Role
Who you are
- Do you relish in the delight of customers, and in the opportunity to develop an amazing product you'll be proud of, and one they'll be happy to pay for?
- Do you have a keen eye for detail and design, but enjoy trading off perfection in pursuit of progress?
- Do you thrive in an environment of quick and collaborative iteration?
- You're the kind of developer who knows not only what the best practices are, but understands why they are, and so knows when to ignore them
- You're confident in making your case but open to alternative ideas, and willing to disagree and commit either way
What the job involves
- Building a real-time, collaborative financial workspace for teams
- Designing and developing a scalable and maintainable API
- Integrating with lots of different financial data providers
- Crafting beautifully simple abstractions to enable adaptable, frictionless UX
- Handling our own and customers' data securely and compliantly
- On the backend, we've got an Elixir/Phoenix application, deployed on AWS via Terraform. On the frontend, we have a React application using TypeScript and TailwindCSS. We don't expect you to be an expert in every one of those areas
- If you've enjoyed working in any functional language, we think you'll love Elixir (but if you've never even dabbled, we think you'll love it too)
- If you've felt productive working with a framework like Rails or Django, you'll get the hang of Phoenix in no time
- If you've worked with React, but not TypeScript, we can work with that. If you know your JS, but have never written React, that's fine too
- You get the picture – it's not about your familiarity with specific technologies. If you're an expert in one or another domain, but open to learning as you go, we'll start from there
- Over time, we'll expect you to wear many hats. You'll be an architect balancing performance and pragmatism. You'll be a developer considering and implementing different designs. You'll be a product manager cutting and simplifying features. You'll be a leader and a mentor

Our take
Excel represents an essential tool used by finance professionals every day. According to LiveFlow, even though Excel was widely used in finance for the past 30 years, it's a standard tool that did not improve in time, thus it failed to adapt to the increasingly complex needs of finance professionals. The company aims to solve this problem by creating a modern Financial Management tool that aims to serve the needs of modern finance teams.
The founders first came up with the idea for LiveFlow after co-founder, Lasse, went bankrupt running his first business. Aiming to stop any other business having the same fate, LiveFlow was launched to ensure that clients have access to all of their financial information in one place.
The company differentiates itself through its proprietary technology that allows spreadsheets to automatically connect to the real-time data of users from Google Sheets, banks, and accounting platforms. LiveFlow already counts Nova Credit, Unfurl, Gorgias, and Olaf among its clients. Having closed a seed round in 2022, it continues to build a strong customer base.
