Why this grade This listing scored 52/100, which is a D. It lost the most ground on pay transparency. See the breakdown
- Freshness 15 / 15 How recently it was posted. Older postings are likelier to be filled or abandoned.
- Remote clarity 15 / 15 Whether "remote" means anywhere, or is quietly restricted to one country.
- Description depth 14 / 20 How much the posting actually says about the work, measured in characters of real text.
- Corroboration 5 / 10 Whether more than one source carries this listing.
- Role specificity 3 / 10 Whether the listing is tagged well enough to tell what the role actually is.
- Pay transparency 0 / 25 A published salary range, worth more than any other single factor because it is what a candidate cannot find out without applying.
Every figure above is arithmetic over the posting itself — its salary field, its text, its age, its tags and how many sources carry it. How the grades work →
This listing does not state a salary
$127k – $168k
That is the middle half of what comparable roles paid on this board over the last 90 days — 27 listings that did publish a figure, median $145k. It is not this employer's offer, and we have no idea what they pay. It is only what the rest of the market advertised.
hn-hiring
We're building Thunderbolt (https://github.com/thunderbird/thunderbolt). We're an 8-person and growing team within the ~60-person company behind Thunderbird, the open-source email client used by 20M+ people.
Thunderbolt is an open-source, cross-platform AI product built on the principle that people and organizations should be in control of their data, infrastructure, and model choices. It's moving from early development into enterprise use cases, and we need someone to own features end to end — concept through launch, adoption, and iteration — not just close tickets.
You'd work full-stack on AI-powered chat, search, research, workflow automation, admin, and integrations. We're looking for 10+ years of engineering experience at Staff scope, hands-on AI product work (LLMs, RAG, agents, retrieval, model/provider abstraction), and comfort in ambiguity — architecture and enterprise requirements are still being defined. Bonus: self-hosted or regulated deployments, EU AI Act / GDPR / SOC 2 familiarity.
Must reside in and have work authorization for the US or Canada. No sponsorship. We read every cover letter - please make it authentic.
