Job Description
Pulley's mission is to make it easier for anyone to start a company. We strongly believe that more startups should be created, and that founder-led companies are more successful in the long term.

If you would like to join our mission of helping more founders start companies, let’s talk!
🙋 Why Join Pulley?
Pulley is looking for a senior backend engineer to join our team. More than anything, we seek engineers with strong coding fundamentals. We work in a highly collaborative environment. Our team is still small, and people wear many hats. You will have the opportunity to jump between engineering, product, customer support, design - participating in every part of the business from idea to production.
Our stack:
Golang backend
React and Apollo front end with GraphQL and Hasura
🔑 Key Responsibilities
Implement best practices with Golang
Design, build, and deploy features end to end - We ship daily. You are responsible for breaking down high level features into tasks that can ship to prod.
Code quickly and test thoroughly - Maintain the balance between velocity and code health.
Work on a team - Collaborate with other engineers to design and architect features. Know when to ask for help when you are stuck.
Build improvements to performance and reliability
Write well-documented, clean, testable code
🧩 Pulley may be a good fit if:
You are a fast learner - You can readily learn most technologies as you go.
You understand the business implications beyond engineering - You are not just coding cool stuff. You understand the balance between engineering, speed, and the bottom line.
Strong work ethic and willingness to do what it takes to deliver results
Entrepreneurial, with a high tolerance for ambiguity
🧧 Benefits & Salary
We want to build a small team of exceptional people. We will compensate you for your experience.
Our benefits including:
Generous health insurance
Unlimited vacations
Commuting & food
🙌 Who we are
We are a small and well funded startup based out of downtown Mountain View. Our investors include Y Combinator, General Catalyst, Caffeinated Capital, 8vc, Elad Gil, among others. We are a team of six engineers with experience from Google, Microsoft, Docker, Pebble, and more. There are two Y Combinator alumni on the team and an engineer who has climbed Everest. Yin (founder) sold her last company to MSFT.
We started Pulley because most of us have worked at early stage startups and have found equity to be confusing. We want to help builders and creators grow and own more of their company in the long term.

About Venafi
Venafi is the undisputed heavyweight champion in Machine Identity Protection. Why? Because we created the category and are light years ahead of anyone that would consider competing! Gartner has recognized Venafi as number one in our space and as it turns out, one is NOT the loneliest number!
Venafi is the inventor of the technology that secures and protects keys and certificates. Venafi protects machine identity types by orchestrating cryptographic keys and digital certificates for SSL/TLS, IoT, mobile and SSH. Many of the largest organizations in the world use Venafi.
Billions of dollars have been spent protecting usernames and passwords and almost nothing protecting keys and certificates—organizations are just now realizing that protecting keys and certificates is as important as protecting usernames and passwords. The bad guys know this and are using stolen or forged keys and certificates to attack networks and steal data. In fact, Gartner says 50% of network attacks will use certificates.
Level (https://level.io) is an exciting startup that will soon be entering the remote monitoring and management space. We're fans of the "Lean Startup" methodology and after many customer conversations, we're almost ready to launch our MVP. We feel like this space is stale with older products that offer a poor user experience. Our product features a simple interface and exciting technology that none of our competitors are utilizing.
We're backed by the founders of a very successful Managed Service Provider (MSP). They have extensive experience in the IT space and have proven invaluable in helping us validate that we are building the correct thing.
Salary
$110,000 - $115,000
Level Senior Engineer Role
Level is building a modern remote management and monitoring solution. We are a small team that is well funded and close to launching to our early access customers. We are searching for a strong, multi-talented individual contributor who is comfortable with systems-level programming and networking who can contribute to our agent, written in Go.
Must-Haves
Deep knowledge of a systems language like C, Rust, or Go.
Not afraid to dig into an RFC. Low-level internals excites you, rather than scare you away.
Experience with system-level APIs in Windows (win32), macOS, and/or Linux.
Excellent written communicator.
Willing to learn and work with Go.
Nice-to-Haves
Significant WebRTC experience. You have built something with Pion.
C/Objective-C experience, sometimes using system APIs means writing bindings to use in Go.
Video encoding experience. You have worked with H264 and understand the spec.
Building cross-platform libraries, our Go agent compiles to Windows, Darwin, and Linux on a variety of architectures.
Things you might work on
Building a cross-platform interface to query the active processes on an OS and transmit them over a WebRTC Data Channel to our web app.
Working with libav to create a custom h264 encoder to reduce the latency and bandwidth of streaming a device.
Creating a system tray GUI for the agent.
Securely allowing scripts to be executed against a machine and piping the results over a WebSocket connection.
Why you might want to work with us
We are a small, fully remote engineering team, and there are no layers of bureaucracy. You can have a huge impact here.
We are very flexible with working hours, we don't expect you to work a consistent block of time, we trust you to get your work done.
We are on the cusp of launching our MVP and starting to grow.
We will offer profit sharing so our small team will receive dividends on profits the company makes.
More About Us
We are a startup headquartered in beautiful downtown Asheville, NC. We are a small, close-knit team working to upend the RMM market with a new product. Our CEO and leadership team have done extensive product research and are focusing on traction channels to grow while the product is being built. Though we are a startup, our investors have given us a multi-year runway.
We have already made substantial progress towards an MVP. We need someone to come in and help finish our Go agent who is an experienced self-starter that can make an impact on our product development. We aren't interested in someone that just wants to work down a list of pre-defined tasks. Our ideal candidate loves working on products and will help shape the direction of ours. We hope to launch within the next couple of months and want someone to come on this journey with us.
We really like the Basecamp philosophy and try to make sure that it doesn’t have to be crazy at work. We won’t ask that you work weekends, or late into the night. We don’t mind if you need to leave for an appointment in the middle of the day. We understand that software development doesn’t happen for 8 hours straight and don’t worry about counting time in the chair. We trust that given a fair timeline with a scope that you help us determine you will be able to deliver features. We are concerned with the end goal, not micromanaging you on the way there.
Pay
We're looking for someone great, but are an early-stage startup. We are offering a rate of $110-$115k plus (eventually) profit sharing. We know you could make more elsewhere, but this is an opportunity to jump onto a startup that has the chance to grow quickly in revenue where our profit sharing will ensure you are compensated for the value you bring.

