Careers

We're not hiring. But we're listening.

Right now EmployJoy is a small team focused on shipping. There are no open roles, no career page with a list of postings, no recruiters waiting to talk to you.

But if you've read what we're building and think you could help us — by writing code, designing the product, running the ops side, or in some way we haven't thought of yet — we'd still like to hear from you. The strongest people we've worked with came in through a project, a piece of work, or a conversation, not a job posting.

How we hire

We hire when we find the right people. Not when we have the budget.

The way most companies hire is broken — which we know, since fixing it for cleaning companies is literally the product. We try to practice what we sell to our customers.

  1. 01

    Small teams ship faster.

    Every person we add is a real cost — not just salary, but coordination, meetings, and compromise on speed. We hire when not hiring would slow us down more than the new person speeds us up.

  2. 02

    Generalists over specialists.

    At our stage, the same person ships the AI scoring model on Monday and writes the customer onboarding email on Friday. If you need a lane defined, we're not the right team yet.

  3. 03

    Work, then talk.

    Our hiring conversations usually start with a piece of work — a small paid project, a problem we're stuck on, a prototype. Résumés tell us almost nothing. Watching how someone thinks tells us everything.

If we were hiring

The kinds of people we'd add over the next year.

  • AI / ML engineer

    Someone who can read our scoring model, understand the data, and ship improvements end-to-end. Comfort with production ML, not just notebooks.

  • Founding designer

    Someone who treats the customer-facing surface (the magic-link page, the marketing site, the recruiter dashboard) as one cohesive product. Editorial taste, not template-driven.

  • Operations lead

    Someone who can own the curation step — reviewing AI shortlists before they reach clients, building the playbook, training the next ops hires. Cleaning industry experience is a plus, not required.

  • Full-stack engineer

    Someone who ships across our product and ML pipelines without needing tickets. Pragmatic over puristic.

If you want to talk

Send us your work, not your résumé.

Email us at wells@employjoy.ai. Tell us, in two paragraphs or fewer, what you've built recently and why EmployJoy. Link to a project, a piece of writing, a portfolio — whatever lets us see how you think.

We read every message. We don't respond to all of them — if we don't reply within two weeks, it's because we don't have a fit right now, not because we didn't look. We'll keep your message and reach out if something changes.
