As a founding engineer, you’ll have a large stake and responsibility in what we build next. We’re looking for someone who brings an ownership mentality to their craft and are hungry to build great products.
Some things you will do:
- Build from 0 to 1. Brainstorm, design, code and launch. Some product ideas on the map: Offering BNPL and pay-by-card on any invoice, React components that can be easily white labeled and customized, sample projects and videos that make it easy to get started with Mercoa, etc.
- Sales and Customer Support. We are strong believers that the best engineers get into the trenches with customers to solve problems. You would work closely with customers all the way from initial sales calls through implementation and go-live.
- Improving existing systems and tooling. As former bootstrappers, we plan to be lean and build resilient systems and automation to scale. Building great internal tools and processes as well as optimizing infrastructure is key to this vision.
What we’re looking for:
- You learn fast and embrace ambiguity - tackling difficult problems in new domains should be fun!
- You have experience working in a startup environment - balancing shipping quickly while maintaining quality and maintainability
- Experienced with Cloud platforms, REST APIs, Node.js, React, and SQL databases.
Nice to haves:
- You've worked on dev-tools or APIs and are involved in developer communities
- You have a background in Accounting or Finance, or have worked at a Fintech before
- You love talking to customers and solving there issues
- You want an opportunity to grow and become an engineering leader
If you don’t meet all these qualifications, please still reach out! We’re looking for exceptional folks no matter your specific background. Let us know what we’re missing out on :)
Team, Values & Benefits
Our team has worked across transformative tech companies like Gusto, Magento, Stripe, and Google. We’ve worked together for almost a decade, gone through YC, and scaled a bootstrapped company from 0 to 100k ARR.
We value folks who bring diverse and outside perspectives to solving problems, and shy away from the cookie-cutter and status seeking folks who plague larger companies.
We are building an inclusive and supportive culture that helps everyone reach and surpass their goals.
