Sliced Investing (YC S14) is looking for a talented back end engineer

Institutional investors like endowments and pension funds are long term investors that invest in both public and private markets to secure the financial health of their institutions for years to come. However, individual investors have limited access to private fund investments. We are a Y Combinator backed startup that is democratizing access to private fund investments like hedge funds and venture funds by giving the individual investors the ability to invest alongside institutions without needing millions to meet the minimums.

At our core we are a technology company that is shaping the way private financial markets will be accessed by building great software. We were featured among notable startups for Y Combinator S14 batch on AngelList and rated #4 on the Top 10 Seed Stage Y Combinator companies by Mattermark. We are looking for a talented software engineer to be part of our core engineering team in San Francisco as our lead back end engineer.

Your job as the lead back end engineer will be to build and enhance the infrastructure that supports a high quality investing platform with a focus on automation and addition of new features. You will work closely with the product and data science teams. Your work will allow the platform to scale to the next level. As part of a small team at an early stage company you'll have a direct impact on the company’s future by being involved in everything from important discussions about company direction and what features to build to strategies that can take your ping pong skills to the next level. We need you to build the premier platform for investing in private offerings.
