Description For Backend Engineer

Pulley's mission is to make it easier for anyone to start a company. We believe that more startups should exist and that founder-led companies are more successful in the long term. With Pulley's cap table management tools, companies can better understand and optimize their equity for the long term.

We're a high-performing team looking for passionate, execution-focused, self-starters to help us build equity management tools for founders. Our platform is growing rapidly with over 3000 customers, including unicorns like Clubhouse, Birdies, and Coda - all within our first year of launch.

As a Senior Backend Engineer, you'll play a crucial role in shaping our products from conception to launch. You'll work with our modern tech stack (React frontend, Go backend) to build scalable systems that help companies manage their equity effectively.

Our culture emphasizes first principles thinking, rapid iteration, and bold honesty combined with aggressive consideration for teammates. We believe in breaking down problems to their basics, shipping quickly to learn from users, and maintaining high standards while supporting each other.

We're backed by top investors including Founders' Fund, Stripe, General Catalyst, and others. Our team of 65+ includes former Y Combinator founders, with our founder Yin Wu having previously sold her company to Microsoft.

This role offers competitive compensation ($130K-$220K), comprehensive benefits, and the opportunity to work on meaningful problems in the equity management space. If you're passionate about building tools that help startups succeed and want to join a team that values both technical excellence and cultural fit, we'd love to talk to you.
