Staff Software Engineer - Full-Stack (Remote) at Fathom | Y Combinator
www.ycombinator.comAre you a highly experienced software engineer who enjoys working on a fast-growing product that users absolutely love? If so, you've come to the right place.
You have a lot of choices about where you spend your time, so let's first tell you a little about us.
🚀 ABOUT FATHOM
We think it’s insane that so many people and businesses rely on notes as a primary means of remembering and sharing insights from video calls.
Notes are time-consuming and stressful to create while trying to hold a conversation. Even when done well, notes are a poor solution compared to hearing something first-hand.
We started Fathom to rid us all of the tyranny of note-taking, and people seem to really love what we've built so far:
🔥 #1 Rated on G2 with 1,100+ reviews and a perfect 5/5 rating (https://www.g2.com/products/fathom-2021-09-22/reviews)
🥇 #1 Product of the Day and #2 AI Product of the Year (https://www.producthunt.com/posts/fathom-2)
💸 We’ve raised a $4.7M seed round (https://techcrunch.com/2022/01/24/fathom-raises-3-7m-for-its-ai-notetaker/) from a number of great investors including the CEOs of Twitch, Reddit, Cruise, Clearbit, and many more.
💖 Users have invested over $1.2M via our Wefunder (http://wefunder.com/fathom.video/)
📈 We’re hitting usage records every week. Check out our DAU graph (https://i.ibb.co/NyPMR95/Screenshot-2023-07-09-at-5-37-08-PM.png)
As you can see from the last graph, we're growing incredibly quickly, which is why we're looking to grow our small-but-mighty team.
🔥 WHY YOU SHOULD JOIN US
We’re smart and GSD (get shit done). You’ll work alongside our 3-person, all-senior engineering team with significant academic experience as well (two PhDs and two Masters).
We embrace being fully remote. We schedule meetings sparingly and instead heavily use async comms (Slack, Notion, Loom)
Opportunity for impact. We’re established enough to be able to ship instead of fight fires but also early enough enough that your work will have a real impact.
Experienced management. You’ll work closely with our CEO who is a 2X Founder/CEO (previously started UserVoice) and who has a background in computer science as well as product design.
⚙️ TECH STACK
We use all of the following technologies. Your knowledge of these would be helpful but you need not be familiar with all of them.
GKE, Ruby/Rails/Sidekiq, Go, Electron, Typescript/TSX, Stencil, Elasticsearch, C++, Kafka, MySQL, Redis, Pusher, GitHub Actions, Docker, ArgoCD, CircleCI
✅ HARD REQUIREMENTS
Outside of the obvious technical skills, GSD mindset, and ability to thrive in a remote environment, we do have a few hard requirements that you should be aware of:
High level of technical competence
You must have 5+ years of production experience with SAAS that has achieved some level of traction. We have no junior folks on our team nor the bandwidth to mentor them (yet).
Must speak English fluently and be available to work within 2 hours of a US timezone.
