How to Stand Out
Join us in building the future of payments and marketing, one text at a time.
We're two former leads from the PayPal Checkout team (engineering & product), we just got pre-seed funding for our new startup which we launched earlier this year, and we're looking for an engineer to join us!
Our goal is simple: to make it possible to use your phone number to pay, anywhere and everywhere, with zero friction. We have a ton of cool ways to make that work, and a bunch of brands already using our platform.
Email: [email protected]
Our stack:
Front-end: JS/TS/React
API: Node/TS/Postgres/Redis
Services: Shopify/Twilio/PayPal/Stripe/Authorize.net
What we do: payments, vaulting, automated conversations, and merchant-facing dashboards. Plus a whole load of interesting things in-between.
Most important skill: be able to communicate well, and learn quickly. Doesn't matter if you haven't used every technology listed above, so long as you're a fast learner and happy to jump quickly into new things.
Experience level: any. So long as you can code, if we like you and you're a good fit, we'll find a role for you.
Expectations: it's a startup, and we just got accepted into YCombinator 2023. So it will be busy, there's no avoiding that. But we want to create a great engineering culture that fosters innovation, learning, and mentorship. We want to teach, and we want to learn from you too.
Location: we're both CA (bay area), open to remote anywhere in US, may be able to make non-US work with some kind of contracting role but priority given to US-based folk.
Salary: completely dependent on experience and skill. Equity on the table. (Apologies for being vague here. Our plan is to create the role and compensation around the candidate we think is the best fit)
