Vendis

About Us:
Vendis is an AI-native B2B CRM redefining how sales teams work. We’re post-MVP, onboarding our first paying customers, and hiring employee. The founders (Thomas & Sebastian) are repeat founders/CTOs and active angel investors, shipping Rails since 2008 (Rails 2.1).
With Vendis, we’re modernizing CRM with natural inputs (voice/chat) and AI that drives data entry and admin to near-zero — so sales teams can actually sell. The opportunity is massive: every company that sells anything eventually needs a CRM.

Compensation:
Base Salary: €100,000–€130,000 (depending on experience and location).
We will conduct compensation reviews after funding rounds (angel/VC) to re-benchmark early hires to market.
What You’ll Do:
Design and scale a multi-tenant Rails app from day one.
Work across backend and product UI (Rails + Stimulus only, low-JS).
Keep the UI minimal — prioritize AI-magic over feature bloat.
Shape architecture, infrastructure, and product with the founders; ship fast to production.
Tech Stack:
Rails 8 · Hotwire (low-JS) · ViewComponents · Tailwind 4 · AWS · DynamoDB · OpenSearch · Vector Databases · LLM APIs (greenfield, zero legacy)
What You’ve Done:
5+ years shipping production-grade Rails applications.
Hands-on with at least one non-relational database and OpenSearch/Elasticsearch.
Practical experience integrating AI/LLM/RAG + tooling (e.g., Langfuse) and solid AWS tooling know-how.
You thrive in small, senior teams — high autonomy, high output.
Nice to Have:
Experience with multi-tenant SaaS architectures and tenancy isolation.
Experience with vector search and embedding pipelines.
Performance profiling, observability, and cost optimization on AWS.
Culture & How We Work:
Tiny senior A-team (3 engineers including founders).
Small by design: even with a huge market, we prefer a tight-knit team instead of headcount growth.
No managers, no titles — you code or you sell. We scale with code, AI automation, and distribution, not layers of management.
Values: Ownership · Pragmatism · Tempo · Kindness · No Ego. MINASWAN.
Remote-first/only, async work style; fast iteration; we live and breathe AI (including for coding — see Tobi Lüttke’s memo).
