$140,000.00/yr - $220,000.00/yr About Coverbase
Coverbase
is built on a dense network of counterparty trust and risk. Over the past 50 years, companies have moved from a handful of wholesalers and vendors to 100+ SaaS vendors, contract partners, and cloud providers. Each counterparty has unique internal processes and risk profiles, leading businesses to spend millions conducting due diligence.
Coverbase’s mission
is to streamline this business-to-business assessment, reducing human toil and allowing organizations to work together safely and reliably. We employ modern AI techniques to organize vast amounts of unstructured data and compare them against policies to identify key risks to the business. We already serve customers across Fortune 500 companies in insurance, higher education, and finance, including five of the top 25 banks in the U.S. Our proven leadership team brings deep experience:
Clarence (CEO) : Co‑founder & former CTO of Unit21,
Kao (CTO) : Previously led the Stripe engineering team that launched Banking‑as‑a‑Service. We’ve raised $20 M from world‑class investors and our team of 12 has built important products at Google, Mapbox, and Waymo. Founding Product Engineer
We're seeking a
Founding Product Engineer
to develop foundational components of our product and anchor the culture and spirit of the team. We care more about slope than y‑intercept. Formal education or prior domain knowledge is not strictly required, but a fierce can‑do attitude and a desire to make something of yourself certainly is. We also value people who care about their teammates and building a kind, talented team. Responsibilities
Design, build, and iterate on end‑to‑end web products that are robust and delight our users. Own the full development lifecycle, from brainstorming to deployment, ensuring platform scalability and reliability. Contribute across the stack, whether developing backend services (typed Python), frontend interfaces (React/Typescript), evolving our Postgres database layer, or shaping AWS infrastructure with Pulumi. Innovate on our AI systems—custom chunking algorithms, vector databases, and private LLMs—to deliver accurate, auditable assessments. Foster a constructive environment for code reviews, mentoring, and knowledge sharing. Requirements
Strong foundational software engineering skills: efficient in your dev environment, confident with Git, seasoned at debugging, and able to provide high‑quality code reviews. Ability to thrive in a dynamic, early‑stage startup environment. Immediate productivity in at least one area of our stack (React frontends, Python backends, AI systems, or AWS infrastructure). Why join us?
Strong product addressing a latent market demand: Our AI‑driven platform is transforming third‑party risk management (TPRM) for top‑tier financial institutions. Founding‑level impact: shape the product, engineering culture, and trajectory of the company. Collaborative team: tight‑knit, mission‑driven group that values kindness, creativity, and curiosity as much as expertise. What we offer
$140K to $220K base (dependent on experience and ability) Meaningful founding equity Health insurance 21 days of PTO In‑person gatherings within the U.S. (travel covered) every 3‑5 months – we’ll give plenty of notice and cover flights and accommodation.
