About Amodal

Amodal is an open-source (MIT-licensed) AI agent runtime. Developers connect their existing systems (Salesforce, Slack, Datadog, Shopify, and others), write skills in markdown that define how an agent should reason about their domain, and deploy agents that take real action.

The runtime is open source with real adoption. The marketplace, hosted platform, and admin tools are the commercial product.

About the Role

We're hiring our first developer-facing role. You'll build with the product, record the process, publish working packages to the marketplace, and help developers understand what Amodal can do. You'll report directly to the CEO.

The founding team has previously built and sold companies, with over $100M raised across prior ventures. AI agent infrastructure is early and moving fast — this role puts you at the center of how developers actually build and deploy agents.

What You'll Do

• Build demos. The core of the job. Two to three short videos per week (3–8 minutes): screen recordings with voiceover showing real workflows. Connect a system, write a skill, query the agent, show the result. Clarity and honesty matter more than production value.
• Build and publish marketplace packages. Connect systems like Stripe, HubSpot, Jira, and PagerDuty; write skills that encode real domain knowledge; publish them to the registry. Each package is also a demo. Each demo drives adoption.
• Own distribution. Post where developers are: Twitter/X, YouTube, LinkedIn, Reddit, Hacker News. You're responsible for getting the work seen, not just creation.
• Engage the community. Monitor GitHub issues, answer questions, and review marketplace submissions as the ecosystem grows. Know who the interesting contributors are and amplify their work.
• Attend the occasional conference. Talks, workshops, booths, roughly 10% of the role.

What We're Looking For

• Comfortable enough with code to build with developer tools: terminal, API docs, debugging. You don't need to be a senior engineer, but you need to build real things.
• Able to explain technical work clearly on camera or in a screen recording.
• Biased toward shipping. Three rough demos this week beats one polished one next month.
• Familiar with the AI/developer tools landscape (AI agents, LLMs, developer workflows) and have opinions about it.
• Self-directed. We'll give you the product and target integrations; you decide what to build and what angle to take.

Nice to Have

Experience with AI APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, LangChain, etc.), a YouTube channel or technical blog, npm packages or published open-source work, prior devrel/developer advocacy experience, experience with short-form video creation.

Not Important

CS degree, years of experience, follower count, job titles.

Compensation

Contract phase (90 days): $7,500/month (1099), with a bonus per package reaching 100+ installs. 30-day check-in; 60-day conversion decision.

Full-time conversion: $120–140K base + equity.
