Founding Engineer @ Toolkit
About Toolkit
Toolkit is looking for engineers to help us eliminate grunt work in every company. We are starting with finance teams, who waste three quarters of their year on grunt work due to siloed and bloated software.
We are a deeply technical team obsessed with unglamorous problems that slow down every company. We are backed by Entrepreneur First and the fund behind Brex, Snowflake, and Anduril, with a $3.4M seed round raised in December 2024.
Currently, we are in pilots with many of the US's fastest growing VC-backed companies.
About this Role
As a Founding Engineer, you will be a core part of our early team and have a massive impact on our product, culture, and company trajectory. You will work directly with the founders to build our platform from the ground up, tackling difficult and interesting technical problems.
Some of the challenges you'll help us solve:
- • Building robust, scalable data models that ingest and standardize data from any source.
- • Architecting a high-performance reconciliation engine that can process millions of rows in seconds.
- • Designing an intuitive and powerful Excel plug-in that feels like magic to our users.
- • Making product decisions that will shape Toolkit for years to come.
About You
We are looking for an ambitious engineer with 3+ years of professional experience. We value potential, drive, and a passion for building great products over years on a resume.
You might be a good fit if you:
- • Love to code. You have professional or personal projects you're excited to show us. You're a lifelong coder and this is your calling.
- • Are versed in modern web stacks & making architectural decisions. We use Typescript and React, but we care more about your engineering fundamentals than specific knowledge.
- • Are hungry for ownership.
- • Find deep satisfaction in solving complex, detail-oriented problems.
- • Are down-to-earth.
Location & Compensation
- • Location: In-person in our downtown San Francisco office.
- • Salary: $150,000/year – $250,000/year, based on your skills and experience. Willing to flex for exceptional fit.
- • Equity: 0.1-1%.
- • Other: Free lunch, high-protein snacks & drinks.
