MixRank (YC S11) | Software Engineers | 100% REMOTE (Global) | Full-Time MixRank processes petabytes of data every month from web crawling. We have hundreds of customers using our data products including Google, Amazon, Facebook, Intel, and Adobe, across industries including Finance, Recruiting, Sales, Marketing, and Security. We’re a fully-remote company with a global footprint in over 20 countries. We're growing, profitable, employee-owned, no dependence on outside funding. Applicants from all geographies and backgrounds are welcome. We are looking for passionate individuals for whom programming is not just a job but it’s something they love to do. We're obsessed with computers, programming, big data, databases, compilers, hardware, math, data science, and the internet. Does this sound like you? Please apply to join our team. Our code base is very friendly to new contributors. You'll have a fully-functional development environment within hours (fully automated) and be pushing commits on your first day. Deployments to production happen multiple times per day and finish in less than 2 minutes. Effectively all of our codebase is written in Python, Rust, SQL, Javascript/TypeScript, and Nix. The core technologies you'll need familiarity with to be productive are Python, PostgreSQL, Linux, and Git. We operate at a larger scale than typical startups. We operate two datacenters with high performance servers we've built that are capable of dealing with the volumes of data we process. We've implemented our own distributed file system. We do full-scale web crawls. We download and perform static analysis on the entire universe of Android APKs and iOS IPAs that are published. Unlike a typical startup where you'll spend half of your time in meetings, and the other half fixing bugs from Jira tickets— at MixRank you'll get to challenge yourself with difficult technical problems that will help you to grow as an individual.

We're hiring continuously for the positions below— they aren't singular positions that will close once filled. Our philosophy on hiring is that the candidate is more important than the position. For each new member of the team, we design a custom role and responsibilities that are specialized to their interests. Other companies will come up with a long list of specific requirements for a position with the expectation that you'll exactly replace someone from the team, or that you'll be the perfect tetris piece that satisfies the job requirements decided by a committee. MixRank is more pragmatic: we'll first get excited about having a unique individual on the team, then we'll figure out the best way to accommodate their specific talents.

-- Junior Software Engineer - Remote (Global), Full-Time

We're looking for remote junior engineers that have 0-3 years of professional experience in software, and 5+ years of curiosity exploring computers, programming, and technical hobby projects.

To stand out, please highlight what makes you unique: passion for computing, curiosity and side projects, work ethic, niche research, etc.

Ideally you've already graduated, but if you still have one or more years left of school, please feel free to apply anyway, and if you're the right fit for the team we'll figure out a way to accommodate your schedule. https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/mixrank/jobs/Fnwsojk-j... --

Kepler | Full Stack Engineer | New York, NY | ONSITE | $230K-$260K + equity

We're building the trust layer for AI in high-stakes industries. https://kepler.ai

LLMs hallucinate, so they can't be the thing producing your numbers. In Kepler, the LLM orchestrates (decides what data to gather, what to compute, how to structure the output), but the model never touches the data itself. Every actual value flows through deterministic code pipelines with provenance metadata back to source. Verification loops cross-check outputs before users see them.

We started in finance because tolerance for wrong answers is zero. First product is a research platform for buy-side analysts: pull comparables, build models, research filings. Same architecture extends to chemicals, legal, healthcare. Models are commoditizing fast; the trust layer is what's missing.

If you want the deeper architecture writeup, Anthropic just published a case study on Kepler: https://claude.com/blog/how-kepler-built-verifiable-ai-for-f...

What you'd build:

- Source-explorer UI that traces any value back to its exact origin in the original document - Extraction pipeline for a data source we don't yet handle, with provenance and verification from day one - Agent orchestrator that handles partial failures so a bad extraction from one source doesn't block parallel work - Verification rules that cross-check values across multiple sources and surface conflicts with provenance on both sides

Stack: Rust backend (orchestration, extraction, computation), TypeScript/React frontend, PostgreSQL, AWS. Model-agnostic, currently Claude + GPT. We don't require Rust experience; we hire on fundamentals.

Looking for 5 years production experience, strong in TypeScript/React, comfortable in backend work. Bonus if you've built systems where correctness mattered (payments, data infra, healthcare, anything where a wrong output has consequences). Distributed systems basics: concurrency, fault tolerance, retries, idempotency.

Founding team is 40+ combined years at Palantir building Foundry's core systems (Ontology, Fusion, Workshop, FoundryML). CEO scaled a data company to $15M ARR, sold it, then ran Business Engineering at Citadel. Backed by founders of OpenAI, Meta AI Research, MotherDuck, dbt Labs.

In-office NYC.
