Careers

Build the warning the bank never sent

9 people in San Francisco and across the US, working on one problem full time. 4 roles open now.

How we work

Four things we mean

Pre-Seed stage means the constraints are real, the ownership is real, and the decisions you make now are the ones that ship.

The forecast earns trust or it does not

Every change to the model is measured against histories with known outcomes before it ships. A number that turns out wrong costs someone more than a wider range that turns out right. We build the evaluation first.

Plain language is harder than jargon

If we cannot explain a warning in one sentence a person can act on, it is not ready. Writing the read is not documentation. It is the job.

Small team, real ownership

Nine people. You own an area, not a ticket queue, and you will talk to users in your first two weeks. Equity is real and we explain the numbers rather than waving at them.

We say what we do not know

We show a confidence range that widens the further out the forecast looks, because that is true. The same principle applies to us: when the answer is uncertain, we say so.

How we hire

Four steps, usually inside two weeks

01

Intro call

Thirty minutes with a founder. We want to understand what you have built and why this problem, not to quiz you on algorithms.

02

Work session

A paid task from our real backlog. Three to four hours. The point is to see how you think, not to extract free work.

03

Team conversations

Two conversations with people you would work alongside. We tell you who and why, and you can ask them anything.

04

Offer

A written offer with the equity numbers, the vesting schedule and the salary, explained rather than summarised.

Apply

Send it straight to us

No cover letter. Tell us what you have built that is closest to the role you are interested in, and why this problem. We read every application and reply within five business days, either way.
