ROE is a hypergrowth startup in the SF Bay Area building Cursor for Financial Compliance. Today, ROE is trusted by multiple public companies representing $400B+ in combined market cap.
Y Combinator, Google AI Ventures, Ardent Ventures, the CEO of Snowflake, and senior leaders from LinkedIn and top fintechs back us.
What you'll do
- Build AI agent platform to serve risk and compliance in trillion-dollar financial industry (don't worry if you don't know anything about finance)
- Build mission critical features for Fortune 500 customers
- Operate as one team: own problems end-to-end, review each other’s code, and move quickly.
What you won’t do
- Bureaucracy. No 3-month approvals to launch a feature.
- Politics. No fighting other teams for headcount or scope.
- Build for the void. We ship what customers actually need.
You may be a great fit if
- You’re a new grad hungry to learn, or an industry veteran tired of red tape and ready to bet on upside.
- You want to learn how to build a startup from the inside.
- You’re comfortable with: Python, Cursor, cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP/Azure), and agent frameworks.
- People describe you as obsessed, curious, and resourceful.
This role isn’t for you if
- You’re looking to rest & vest.
- You can’t commit to intense weeks (we sometimes run 6-day sprints).
- You’re not among the top 5% builders in your network.
- You can’t be in the office 3 days/week (hybrid in SF Bay Area).
Requirements
- At least 5+ year software engineer work experience.
- 3+ year infrastructure on cloud expertise
- Big plus on hands-on experience on kubernetes
- Have led 5-people + projects
- Tracked history of getting along well with PMs and Designers.
- Communicative to internal stakeholders and external customers
Perks & benefits
- Epic offsites (e.g., Napa Valley Wine Train, speed sailing under the Golden Gate Bridge).
- Daily lunch stipend—order what you actually want.
- Medical, dental, vision, and standard insurance.
- Hybrid work: in-office collaboration + focused WFH days.
