Why Engineers Are Interested:

  • Strong engineering talent density
  • Backed by respected investors - $50m+ funding
  • Fast-moving team with minimal bureaucracy
  • Complex backend technical challenges with real-world scale

  • Startup mentality and ability to move fast
  • Solid software architecture experience
