Foundry for Good is building its in-house AI engineering team in the Philippines, and this is the founding cohort.

We run a portfolio of profitable, US-based, mission-driven companies, including Nexus Marketing and Double the Donation, serving nonprofits, education, healthcare, and associations. We're going AI-native across all of them, and we're hiring senior engineers to lead that work.

This is a fellowship, not an internship. We're hiring experienced people who already lead AI or engineering teams and don't want to leave a job they like to do frontier work. You join a small founding cohort part-time, build real production systems from week one, and the standouts finish with full-time leadership offers.

The structure

• 10–15 hours per week, over 12 weeks. Built to fit around a full-time job.

• Starts in early July 2026. We review applications on a rolling basis and move quickly.

• Remote, anywhere in the Philippines. Mostly on your own schedule, with some overlap with our US team.

• A small, selective founding cohort across the Foundry for Good portfolio.

• A direct path to full-time AI leadership roles for standouts.

What you'll do

• Build internal AI agents and automation used in production across our brands.

• Turn manual, repetitive workflows into reliable agents, and own their quality, cost, and reliability.

• Coach non-technical teams to work AI-native so the leverage compounds.

• Help set the standards, stack, and practices the full-time AI team will run on.

Who you are

• You build with LLMs and agents in production today, not in demos.

• You've shipped and owned real systems, including their reliability, cost, and quality.

• You currently lead or mentor engineers somewhere strong.

• You want frontier work and real ownership without quitting your job to get it.

Nice to have

• Experience standing up AI tooling or an AI function inside a company.

• A track record of leveling up non-technical teams on new tooling.

• A strong academic record from a top university.

• Work in or alongside mission-driven sectors (nonprofit, education, healthcare, associations).

How the process works
Short application, fast turnaround. A conversation with the founders and a real-world build discussion, not a take-home gauntlet. We're hiring a small group and moving quickly, so apply soon if the start date works for you.

If this would be your first AI project, this isn't the right round.
