Role
Who you are
- You have introductory experience with React and/or Ruby on Rails
- Tests are your best friend (you can't write too many!)
- You write clean code, take pride in class design and choose the right level of abstraction
- Assume others will look at your code and document accordingly
- Assume users will do the unexpected and handle error conditions
- Act as a technology generalist, bringing our vision to life will be a challenge and we'll frequently be pushed outside our comfort zones
- We require that you have experience building clean user experiences, ideally with React and Ruby on Rails. You have experience testing in frameworks like RSpec, Jest and/or Cuprite
- Multiple years of experience are not required but you have a track record of curiosity and learning. We strongly believe in people's ability to grow and are looking for people who can grow with us
What the job involves
- Themis is looking for a talented software engineer to be part of our initial engineering team. We are bringing to life our vision of making governance accessible and easy for everyone. We are taking workflows typically run on spreadsheets and emails and building beautiful software to make it easier for organizations to adhere to governance requirements and regulations
- We're looking for smart people who are curious, willing to learn and who can embrace a challenge. We are open to a range of commitment levels (full-time, part-time, and contract work) and help team members find the best work structure for their lives
- You will be establishing our customer facing portal which will be used by the largest Fintechs and financial companies in the world. The product is in initial stages of development and we need you to rapidly ship testable and performant code
Our take
The demand for financial compliance tools has increased dramatically since the Financial Crisis. Yet, current technology offerings fail to capture the way officials dealing with this issue actually work.
In response, Themis offers pay-as-you-go compliance for banks, fintechs, and crypto startups. In particular, Themis allows compliance-focused employees to manage workflows effectively while emphasizing collaboration amongst compliance staff both within firms and between them and their partners and regulators.
The company is now focused on expanding its compliance features to focus on crypto startups. In the opinion of Themis’s leadership, there is a great deal more work to be done in this area beyond just the current focus on know-your-customer and anti-money laundering efforts.
