Alinea is an investing app for GenZs. We’re a Y Combinator backed start-up and have raised $2.1M for our seed round from top investors including Goodwater Capital and Harvard. Alinea is looking for a talented engineer to join our team for the summer and work directly with the founding team. We are looking for an ambitious, fast-moving, and creative individual who will address customer needs to build the best investing experience for the next generation. This may not be the right role for you if you are uncomfortable with any of the following:
- Trying to predict the customer's needs yourself
- Working on different parts of the stack
- A role that will push you to learn new skill sets constantly
Why should you join Alinea?
We’re changing the way the next generation invests their money. For all of history, the stock market has been centered around corporate profits and has been designed for a specific demographic. With Alinea, we want the next generation to invest responsibly in ideas, values and companies they believe in for the long-term.
We recently completed Y Combinator, raised our seed, and are quickly growing. We are looking to build out a team of passionate and driven individuals who want to make an impact. Come join us!
