Job descriptions don't tend to be very helpful. Here's some things you probably care about:

• Everybody on the team is smart and down-to-earth. No jerks or egomaniacs. We optimize for talent density—the minimum number of smartest possible people.
• You won’t spend more than 4 hours in scheduled meetings per week on average, including your team’s scheduled huddles and standups. We get most meetings done on Mondays to maximize focus time.
• As the 4th engineer on the team, you’ll be ~25% of the engineering capacity—a huge potential for impact.
• We ship a lot of good stuff quickly. We accomplish this because we expect ownership, a high bar for quality, and are very critical about scope creep.
• We’re attempting to solve one of the only remaining truly unsolved problems on the web and we’ve found a wedge to actually do it. The momentum we have with our work makes it fun.
• There are things we suck at, things that are broken, fires raging, etc. You need to be comfortable with that and be willing to make Trinsic better, while accepting that a fire might need to keep burning for a bit.

A little bit about our technical stack

Our team doesn’t specialize yet, so you’ll likely contribute across the stack. Our backend is .NET (C#), frontend is React, cloud is Azure, and use GitHub for hosting code and automating builds/deployments.

Our optimization for talent density means that we are eager adopters of tools like Cursor and other tools you’d like to use to maximize productivity.

A little bit about you

We try to hire people who will do the work of their lives at Trinsic. That person is likely:

• A well-rounded product engineer who is primarily interested in solving problems and building a great company.
• Has experience in early-stage and/or fast-growth startups. Ideally you will have contributed across the stack.
• A great asynchronous communicator who is excited to work on a remote team.
• Able to balance the pragmatic short-term needs of the business with the longer term roadmap.
• Full of ambition and drive to make a dent in the universe. We love former founders and prospective founders (~half our current team are former founders). Past engineers have become founders who’ve collectively raised $10m+ or gone on to places like Coinbase, Palentir, Palo Alto Networks, Flexport, etc.
• Knows they’re going to move the needle for whichever company they join—and therefore is excited about getting above-market equity as part of a competitive comp package. Read more here: Compensation Philosophy
