ChessMovesAI is a small, remote-first team building a modern chess platform: real-time play, engine-grounded AI coaching, GM-style opponent prep, a master-games database, and more. Here's the shape of the team that gets us there.
We're players building for players. Every decision starts from the board and the person sitting at it.
Truth over hype. Our AI is engine-grounded and cites its sources — and so do we, internally.
Deep, careful work. We'd rather ship one excellent thing than five mediocre ones.
A small team on a big surface. You'll own outcomes end-to-end, from idea to production.
Open-source-friendly, transparent, low-ego. Async, written, and welcoming across time zones.
100% remote, always. Async-first, outcome-driven, no return-to-office asterisk.
Take the time you need to rest and play. We measure impact, not hours logged.
Early-team equity and a real say in what we build and where we go next.
Free premium, a learning budget, and time to actually get better at chess.
A relaxed 30 minutes on you, us, and whether the mission fits.
A deeper conversation about the craft and the problems you'd own.
A short take-home or live pairing on a real, chess-shaped problem.
Meet the people you'll build with — collaboration and depth.
Vision, values, and expectations with founding leadership.
