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.

As a Software Engineer, you will be building and shaping our Valuations products. In particular, you’ll be one of the key contributors in building new features, improving operational efficiency and minimizing technical debt while capitalizing on standardized solutions. Working in close collaboration with both business and other engineering teams within Carta, we navigate a unique and challenging product space that intersects with multiple domains including Cap Table Management, Taxes and Investor Products. This will be a unique opportunity to have an impact not just within your product space, but also across teams within Carta.

In this role you will:

• Design and code highly available, secure, and scalable platforms and user experiences
• Adhere to test-driven development (TDD), maintain high levels of code coverage and automation
• Conduct timely and thoughtful peer code review
• Leverage logging and monitoring of platforms to improve observability
• Instrument system performance and business metrics

The Team You'll Work With

You will become a part of our Valuations team, a diverse group of learners, builders, experts, and leaders dedicated to transforming asset valuation. Our mission is clear: to value every asset accurately and in real-time. We are at the heart of developing solutions for fast and accurate valuations across a broad spectrum (409A, ASC 820, Warrants, Gifts, etc). We cater to a variety of needs, from facilitating exit events and issuing option grants to providing audit-defensible financial statements.

We support each business unit within Carta. Projects we work on range from new customer user experiences, data platforms and 3rd party integrations. We also build tools for financial analysts to deliver valuations at scale using Carta’s data sets and machine learning platforms.

If you're excited about crafting a platform versatile enough to tackle the most complex challenges head-on, we're looking for you. Join our team and see how your work directly impacts how the world values assets.
