Technical Co-founder - AI for Automotive Retail

Atrium is an early-stage AI venture building an always-on agent workforce for automotive retail. The technical co-founder will own product and engineering, set technical direction, build the platform and integrations, and hire and lead the founding engineering team.

Responsibilities:

• Own the core architecture decision that shapes everything else — how the agents actually see and act in a dealer's world, and how one system stays coherent across a web app, a desktop app, our own browser, and mobile, without four separate products drifting apart
• Design the autonomy model: how an agent earns the right to act alone, and how that trust is never assumed
• Build the integration layer into a data ecosystem that won't always cooperate
• Build partnerships with ecosystem data providers and third-party systems to land unconventional integrations no standard API gets you
• Own unit economics as an architecture problem, not an afterthought — this many agents, across this many surfaces, has to add up
• Own the design and layering of the system for the dev team, and keep the build matched to what the business and sales side actually need
• Be the technical voice with dealers, design partners, and investors
• Hire and lead the founding engineering team
