Senior Product Backend Engineer in NYC. On-site. Visa sponsorship available. Needs strong backend experience: NodeJS, Postgres, AWS, data models, APIs, cloud infrastructure. Collaborate with CTO and team to build APIs for Shelf, ensure scalability, quality. Startup experience, user empathy, high standards crucial. Salary: $130k-$180k.

koodos created <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.getashelf.com/">Shelf</a>, which connects to your favorite services to help you keep track of what you’re consuming and, optionally, give your friends an authentic view into what you’ve been into lately. On Shelf, you can track what you’ve been consuming and get personal insights, plus you get a customizable web page that updates automatically and lets you showcase your vibe—sort of like a “Spotify Wrapped", but for everything!To power Shelf, koodos developed <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://datamover.org/">DataMover</a>, pioneering infrastructure that allows users to securely access their data from any site or app and store it in their personal data store. Similar to Plaid but for user data, DataMover has already been integrated into multiple apps, securely linking hundreds of thousands of accounts and empowering users to regain full control over their data access and privacy.While Shelf’s fun features are front and center, it’s also about giving users true control over their data. With the rise of AI agents and the death of cookies, there’s a growing need for personal data access and the future is shifting from centralized data aggregation to a more decentralized model where individuals have more of a say around access to their own data. Beyond market pull, this wave is driven by regulatory changes, technological advances in secure data management and transfers, and the rise of apps that seamlessly interact with user-controlled personal data stores.

Koodos

Shelf is a digital storefront for your taste & your new personal data manager.

It's built using DataMover, a toolkit for secure, user-permissioned integrations that lets you get user data from any site or app — even if it doesn't have an API. 



We believe that the way consumers and businesses interact with their data will drastically improve in the next few years. Koodos Labs is building the products and infrastructure that’ll usher this shift and you'll be essential in achieving this vision.We’re looking for an experienced, thoughtful senior product backend engineer to accelerate our product development. This is a backend role, with a strong collaborative element.We’re early stage, so you'll have an outsized equity stake and an unparalleled opportunity to shape the product direction.&nbsp;Engineers at koodos labs decide what gets built and why, in addition to figuring out how.&nbsp;

# Why join koodos labs?

---

You should join koodos labs for **the people** and **our mission**.

We aspire to build the best team of the 2020s. Just like PayPal in the 90s, Google in the 00s, and Stripe in the 10s, we want to be known as "a place where it's good to be from." If you join us, we promise to be the best place to grow your career — with the best people you've ever worked with. We’re also working on a very bold mission.

We care deeply about **helping people connect more deeply with themselves and others**. And in the spirit of personal empowerment, we aim to invert the internet's data model over time and put individuals in control of their digital identities.

# What we’re building

---

We’re building [Shelf](http://get.shelf.im/). It's a digital shelf that updates as you consume content online. You can control what shows up on your shelf, and see when people you know are watching, reading or listening to the same thing. 

We believe that the way consumers and businesses interact with their data will drastically improve in the next few years. So we’ve built our apps on top of infrastructure that allows you to reclaim control over your consumption and interest data, and provision third-party access to it to personalize experiences without compromising your privacy. 

![Group 2.png](https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/secure.notion-static.com/6b6b6366-1bd6-4eef-aa0e-8ed395d8d413/Group_2.png)

# The **Opportunity**

---

We believe that the way consumers and businesses interact with their data will drastically improve in the next few years. Koodos Labs is building the products and infrastructure that’ll usher this shift and you'll be essential in achieving this vision.

We’re looking for an experienced, thoughtful senior software engineer to accelerate our product development. This is a backend-leaning role, with a strong collaborative element.

In this role you will:

- Work directly with our CTO *(ex-founder & led product & engineering teams at Improbable)* and our small but mighty team of founding engineers
- Collaborate on building the APIs used by Shelf for new product features and experiences
- Build the services, pipelines, and data to power new product capabilities
- Support long-term scalability of our architecture as more users join and use Shelf
- Ensure code and product quality
- Implement engineering best practices across development and deployment
- Guide/mentor other engineers (note: this is an IC role; if you're looking for a pure Engineering Manager role, this isn't the best fit)

We’re early stage, so you'll have an outsized equity stake and an unparalleled opportunity to shape the product direction. **Engineers at koodos labs decide what gets built and why, in addition to figuring out how.** 

We're NY-based (we have our own office in West Soho) and we work in-person.

# Our Team

We're well resourced (unannounced rounds) & backed by top-tier investors, including the backers of companies like Airbnb, Pinterest, Snap, and Twitter, as well as the founders of companies like Zynga, VSCO, and Scale and the people behind artists like Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber, Lorde, Logic, and Panic! At The Disco, and many others. Our team is advised by the founders of Pinterest, Dubsmash (now Reddit), as well as pioneers of digital marketing and market design from Harvard. 

