The Team You'll Work With

You’ll be joining the Fund Admin Documents team as a Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer. 

Our team is focused on creating a centralized platform for managing the large quantity of documents that our fund administration clients need to use to effectively manage their venture capital funds, so that our clients have visibility into the documents which serve as a source of truth for the management of their funds. In addition, we aim to leverage machine learning in the analysis and extraction of data from these documents in order to automate and streamline various processes that would otherwise be manual and time-consuming, such as audits and new client onboarding.

We are a small team with the potential to make a major impact in how we play to win the fund administration market. We are a highly collaborative and dynamic team that values technical excellence and delivering quality solutions for our customers. If that’s what you’re looking for, you’ll find it in the Fund Admin Documents team.

 

The Problems You'll Solve

As a Senior Full-Stack Engineer on the Fund Admin Documents team, you will:

  • Work closely with our product manager, designer, and other engineers on the team to solve major pain points and improve the quality and efficiency of our fund administration services
  • Work with a wide array of stakeholders across the business to determine desired outcomes, propose technical solutions, build consensus in support of the initiative, execute, implement, and test your solutions, and deploy and monitor these solutions to real customers in production
  • Implement and improve our backend APIs and services to power a centralized documents platform for Carta’s fund administration clients
  • Create and customize our frontend webpages and user interfaces for both internal and external customers to view and manage fund documents
  • Maintain a high standard of both quality and impact of your technical contributions and act as a positive influence on other engineers across the team and engineering organization

Our tech stack:

  • Our frontend is written in Typescript / React (hooks), tested with Jest, and linted with ESLint
  • Our backend runs on Python / Django, using PostgreSQL, Redis, Kafka, and gRPC, and is tested with unit tests and end-to-end regression tests
  • Our designers create wireframes and prototypes in Figma
  • Our frontend lives within a Frontend Mono-Repo
  • Our continuous integration provider is CircleCI
  • Our observability tooling includes Snowplow / Amplitude, Datadog, and Sentry

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
