Description du poste

About Us

We invented a new type of credit card backed by assets (secured by equity in your home, cars, & other assets), enabling us to offer mind-bendingly low APRs to consumers. Our first product is the world’s lowest APR credit card. Come invent & change the world with us.

Who are we?

We are a well-capitalized (over $250MM in equity funding) team of technology (Microsoft, Facebook), and finance (Square, Discover, CapitalOne, and Goldman) executives with top-tier investors -- Founders Fund, Khosla Ventures, Max Levchin, NYCA, Sequoia, etc.

Our team includes people who have built

• Financial products (Square/CashApp, the earliest CapitalOne credit cards)
• Consumer products (Internet.org, Xbox)
• Technology infrastructure (C++/C#, Visual Studio, Windows & Azure)
• Mathematics & science infrastructure (computational research at NASA’s JPL).

We are missionaries that like to work hard on important problems, and build products that become infrastructure for society. We believe that using technology to lower the cost of capital for consumers is one of these problems - and if we can do it, it could have a big impact on a lot of people’s lives.

Our philosophy

We are a technology company at heart - and we seek to invent & advance the state of the art to build insanely great consumer financial products - starting with the world’s first home-equity backed credit card.

We like to deeply understand the nuances & excruciating details of the systems we are building on top of - whether it be legal frameworks & regs, or APIs and 3rd party data-providers. No work is beneath any of us - from the CEO to our compliance lead - we get excited to audit our database to check each cell to ensure that they are correct and to pick up customer support calls.

We believe inventing great products happens at the intersection of extremely deep detailed domain knowledge & a very lateral thought process. We don’t like to invent for the sake of it - we do it when we think we can make something significantly better.

We value being pragmatic, rational, fast, minimalist, detailed oriented, and obsessively customer-centric.

Who are you?

We are looking for engineers who are passionate about building consumer products. You have experience with metrics driven iterative product development at a fast pace. You get excited by working on customer problems closely with our customer support and servicing teams. You care about prioritizing and measuring impact, and driving towards impact driven goals and metrics.

You have built consumer interfaces at scale. You have built consumer interfaces that work in all network conditions and gracefully degrade as the network worsens. You care about the debounce time on a typeahead, or the layout of a card on different devices. You obsess over what contrast will get you the best engagement on a specific UI element. You worry about how your current feature will interact with the existing UX.

You can expect to work on

Anything and everything. At this early stage, you will find yourself:

• Building a best in class credit card origination flow
• Building a best in class video notarization solution
• Helping us execute world-class growth & engagement tactics for our product
• Architecting core product infrastructure to enable us to go from 0-to-1

• Become an expert in our product space, such that you're able to define how products should work end-to-end.

You should join us if

• You have led large technically complex projects with a lot of moving parts
• You have a lot of experience with a lot of disparate systems
• You have worked on production grade compilers, operating systems, or large distributed systems

• You enjoy diving into the deep end and feel like that’s where the greatest personal growth happens
• You are fearless about learning the details, and understanding every single minute detail of an underlying system or process