We care about building a genuinely diverse team. We are a majority-first gen immigrant team and sponsor visas — we think that’s important as we build towards enabling easier digital migration. We share the same values of individuality, empathy, reliability, kindness and humility. One big overlap among our life experiences is *contrasts*: contrasts between our own upbringing and the world around us, contrasts between what was expected of us and what we ended up pursuing and our bringing together of contrasting, interdisciplinary worlds.

- **Adaptability:** Startupy & comfortable adapting rapidly while remaining focused on a goal.
- **Startup Experience:** You know that building great companies takes a lot of work. Seed-stage companies can offer some of the most challenging, invigorating, and rewarding experiences in tech — quite simply, koodos labs is different from Big Tech. It helps if you’ve experienced the ups and downs of startup life before, but so long as you’re excited for an adventure, we’re excited to have you join.

# What you'll do

---

**Day 1:** You’ll merge your first PR. We want our developer experience to be as smooth as possible, so this first day is a good test of how we’re doing on dev ops. The code changes will be very minor — just adding your name to a file and merging it to the main branch.

**Day 7:** You’ll ship your first feature to production. We believe in learning-by-doing, so we’ll assign you a small feature that lets you run through our full feature planning and development pipeline. We’ll make sure you have support at every step along the way.

**Day 50:** You’ll help ship code across the backend, from services to CI/CD. As an early-stage startup, we have high-impact features all across our codebase, and you’ll be able to build solutions wherever the need arises.

**In the Future:** You’ll become a senior leader at koodos labs. We expect the early team to grow into high-impact roles as the company scales.

# How we interview

---

We lean heavily on prior experience, demonstrated ability, and references. We don’t want to have brilliant people inverting binary trees or solving riddles.

**Interviews:** We start the interview process with a conversation with our CEO to hear more about your prior experience and goals, and to tell you more about koodos labs. If we both think there’s a potential fit, we’ll have a second interview with a deep-dive on your prior experiences with our CTO or a senior engineer on our founding team.

At this point, we might ask a few follow-up questions over email, for example we might ask for you to share a project + repo that you've worked on that you're particularly proud of, and a short video taking us through it -- 15-20 minutes should be enough.

**Onsite:** We’ll invite you to meet the team! It’ll be a series of practical whiteboarding sessions with team members and an opportunity to grab lunch with us 🙂

**References:** After the interview stage, we ask for 2-3 references who would be willing to discuss their experiences working with you. We will also likely reach out to other folks that you’ve worked with in the past, so please do let us know if there’s anyone we shouldn’t reach out to. We’ll make sure to be respectful of their time; most calls take about 15 minutes. And we also offer you the opportunity to reference check us!

**Decision:** This part’s on us, and we promise to move fast.

We're NY-based (we have our own office in West Soho) and we work in-person.

Software Engineer (General)

Senior/Staff Engineer in SF Bay Area, on-site 4x/week. Experience at scale (Series C+), customer-focused, fullstack preferred. Previous "big tech" experience ideal; aiming for entrepreneurs-to-be. No visa sponsorship. Salary $160K-$220K. Responsibilities: Ownership, autonomy, technical direction, mentorship. Join Complete's mission to revolutionize compensation strategies.

Complete (YC W22) is changing the way fast-growth companies &amp; startups like Render, Linear, Vercel and DataStax think about compensation. We’ve grown our revenue 3x this year and are at an inflection point where we need to grow our team significantly over the next 6 months.

Co-founder & CTO

Complete (YC W22)

Complete is on a mission to make compensation a winning advantage for the world's highest-impact companies. We are breaking compensation workflows out from spreadsheets and bringing them into the 21st century — think leveling and compensation cycle planning, total rewards statements for employees, interactive candidate offers and much more!Why Complete? We realize that Compensation is a key determinant to a company's success (and their biggest spend!). Yet, enterprises lack the expertise to build and operate a defensible compensation strategy, making it one of the most costly mistakes to their financial and operational efficiency. We believe that companies with creative compensation strategies do and will continue to win. Our customers include highly impactful startups like Render, Vercel, Brex, Linear, and Cortex, all the way to world-class enterprises like Roblox.Complete is backed by Accel and YC. We're also lucky to count technology leaders and operators like Will Larson (CTO of Carta), Eric Sagar (COO of Plaid), Mathilde Collin (CEO of Front) as our angels and/or advisors. Our ARR has grown 3x since Jan of this year, and we're hitting an inflection point where we need stellar engineers (like you!) to come join us.

Founding Senior/Staff Engineer

We work in person out of our office at 100 Bush St in SF.

Note: because we have a pretty senior eng team, we are open to new grad hires as well if they have good internship experience
Note: 5 years of experience isn’t a hard cap, but we’ve found it’s much harder to convince sr+ engineer to join an early stage startup, especially given seniority of our team
(nice to have) Interest in productivity tools
(nice to have) experience building product / features that uses LLM
