You’ll collaborate closely with product and engineering teams to deliver reliable, scalable solutions while contributing to technical decisions and continuous improvement of our platform.

About Us At HyperDev, we don’t believe AI replaces developers. We believe it should make them faster, clearer, and more human. Our platform turns natural language into real, working software while keeping people firmly in the loop. AI generates structure and logic; humans guide intent, judgement, and quality. The result is code that stays understandable, controllable, and owned by the people building it—not a black box you’re afraid to touch. HyperDev is a spin-out within the HyperionDev ecosystem, backed by a profitable global tech education company. Our founding team includes engineers who have worked on generative AI models at OpenAI and technical leaders behind award-winning software products. We’re building tools for developers who want leverage, not autopilot. If you care about craft as much as speed, and you want to shape how humans and AI build software together, you’ll feel at home here.
