The Opportunity
Mural Group is partnering with a Series A startup to hire the fourth engineer at its Austin HQ. Its first three engineers laid the backend foundation. Next, it needs a product engineer to ship customer-facing features fast, on web and mobile.
About the Company The US dental industry is worth more than $160B and still runs on fax machines and phone tag. This company is building the operating system for modern dental offices, starting with staffing and expanding into revenue cycle management, patient billing, and beyond. Since launching in summer 2023, the company has raised $11M, grown 5x YoY, expanded to all 50 states, and surpassed $80M in GMV.
About the Role
You'll sit with the operations team in Austin. There are no product managers: you'll shape what gets built alongside the founders, the ops team, and the engineering team in Europe.
The company is on the cutting edge of AI, both in its products and in how it builds them. The ideal person wants to move fast, work on the most innovative problems in the business, and take real ownership.
You'll own whole products end to end, from zero to live and scaling.
Day to day, you will:
Build across the stack: Go and TypeScript, MySQL, SQLC, buf.build, Temporal, React, and Next.js
Ship fast using Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, which are core to how the team works
Make technical and product decisions that directly affect growth and customer experience
What You Bring
Product orientation:
a track record of building and shipping customer-facing features from idea to production, not just contributing to existing codebases
Range across platforms:
comfortable working on different kinds of apps, including web and mobile
Go and/or TypeScript:
the company's main languages; strong experience in one or both is a big plus
Full stack and React proficiency:
this shouldn't be your first engineering role, but what you've built matters more than years on a resume
AI-native and bought in:
you already use Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or similar tools daily and would feel slower without them
Startup or big tech experience:
you know how to turn customer needs into requirements, then build features from them
Customer proximity:
you'd rather watch someone use your product and iterate on the spot than wait for a bug report
Speed with standards:
you ship fast and iterate on real feedback, without getting sloppy
Ownership:
you see problems and fix them without waiting for permission, and you're comfortable with ambiguity
Strong Pluses
Cross-platform mobile experience (React Native, Flutter, or similar)
Experience at a successful Series A, B, or C startup
Experience with Temporal
Working directly with founders or as a product engineer
A background in marketplace or healthcare tech
This Role Isn't for You If
You prefer large companies with defined processes and slow release cycles
You'd rather be heads-down in code than talking to customers and operators
You think AI coding tools are a gimmick or a crutch
You only want remote work; this role is in person in Austin
What's Offered
4th member of the Austin engineering team, with real influence on how it builds as it grows
No PMs between you and impact; you work directly with operations, customers, and founders
An AI-first engineering culture on the leading edge of new tools and workflows
Competitive salary plus significant equity
Regular collaboration with the founders and the European engineering team
About the Team The company is led by two co-founders, both former executives at a global tech company where they launched and scaled product lines worldwide. Both grew up in dental families and have deep industry connections. Early employees come from well-known tech and fintech companies and have built and scaled platforms from the ground up.
The team values people who take ownership without excuses, keep raising the bar, and see challenges through the eyes of customers and teammates.
