About Sauna by Wordware Every tool you use was built as an island, so you became the glue between them. You carry a name from Gmail into the CRM, a time from the CRM into Calendly, a note from Calendly into a doc. AI showed up and mostly became an eleventh window to paste into. Sauna is a hybrid of AI and software standing on one shared brain. It holds your context and hands you real software built on top of it. You talk to it like a chatbot and use what it builds like an app: software for the path you repeat, AI for the edge that never repeats. Keep it to yourself, or share the brain with your team. The clearest way to see it is a tool doing what its whole category cannot. An ordinary Calendly shows a stranger your free slots. Your Calendly writes the invite email itself, because it knows how the two of you know each other, and it offers a board member the slot over your gym block, because it knows which of your busy hours bend and for whom. Wordware is the team behind it, 15 people backed by Spark Capital, Felicis, and Y Combinator with a $30M seed, the largest in YC's history. We build from an office in the Presidio, fifty metres from Crissy Field beach, and we work absurdly hard because we can see and feel the outcome every day. Who We're Looking For We want people who walk in with enough context that onboarding takes days, not months. Specifically, if one of these is true, we want to talk: • You raised more than $5M as a founder • You got a product to $500k ARR or more • You were the main person responsible for a standout product at a bigger company (think: the person the team credits with actually shipping it) What You'd Actually Do Shape is flexible. We've hired past founders into engineering, product, and growth roles. Tell us where you're strongest and we'll build the scope around you. If you can describe the thing you'd own in your first 90 days, we can probably make it real. The Process: We keep our process simple. Exceptional candidates go from first touch to offer within 2 weeks. 1. Application: Submit your resume and answer a few short questions. 2. 15-minute intro call: Quick check to align on location, motivation, and logistics. If it's a go, we move fast from here. 3. Deep dive call: A longer conversation about what you built, the decisions behind it, and where you'd plug in at Wordware.
