🧠 Our Engineering Philosophy

We have intentionally maintained a lean team by upholding an exceptionally high talent bar. We believe that elite engineers, when augmented by powerful AI agents, can achieve outcomes that were impossible unimaginable just a few years ago.

Because we prioritize quality over quantity, new hires will possess massive influence over the trajectory and evolution of the product.

🛠 Open Position: Software Engineer

  • Location: Toronto, ON (Full-time)
  • Scope: You will collaborate directly with the founders, contributing to Evidence Core and Evidence Studio. Your work will span from the underlying query engine to the agent harness.

⚙️ How We Build

We are currently evolving our development methodology. We are shifting away from traditional workflows toward a model where AI agents handle the bulk of the software lifecycle.

By automating the mundane, we empower our team to focus on the high-leverage aspects of engineering: Value=(Creativity+Product Thinking)×Judgment\text{Value} = (\text{Creativity} + \text{Product Thinking}) \times \text{Judgment}Value=(Creativity+Product Thinking)×Judgment

📜 Our Core Principles

  • Customer Obsession: We are intensely responsive; we don't stop until the user's problem is fully resolved.
  • Aesthetic Excellence: We obsess over the details to ensure the product is beautiful and fluid.
  • Bias for Action: We prioritize shipping functional tools into the hands of users quickly.
  • Deep Work: We protect the time and space necessary for intense focus.
  • Data-Driven: We instrument our systems and track key metrics to validate our direction.
  • Continuous Evolution: We expect every team member to actively refine our dev process.

Example of our mindset in code:

// We don't just ship features; we instrument them.
function deployFeature(feature) {
  if (feature.isBeautiful && feature.solvesCustomerPain) {
    trackMetric('user_success_rate');
    return shipToProduction(feature);
  }
}
