- Own features end to end, including architecture, implementation, deployment, and ongoing maintenance.
What We're Looking For

- Experience designing complex relational data models and building reliable data pipelines.
- Demonstrated ownership of production applications, from initial development through long-term maintenance.
- Strong communication skills and experience working directly with nontechnical stakeholders.
- A hands-on, entrepreneurial mindset and comfort operating independently within a small team.
Bonus: Experience with AWS, financial reporting platforms, portfolio analytics, cap table management, or production LLM/AI applications.
