If you were building with AI back in 2024, people thought it was a crutch. Today, it’s the most in-demand skill in the startup world. I’ve been interviewing a lot lately, and there is a massive shift happening. Startups are desperate for developers who can just sit down and ship an MVP in a week using AI. But there is a huge disconnect in how these companies are hiring. Startups know exactly what they want, but they are doing a terrible job finding it. When you ignore the bad job descriptions and actually talk to the founders, the real requirements are simple: It is exhausting trying to filter through the noise on Indeed just to find a team that gets it. Startups are frustrated they can't find builders, and builders are frustrated they can't find these roles. So I decided to fix it. I built AI Native Builder. It’s a simple, curated job board just for this. No corporate red tape, no arbitrary degree requirements. Just jobs for people who build and ship with AI, placed where builders actually hang out. If you just want to build, stop looking at the standard job boards.
