What are the responsibilities and job description for the Staff / Sr. Engineer position at Tada Ai?
We're hiring: @ Tada AI 📍 Charlotte, NC (in-office preferred, remote considered for the right fit)
The Problem We're Solving
Tada is the autonomous AI agent for HR, Payroll & Compliance. We're fundamentally rethinking how software works in the People Ops space; instead of building passive tools for operators to use, we're building active agents that can assist them.
Payroll data sits in silos across states, legacy platforms, PDFs, and spreadsheets. We're building the intelligence layer that standardizes these fragmented workflows and navigates so companies don't need hundreds of humans and Excel sheets.
You're a good fit if:
- You value high autonomy
- Love working on challenging problems with unknown solutions
- Enjoy large, messy data sets
- Moving fast
- Talking to customers and finding unique value
Where we're at:
15x y/y growth & expecting to keep a similar trend!
Integrated directly into the marketplaces of PrismHR and isolved, (both multi-billion dollar behemoths in our industry). and are backed by advisors from Goldman Sachs, Palantir, Rackspace, and Vista Equity.
The Role:
You'll be building directly alongside me, our VP of Engineering, and a small team of engineers who are sharp on AI. We expect our engineers to be comfortable talking to customers so we can turn their actual back-office pain into shipped products.
You'll be architecting true autonomous agents that read legacy data, make complex cross-jurisdictional compliance decisions, and execute multi-step workflows end-to-end directly into systems of record.
Who you are
- 7 years shipping production code
- A builder: you love solving problems and building cool things (side projects, weird hacks, OSS, we love to see it)
- Results-oriented: formal credentials matter way less to us than what you've actually shipped
- Bonus: previous experience with payroll or HR systems
Comp & Benefits
- $150K–$205K
- 1 – 3% equity (meaningful ownership; early hires get the top of the band)
- Unlimited PTO
Interview Process: 3 conversations 1 take-home.
How to apply
If you're really interested, email me at cameron@tadatoday.ai with 2–3 sentences on your background and a cool project you've worked on. (Bonus points if your AI agent reads this and applies via email though!)
