STACK is the industry’s only Professional Information Management Platform, designed to align ongoing management of critical components of your professional life. Whether compliance with third-party requirements (like accreditation or licensure), or aligning organizational membership benefits, the intuitive framework ensures that no deadlines are missed, and nothing is lost in a sea of multiple passwords.

📋 Description

• Own the most technically complex and highest-impact problems in the product, end to end, from architectural vision through to production reliability. • Define technical direction across the engineering team: set patterns, establish standards, and make foundational decisions that others build on for years. • Leads cross-functional technical discussions, partnering closely with product, design, and the founding team to translate ambiguous problems into elegant, scalable solutions. • Join customer calls and engage directly with finance leads and CFOs. You will bring technical depth to commercial conversations and use what you learn to sharpen what we build. • Identify and resolve systemic risks before they become production incidents. You design for failure, not around it. • Raise the bar for the whole team: through code reviews, technical mentorship, and by modelling what rigorous, thoughtful engineering looks like in practice. • Lead by example as an active contributor: not only setting technical direction, but consistently writing production code, raising the bar in code reviews, mentoring engineers, and evolving AI-native engineering workflows.

🎯 Requirements

• Ownership and DRI mindset: You own problems end to end, create clarity when none exists, and take responsibility for outcomes without waiting to be told what to do next. • Full stack depth with a backend focus: Strong TypeScript and Node.js fundamentals, comfortable across the stack, solid on API design, async processing, failure handling, and data modelling. • Judgment under ambiguity: You make high-quality trade-offs between speed, correctness, and long-term system health. You choose simple and scalable where others over-engineer. • Product and customer mindset: You think in customer problems, not tickets. You have talked to users and used what you learned to change what you built. • Learning speed: You close gaps independently and with urgency. You do not need a long ramp-up or structure to orient yourself. • Execution and reliability: You have shipped things that mattered and felt personally responsible when they did not work. You design for failure from the start. • Influence and leverage: You make the engineers around you faster and better through how you write code, share context, and raise issues.

🏖️ Benefits

• Foundational role: Help shape a category-defining company from an early stage, working directly with founders and a small, high-agency team. • Cutting-Edge Technology: Work at the forefront of the AI revolution in a product where AI is core, not bolted on • Meaningful ownership: Competitive equity in a company scaling rapidly towards $10m ARR, where your impact will directly shape the outcome. • Cutting-edge product and tech: Work at the intersection of AI and finance, building systems that fundamentally change how companies run their financial close. • High-calibre team: Collaborate with people from companies like Uber, Plaid, Miro, and Mollie. • Exceptional workspace: Our London HQ is based in Fora — a modern, design-led space in the heart of the city with access to a gym, classes, and an environment built for focused, in-person building • Strong team culture: We run regular socials and off-sites that bring the team together properly, we recently have our 2-year anniversary party in Amsterdam, with board games, a tarot card reader and live music 🎶
