United States only🚂 About Pulley
Pulley's mission is to make it easier for anyone to start a company. We believe that more startups should exist and that founder-led companies are more successful in the long term. With Pulley’s cap table management tools, companies can better understand and optimize their equity for the long term. Starting a company is hard enough. Managing equity shouldn’t be.
As AI reshapes how companies operate, we’re exploring what equity management looks like in an AI-native world. We believe there's an opportunity to redefine how early-stage leaders build and manage their companies. It’s a brand-new, unsolved challenge—and we're building a solution that leverages our strengths to meet it.
Our trajectory is fueled by top investors like Founders’ Fund, Stripe, General Catalyst, Caffeinated Capital, 8vc, Elad Gil, among other great angels. Pulley is growing quickly with over 4,000 customers including startups like Linear, Runway, Fathom, and Roam, and we’re growing the team to meet the demand.
🌟 About the role
We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to help lead the development of key product experiences for startup founders managing equity and company-building workflows. In this role, you’ll go beyond just writing code, you’ll help shape product strategy, influence architecture, and mentor teammates as we build the future of cap table and business management in an AI-native world.
As a Senior Engineer, you’ll have significant ownership over feature development and technical direction. You’ll partner closely with design, product, and fellow engineers to deliver polished, performant experiences that simplify complex workflows and scale with our growing user base. Your work will be instrumental in helping thousands of founders make smarter, faster decisions about their companies.
🛠 What you’ll do
- Lead development of core product features across the frontend
- Partner with product and design to scope, shape, and ship features that address real user needs
- Work closely with backend, data, and AI engineers to build seamless, performant integrations
- Help evolve our technical architecture and engineering best practices as we scale
- Conduct thoughtful code reviews, mentor junior and mid-level engineers, and contribute to team learning
- Take ownership of reliability and quality for the features and systems you build
🙌 What you bring
- 5–7 years of experience building and scaling production-level web applications
- Track record of shipping features end-to-end with high quality and performance in mind
- Strong proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript and frontend frameworks like React
- Experience working across the stack and collaborating closely with backend and product teams
- A user-centric mindset with an ability to break down complex workflows into intuitive interfaces
- Strong communication and collaboration skills
- Familiarity or interest in AI-powered developer tools like Cursor
✨ Why work at Pulley?
- We’ve moved beyond early-stage uncertainty - Our product has traction and we’re building on a solid foundation, but we’re still early enough in our journey where your work will directly shape the company’s trajectory as we scale.
- Make it easier for anyone to start a company - Founders turn bold ideas into reality - building things that might not exist otherwise. Starting a company is hard enough. Managing equity should be. Pulley exists to make equity management simpler, smarter, and more accessible for founders from day one.
- Work with a high-performing and passionate team - We value the concept of stunning colleagues and we’re thoughtful about creating a team that is excited about building a great company together. Here are some traits that enable our team members to thrive:
- First Principles Thinking - We believe in breaking down problems into their most basic parts, and that something is possible unless proven otherwise. We understand “why did certain things work?” and apply it to our situation.
- Ship It & Iterate - We value people who not only generate ideas but also do the work to bring them to life. Instead of fixating on outcomes, we focus on the inputs we can control and take our best bets. We move quickly to ship something, talk to users, get feedback, and iterate.
- Boldly Honest & Aggressively Considerate - Being boldly honest means challenging each other to set and hit goals, and make the right strategic decisions on what to build. Being aggressively considerate means caring about one another as humans and speaking up with empathy so we can succeed together as a team.
- Ego-less Learner - Everyday at Pulley, we’re trying things that we’ve never done before - sometimes they work; sometimes they don’t. It’s important to embrace the mindset of a beginner - stay curious, open to feedback, and ready to learn and grow alongside the team.
