Software Engineer (Full-Stack)

Repool • San Francisco, California, United States • 1d ago

Product-Oriented Full-Stack Engineer

Repool is a fintech software startup that is modernizing infrastructure for hedge funds. US hedge funds account for $3.5T of assets but rely upon antiquated services and technology from fractured service providers, and there's an enormous opportunity to challenge longstanding incumbents and gain significant market share.

Founded in 2021, Repool is a YC S21 alumnus with over $6.5M in funding from top firms like Canaan, Matrix, and Uncorrelated, as well as angel investors including founders from unicorns like Brex, Jeeves, Mercury, Flexport, Outschool, Pilot, and Forge.

The team currently has 10 employees, split between NYC and the Bay Area.

We're hiring for a product-oriented, full-stack engineer to join the team (currently 3 engineers). You'll own large portions of the product and help drive our roadmap. Our ideal candidate is thoughtful and product-driven; someone who wants to ship a lot of features, gain exposure to many areas of the business, and meaningfully impact the direction of the product.

The role will be local to the Bay Area and the team is in office generally 2 days a week.

Help establish and influence our engineering process, culture, systems, and codebase.
Ship exceptional and thoughtful features.
Help make strategic decisions about what to build, why, and when, as well as how to approach business challenges associated with early-stage startups.

Drive the engineering and product roadmaps based on customer feedback and thoughtful analysis.

The Right Candidate Will Have

Great communication and collaboration skills
A desire to be a part of and help build out great culture as the team grows
Experience with one or more common web application frameworks (Phoenix, Rails, Django, etc.)
Experience with at least one relational database system

What's Important To Us

Leaning in. Startups aren't where you go to make the absolute most money, have the best work-life balance, or the easiest role. That's not for everyone, but the worst situation is people who join startups wanting only the "upsides" and not the "downsides.". You should know that building a startup is hard, and while we aim to have work-life balance, this just isn't a 9-5 job, and it's also not a role where you can coast. Great companies that become unicorns universally have incredible early employees who leaned in and helped build the company. That said, we also believe in reasonable expectations.
Culture. Between the two of us, we've been at companies with great culture, okay culture, and bad culture, and while there's no one way to have an amazing culture, there are many ways to have bad cultures. We want Repool to be a transformative, inspiring, and enjoyable place to work, and we're really interested in hiring for other people who feel similarly.
Building great products and moving quickly. Our operating philosophy is to seek the truth, debate earnestly, and then - lastly, decide and go.
Becoming more formidable. Whether it's in 8 years or 2 years, we know it's unlikely that Repool is the last stop of your life and professional journey. We care deeply about supporting you in using Repool to get to whatever's next.
