Position Summary & Responsibilities

About Replay

At its core, Replay was founded to help founders. We started by supporting startups through shutting down, but we have since expanded into unlocking a new revenue stream for all types of businesses.

In 2025, we had a unique insight: the data every company generates each day through collaboration, communication, and building is some of the most valuable training data in the world. Public and synthetic data can only get frontier models so far, so the next generation of model progress depends on real, proprietary data grounded in how actual businesses operate. We are a primary source of it, partnering directly with the frontier AI labs building what comes next.

Why Join Replay Now

  • We have scaled from $0 to a multi-eight-figure run rate in a matter of months

  • We have raised from top-tier investors, including Floodgate, Afore, Ludlow, and Hustle Fund

  • We are small enough that you will carry outsized responsibility and grow as quickly as the company does

  • You will partner with and build for some of the fastest and most important companies in the world

  • You will help build a massive, category-defining business from the ground floor

The Role

The engineering work spans some of the messiest parts of enterprise data: getting internal work data out of the systems where it lives, helping companies navigate dissolution, and de-identifying sensitive datasets without destroying what makes them useful. Doing this well requires thoughtful product interfaces, long-running workflows, data and ML systems, evaluation, permissions, and reliable operations to work as one system.

You will build a high-agency engineering team, develop strong independent owners, and turn difficult customer and technical problems into trustworthy products and systems.

This is an opportunity to shape the team and its technical operating system, not inherit layers of established process. You will influence who we hire, how ownership is divided, which capabilities become durable infrastructure, how we evaluate quality, and how AI changes the way the team builds.
