What the job involves

We're looking to add a backend engineer to our team
You'll have 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
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

Our take

For startups, finding a successful business model and streamlining investors is often the key to building a scalable company. But without early backing from investment organisations and entrepreneurs, many companies fail to get off the ground and don't reach the potential they could have achieved given the right funding.

Standard Metrics (formerly known as Quaestor) is an investment platform for startups and investors in the private capital markets. Using automated data, Standard Metrics is enabling financial transparency between startups and investors and empowering founders to make better decisions when scaling their companies.

Having led successful funding rounds with investors such as 8VC, Alpha Edison, January Capital, and First Trust Capital Partners, Standard Metrics is using the capital gained to further develop its software platform and scale its network of investors and private companies, both domestically and internationally.

Company benefits

Health and dental insurance: We cover you and your family's health/dental insurance 100%
Flexible vacation: Take time off when you need it! We find most employs 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
Complete transparency: Everyone has full access to business metrics and financial information about the company
Quarterly offsites: While we are a remote first company, and we build our communication, processes, and structures with a dispersed workforce in mind, we also love getting the team together. Once a quarter we fly the whole team out to San Francisco to plan, bond, and innovate
