Job Description

đźš‚ 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 frontend focused Staff Software Engineer to lead the design and development of high-impact product experiences that power how founders build and manage their companies. This is a key role for someone who thrives at the intersection of engineering and product, someone who can connect technical decisions to user needs, guide cross-functional teams through ambiguity, and scale systems as Pulley grows.

As a Staff Engineer, you’ll take end-to-end ownership of critical initiatives, influence our long-term technical strategy, and elevate the team through mentorship and collaboration. You’ll work closely with product, design, and leadership to drive meaningful outcomes that simplify complexity and create leverage for thousands of startups managing equity in an AI-native world.

🛠 What you’ll do

  • Lead technical design, implementation, and delivery of major product features and infrastructure improvements
  • Partner with product and design to translate user needs into scalable, elegant software solutions
  • Drive architectural decisions that improve performance, maintainability, and developer velocity
  • Collaborate across the stack: frontend, backend, data, and AI systems to deliver cohesive product experiences
  • Identify and address engineering-wide challenges, including system reliability and code quality
  • Mentor engineers across levels, raise the technical bar, and help cultivate a culture of craftsmanship
  • Shape team processes and engineering best practices as we scale

🙌 What you bring

  • 8+ years of experience building and scaling full-stack web applications
  • Deep expertise in JavaScript/TypeScript and React, with the ability to mentor others in frontend best practices
  • Proven experience owning complex technical projects end-to-end, including architecture and execution
  • A strong product mindset: you connect technical work to user outcomes and business goals
  • Excellent communication skills and a collaborative, team-first approach
  • Experience mentoring engineers and driving cross-functional alignment across teams
  • 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.

Safe Remote Job Search Tips

Verify Employer Thoroughly

Research the company's identity thoroughly before applying. Check for a professional website with contacts, active social media, and LinkedIn profiles. Verify details across platforms and look for reviews on Glassdoor or Trustpilot to confirm legitimacy.

Never Pay to Get a Job

Legitimate employers never require payment for applications, training, background checks, or equipment. Always reject upfront payment requests or demands for bank details, even if they claim it's for purchasing necessary work gear on your behalf.

Safeguard Your Personal Information

Protect sensitive data like SSN, bank details, or ID copies. Share this only after accepting a formal, written job offer. Ensure it's submitted via a secure company system or portal, never through insecure channels like standard email attachments.

Scrutinize Communication & Interviews

Watch for communication red flags: poor grammar, generic emails (@gmail), vague details, or undue pressure. Be highly suspicious of interviews held only via text or chat apps; legitimate companies typically use video or phone calls.

Beware of Unrealistic Offers

If an offer's salary or benefits seem unrealistically high for the work involved, be cautious. Research standard pay for similar roles. Offers that appear 'too good to be true' are often scams designed to lure you into providing information or payment.

Insist on a Formal Contract

Always secure and review a formal, written job offer or employment contract before starting work or sharing final personal details. Ensure it clearly defines your role, compensation, key terms, and conditions to avoid misunderstandings or scams.
