The Problems You’ll Solve

At Carta, our employees set out on a mission to unlock the power of equity ownership for more people in more places. We believe that the problems we solve today unlock the opportunities of tomorrow. Most of Carta's long-term success will come from products and technology that have yet to be built. Here is an incomplete list of how you might contribute:

  • Building customer-facing enterprise tools for equity administration
  • Creating data pipelines for asynchronously aggregating financial reports
  • Reinforcing service resiliency, availability, and fault tolerance
  • Streamlining the creation of new features and services within our ecosystem
  • Integrating with third-party vendors to provide reliable, accurate, and timely transfers of billions of dollars per year through Carta's platform
  • Refactoring existing features into standalone event-driven services
  • And others for you to discover and champion

You'll work directly with internal and external stakeholders to ensure we're building the right thing at the right time with the right people. Your contributions will enable Carta's mission to make equity more available and accessible to everyone.

The Team You’ll Work With

You will join our engineering team of passionate learners, builders, experts, and leaders to define and implement Carta's next generation of products, platforms, and infrastructure. You'll collaborate closely with key stakeholders in Product, Business, and Design. Carta's software engineers contribute in many different ways: sometimes we are shipping new product features, architecting simple and maintainable systems, or training the organization on new technology solutions. You will make your own mark here. Here are some of the teams we’re hiring for:

  • Alternative Assets - as we expand beyond Venture Capital, this team builds solutions for products that bridge the gap for clients in Alternative Assets like Private Equity funds, Real Estate, Oil and Gas, etc. As an engineer on this team, you will play a key role in features for the foundational product. The choices we make will define our future product infrastructure.
  • Cap Table & Reporting - this team owns the Cap Table product which includes cap table experiences, equity reporting, company management and fund raise products. This team is responsible for the services that power these products and ensure the cap table calculations are accurate and performant.
  • Developer Ecosystem - this team builds the API platform and connects Carta’s data across the fintech landscape, helping employees, companies, and investors better access and analyze their cap tables and equity. They work with a broad set of stakeholders in both a technical and strategic growth area for the company.
About You

At Carta, you’re not just an employee. You’re a builder who is creating infrastructure that accelerates innovation and empowers more ownership. Cartans are helpful, relentless, unconventional and kind; representing Carta’s Identity Traits. They work collaboratively and cross functionally to challenge the status quo; working towards a common goal of creating more owners in the private markets.

  • You have 5+ years of experience as a Software Engineer.
  • You have strong technical skills and are an excellent collaborator.
  • You implement systems that are clear, maintainable, and correct.
  • You are excited by opportunities to both break ground on new projects and provide fresh perspective onto past implementations.
  • You want to build and own your work end-to-end.
  • You are eager to move fast, but recognize when to build for the future.
  • You may be familiar with some elements of the Carta tech stack (Python, Django, Java, Javascript, React, Postgres, GRPC, Kafka)
The Interview Process

First, one of our recruiters will call you to tell you more about the job and company. You'll then meet an Engineering leader who will discuss your opportunities at Carta and explore your experience, skills, and goals. Next, we’ll send you a technical exercise where you’ll implement a software solution to a small engineering problem. Finally, you'll have back-to-back conversations with Carta team members on a wide range of topics, including communications and collaboration, coding efficacy and techniques, and systems design.

We are an equal opportunity employer and are committed to providing a positive interview experience for every candidate. If accommodations due to a disability or medical condition are needed, please connect with the recruiter via email. As a company, we value fairness, helpfulness, transparency, leadership and build our teams around these values.
