ALBERT | REMOTE ALMOST ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD| Hiring principal and distinguished engineers to build net new products | up to ~ $750k Hiring: exceptional consumer product engineers at Albert. We're a consumer fintech with 25M+ users who trust us to budget, save, invest, and bank in one place. Profitable for 4+ years. And as of today, our average employee tenure is 3.6 years, a number you almost never see in startup tech, and one we're quietly proud of. People stay because the work is good, the people are sharp, and we've built something worth staying for. Now we're building net-new consumer products from zero, and we're looking for people who love to tinker and build stuff to ship them with us. The kind of person we're looking for: • Top fraction of a percentile in craft, the kind of good that's hard to fake • Builds for fun, not just for work. The kind who ships a working prototype over the weekend and can't help themselves • Comfortable owning 0 to 1 consumer products end-to-end • Allergic to politics, theater, and bureaucracy What you get: • Remote, anywhere with reasonable timezone overlap (and for someone truly exceptional, we'll make async work) • Real scale from day one (20M+ users, real money, real consequences) • Compensation that beats the market. We pay well and we mean it. Base, discretionary year-end bonus, meaningful 401(k) match, and meaningful equity in a profitable, growing unicorn (the kind that's actually worth something) • Platinum PPO health benefits with Blue Shield, top of the top of the line, covering your entire family • A mission worth your time: make money simple, so people spend less time managing it and keep more of it • Small senior-heavy teams, direct ownership, no layers • Forthcoming with the business metrics that matter, so you always know how the company is actually doing • The startup perks done right: catered lunches, wellness stipend, team offsites, casual dress. The stuff that compounds when you're showing up engaged for years, not months • Profitable for 4+ years, so you build with conviction, not runway anxiety Stack: python, claude, postgres, react.js /react native If this is you, email us at recruiting@albert.com Edit: we are in the process of rebuilding our career site to speak to how we hire (e.g. hunt, dont post, find the best). Just an FYI Also, we carefully review every application. If we think there may be a fit, we'll reach out within a few business days. Either way, thank you for your interest in what we're building and for taking the time to connect with us.
