  • You have worked on production-grade compilers, operating systems, or large distributed systems
  • You can jump into a new environment and hit the ground running without much hand holding

  • You thrive in highly collaborative environments and are down to riff with us on anything from company mission to software architecture to user research
  • You enjoy diving into the deep end and feel like that’s where the greatest personal growth happens

What the job involves

  • We are looking for an experienced engineer who can dig deep into all aspects of a system
  • You will be digging into performance issues of a web application, and debugging race conditions across client/server boundaries
  • You will also be responsible for the architecture of the system, design reviews and code reviews. This role will evolve into having tech leadership responsibilities
  • Building a best in class credit card origination flow
  • Building a best in class video notarization solution

  • Architecting core product infrastructure to enable us to go from 0-to-1
  • Weighing in on strategy. Every voice is important to help inform our decisions
  • Influencing our tech stack

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

Our take

Founded in 2019, Aven is a credit card provider that uses home equity to provide users with low interests rates on their credit cards (known as HELOC).

Amongst other values, Aven prides itself on minimalism and speed (without hindering quality) - you can be approved in as little as 15 minutes for one of its cards. With its mobile friendly, fast app, Aven is a bit of a phenomenon in the credit card space, being the first credit card to be created with the unlocking of home equity. The company really is pursuing its mission to provide easy access to capital, and its “without frills” aesthetic and culture makes what can be quite a daunting and overwhelming process seem far more approachable for its customers.

Aven has had multiple successful funding rounds since it was founded, highlighting its promise. Backed by top tier investors like Sequoia and Caffeinated Capital, the idea behind the company is well backed and it’ll be exciting to see where the company goes next.
