About Buzzed

Buzzed Technologies builds custom AI and software embedded in how companies actually operate. We automate intake, internal workflows, LLM pipelines, and production systems for businesses that want infrastructure they own, not another subscription.

How we deliver is simple. A Hunter taps their network and puts the right company in front of us. A Sponge absorbs that business until they know it cold and becomes the single context source for the build. A Full Stack Engineer ships the product using AI-native workflows, working from the Sponge's specs instead of going back to the client.

The problems are high-stakes, data-dense, and unforgiving. Clients depend on what we ship. When something breaks, it breaks in production, not in a slide deck.

We hire people with high agency and high urgency. We look for slope over intercept. We care less about where you trained and more about what you have built. At Buzzed, everyone owns a distinct part of the loop and makes consequential decisions that shape the outcome.

If you want to build systems that directly shape how companies run, Buzzed is the place to do it.

About the role

Buzzed is looking for a Sponge to absorb a client's business until you know it cold. You might spend a few hours a week with them, but by the end you understand how the company runs in full: workflows, politics, edge cases, stakeholders, and what actually matters.

You become the context source. Engineers do not go back to the client with questions. They come to you. You write the specs, diagnose what is broken, translate business reality into buildable plans, and stay the owner of the client relationship through delivery.

This is not a traditional product manager role and it is not pure consulting. You do more than speccing and checking boxes. You are the communication layer between the client and the engineer, the person who holds trust on one side and clarity on the other.

The loop looks like this: a Hunter puts the company in front of Buzzed, you take the intro and absorb the business, our Full Stack Engineer builds from your specs and context. Backgrounds that tend to be a strong fit: solutions or consulting where you owned messy discovery, ops or product roles where you became the person everyone asked, or generalists who learn a new industry fast and retain every detail.

What you'll do

  • Meet with clients regularly, often just a few hours a week, until you understand the business end to end.
  • Absorb every bit of context: how work actually flows, where the drag is, who decides what, and what good looks like on the ground.
  • Write specs, user stories, and handoff docs that engineers can build from without going back to the client.
  • Diagnose the real problem when the client says "we need AI" but cannot articulate where the pain lives.
  • Answer engineer questions, flag drift, QA from the client's perspective, and keep delivery aligned with what the business actually needs.
  • Own the client relationship through the build. You are the face of Buzzed on their side of the table.

What you'll need

  • You absorb context fast and retain it. Details do not slip through you.
  • Clear writing. A spec you wrote should be the only document an engineer needs.
  • Ability to hold a room with a skeptical operator and translate that reality for engineers without losing either side.
  • Diagnostic instinct. You figure out what is actually broken, not just what the client says they want.
  • Comfort owning the relationship so engineers can stay heads-down and AI-native in the build.
  • Prior experience in consulting, solutions, ops, product, or client success where you became the person with the answers.

Nice to haves

  • Experience taking a Hunter intro or vague mandate and turning it into a concrete plan the team could execute.
  • Familiarity with AI and automation enough to know what is realistic to promise without overselling.
  • Track record as the single context source on a project where engineers did not need direct client access.
  • Early-team or high-growth startup experience where speed, ambiguity, and ownership were the default.

Compensation

$40–$70 / hour.

Hourly compensation for absorbing client businesses, writing specs, diagnosing problems, and owning the relationship through delivery. Where you land in the range depends on experience and how completely you can own the context layer from intro through launch.

  • Hourly, client-facing contractor role
  • Remote and flexible: work from wherever you operate best
  • A few hours per week with each client; depth of knowledge matters more than hours on calendar
  • Rate reflects experience and how independently you can own the full context layer
