Software Engineer

Engineering · San Francisco, United States · Remote possible

Job description

Standard Metrics, formerly known as Quaestor, is an automated financial collaboration platform that helps investors and founders to move faster together and make better, forward-facing decisions. We're a full-time team of product builders, investors, and optimists, rebuilding investor relations from the ground up. Standard Metrics is backed by 8VC and Spark Capital along with other leading software VCs and angels and is currently a trusted resource for many of the top venture capital firms in the world. 

Come Build With Us

We're looking to add several experienced full-stack engineers to our team. There's an opportunity to have a big impact at this early stage, not only on the core product but also on the culture and direction of the company. We're looking for someone who's comfortable going outside their comfort zone and wearing many different hats. Strong experience building web applications is essential; if you've built them from scratch, that's even better. 

What You'll Do

  • Design, architect, and build Standard Metrics’ core product as a member of the engineering team.
  • Take ownership of entire outcomes, and continue to support and grow them through iteration, documentation, and bug fixes. We do not have a QA team.
  • Collaborate with the product team in scoping and defining the features that will best help the company achieve the outcomes aligned with our goals and the values we believe in.
  • Be an active contributor to the company culture and future hiring efforts.

What You'll Bring

  • Strong record of building and delivering web applications.
  • Expertise in a modern web framework (Django, Rails, Express, Gin, etc.).
  • Expertise in a modern SPA framework (React, Angular, Vue, etc.).
  • Expertise in modern infrastructure (Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS, CircleCI, etc.).
  • Understanding and adherence to modern software development practices (Gitflow, continuous integration, peer reviews, etc.).

Competitive salary: For our employees located in the USA, we aim to pay at or above the market rate of US-based tech hubs like San Francisco or NYC. For international roles, we aim to pay top of market for your country. 

Health and dental insurance: We cover you and your family's health/dental insurance 100% in the USA. Internationally we match local health coverage for you and your family.

Flexible vacation: Take time off when you need it! We find most employees take 3-4 weeks in addition to holidays, but there are no firm rules. We trust our employees to know what's best for them.

Paid parental leave: 12 weeks of paid leave for all new parents in the USA. Internationally we match parental leave standards in your area.

Complete transparency: Everyone has full access to business metrics and financial information about the company.

Regular offsites: While we are a remote first company and build our communication, processes, and structures with a dispersed workforce in mind, we also love getting the team together. On a recurring basis, we fly the whole team out to an exciting destination to plan, bond, and innovate.
 
We encourage you to apply even if your experience doesn't perfectly align with the job description as we seek out diverse and creative perspectives. Team members who love to learn and collaborate in an inclusive environment will thrive with us. We are an equal opportunity employer and do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
