Hyperbound (YC S23, Series A) needs a Engineer with something to prove

Source: Hacker News

We’re probably not the right fit for you

We’re in-person, five days a week. We move fast and expect a lot. You’ll ship something the night before a customer demos it to 20,000 sales reps at their SKO. You’ll watch a feature you built be the reason a customer signs an $800K contract. That kind of thing either sounds like your dream or your nightmare.

If it’s the former, that’s the job. If you’d rather have more structure and a clearer lane, this probably isn’t it.

Still here? Good.

What we’re building

Hyperbound is the Revenue Activation Platform—an agentic OS for sales that closes the loop between behavior, coaching, and execution. It’s not a tool that only watches what happened; it’s a system that changes what happens next and literally reshapes our customers’ sales orgs.

IBM, LinkedIn, Bloomberg, Supabase, Monday.com, Notion, and Vanta are just a few of our customers. They renew and expand. We 5×ed ARR last year, growing nearly 20 % month‑over‑month. We raised a $15 M Series A and closed a $1 M new ARR week to end the last quarter. Half of everything we’ve ever shipped happened in the last three months.

The role

Key responsibilities

• Build and deploy applications across frontend and backend using Next.js/React, Node.js/NestJS REST APIs, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and TypeScript
• Support AWS infrastructure, deployment strategies, and CI/CD pipelines

The team

My co‑founder and I are both engineers. This is an engineer‑driven company, and that shapes everything—how we prioritize, how we debate, what we respect.

The people we’ve hired are a little crazy: ex‑YC founders who wanted to build again, a founder who competed against us, decided we were doing it better, and joined, and engineers who left comfortable jobs because they had something to prove. Their drive inspires us every day.

After our Series A, we took the whole team to Bali. We work hard and celebrate properly.

And finally actual ownership

You deploy your own code. When something breaks, you fix the cause. When you see an architectural problem, you own the fix end‑to‑end. We don’t have a lot of process shielding you from responsibility or impact—that’s what makes a Hypernaut.

The equity reflects that. We believe in making early employees meaningfully wealthy, and there are real secondary opportunities as we grow.

Why join us

We’re creating a new category of sales‑performance tech that gives sales orgs an unfair advantage in observing and replicating top‑performer behaviors. We just closed $1 M in new ARR last month and are scaling from 15 to 30+ teammates by year‑end. You’ll have massive ownership over building the systems, processes, and operational backbone that allow us to scale without breaking.

You’ll work directly with the founders, partner with enterprise customers like LinkedIn, Monday.com, Autodesk, Vanta, Tipalti, and G2, and help us scale at lightning speed. From day 1 we expect you to hit the ground running.

We’re the unquestioned leaders in our space, and we need a world‑class operator to build the infrastructure that powers the next phase of growth.
