About Middesk
Our goal is to make it easier for businesses to work together. Since 2018, we have been a leading disruptor in the business identity market. While consumer identity technology has seen significant modernization and digitization over the past decade, business identity and verification largely continues to be a manual process, specifically in the context of onboarding businesses to receive access to financial products and services. Our best-in-class business identity platform provides access to complete, up-to-date information that financial services institutions and fintechs need to make educated decisions about their customers and facilitate rapid onboarding and transacting. Our vision is that every company can instantly gain access to all the data, products, and services they need to establish and grow their business with ease. Middesk came out of Y Combinator, is backed by Sequoia Capital and Accel Partners, and was recently named to Forbes Fintech 50 List and cited as an industry leader in business verification by digital identity strategy firm, Liminal.

About Middesk Engineering

We believe "velocity" is the rate at which we effect realized value for our customers, not the rate at which we ship code. And this pushes us to center our work around customers; how will this change I'm about to make help our customers get jobs done?

When we're coding, we're making hundreds of micro-decisions about user experience that add up. How can I communicate this exception to our customers in a manner that helps them understand what's happened and unblock themselves?

Middesk Engineering is customer-first engineering. (check out our blog post on the topic).

The role

Engineers have the freedom to create a lot of impact for our customers. The role requires high agency and comfort with change. It requires people who believe the interesting problems in Engineering are stack-agnostic. It requires Engineers who believe that solving customer problems quickly is what matters first; building scalable systems matters when customer problems are scaling problems.

What You'll Do:
  • Work in React, Redux, Ruby, Rails, Postgres, and potentially Scala, Python, and Go to solve problems for our customers.
  • Dive into all layers of the stack; frontend, backend, API, data processors, etc.
  • Jam with Product Managers, Designers, Ops, and other Engineers every day to shape the direction of our products.
  • Share your knowledge with others in Engineering; people should get better at their craft because they work with you. Even if you're early in your career, you have something to teach.
  • Contribute to the psychological safety of your team. Software is built by groups of people, and good relationships matter.
  • Help us interview and hire other Engineers.


What We're Looking For:
  • While we agree the interesting problems in Engineering are stack-agnostic, we'd love it if you had experience with a couple of the languages in our stack (see the first point above). We've found that Engineers with prior stack experience usually ramp faster.
  • You've worked for a high-growth, venture-backed startup before and are looking for a similar role. Or, you've founded a company and are looking to get back into it.
  • You've been working as a professional Software Engineer for at least three or more years.
  • You understand SaaS business fundamentals (e.g. annual contract value, customer acquisition cost, and annual-recurring revenue) and can demonstrate how the work you've done influences these metrics.
