow orchestration for test execution across pools of devices.
- Android and iOS device infrastructure across emulators, simulators, real devices, streaming, and automation.
- The CLI that connects local development to cloud verification through uploads, live sessions, and CI.
- OpenTelemetry integration, trace correlation, and execution-debugging tools.
- Real-time execution UX through WebSocket streaming, live device views, and graph-based test visualization.
- Product surfaces across the CLI, web application, and CI integrations.
what_we’re_looking_for What we’re looking for
- High customer empathy when turning a user problem into a technical solution.
- Comfort with novel problems carrying real technical and product ambiguity.
- Experience building and scaling systems that run in production under real load.
- Practical experience with LLMs, AI infrastructure, or agent-based systems.
- A track record of high ownership and autonomous execution.
- Strong written and verbal communication.
experience_that_stands_out Experience that stands out
- Mobile build tooling with Swift, Kotlin, or Flutter.
- Mobile testing infrastructure, device automation, or mobile platform tooling.
- OpenTelemetry or distributed tracing.
- Workflow orchestration systems.
- CLI or developer tooling.
probably_not_a_fit_if Probably not a fit if
- You want work broken into well-scoped tickets.
- You’re uncomfortable making architectural decisions without full information.
- You prefer deep specialization in one layer over working across a full stack.
why_join Why join
- Work on hard technical problems across AI agents, distributed systems, and mobile device infrastructure.
- Shape technical and product direction from the ground floor.
- Operate with a flat hierarchy, high ownership, and full autonomy.
- Join a small, talent-dense founding team in San Francisco.
- Receive a competitive salary and equity package.
About Revyl 02 / COMPANY We are building the mobile development platform.
Revyl is the mobile development platform where teams and AI agents build, develop, test, and understand mobile applications against the real, running app.
Cloud compute and devices power the work; replayable evidence proves the result; Atlas turns every run into durable application context.
The founding team created DragonCrawl at Uber AI and left to commercialize their work. Revyl is backed by Felicis, General Catalyst, and Y Combinator, with support from the co-creator of OpenTelemetry and operators from Meta, Nvidia, and Uber.