We are Octopus Energy Hatchery, an autonomous arm of Octopus Energy, based in North Bristol. We develop new ideas into companies in the energy and sustainability sector. Although, if we spot an opportunity in another market we’ll certainly look into it! We do the market research, business model development, user research, user testing, and software development to establish the viability of a future business.
Who’s in my team?
You’ll be part of a small cross-functional team that covers design, user testing, product management and software development. You’ll be leading on the software development.
As we are a small team, we are not limited or tied to any process, you will play a big part in shaping the culture of the Hatchery.
What technology will I be using?
You’ll be leading on this so it’s up to you, whatever you think is the right technology for the product. We will expect you to cover all aspects of development from spikes, initial discovery work to testing and release of products.
Don’t expect to just be writing code though, everyone gets involved in idea generation / discussion, business questions, user research (you won’t have to do the interviews). Everyone brings a different viewpoint to a problem and we value that diverse thinking.
What happens if I develop a concept that I really love and want to follow?
We really hope this happens as it shows your passion for the problem. As long as we can find someone to replace you in the Hatchery then we won’t stand in your way. The new company will be part of our wider group so you won’t be that far removed anyway!
We are looking for someone with the follow skills / experience:
Full stack developer
AWS/GCP
CI/CD specifically circleCI

Job Description
Head of Engineering
We are seeking a hands-on Head of Engineering for our well funded e-commerce fulfillment startup
At Bezos, our vision is to Deliver Happiness: For our team, for the end consumers, for our e-commerce sellers as well as our logistics partners.
Exciting times in e-commerce: E-commerce sales in Europe is projected to be £406 billion by 2023, expected to grow 8% per year between 2018-2023. The growth is driven by consumers that increasingly buy more online as well as the emergence of small and medium e-commerce sellers, which have grown at 18% and 28% per year, respectively between 2009-2017. There are 200,000 small and medium e-commerce sellers in the UK alone, selling their products through multiple channels, including marketplaces such as Amazon and eBay, their own websites, and on social media like Facebook and Instagram. Today, these small and medium sellers are ignored by the large incumbent logistics service providers and we are on a mission to change that.
Building a next generation Fulfillment-as-a-Service platform: With this explosive growth in e-commerce, the demand for e-commerce fulfilment and delivery is booming. Bezos is a next generation Fulfillment-as-a-Service (FaaS) platform, that allows small and medium e-commerce sellers to outsource their storage, fulfilment, delivery, and returns and focus on what is more important: growing their businesses. Bezos’ operational model is based on partnering with certified logistics suppliers that will execute the different services on our behalf. We believe there is a massive market opportunity to serve these currently unattended and fast growing small and medium e-commerce sellers. We believe that the e-commerce logistics landscape will give place to significant disruption opportunities, and we are planning on taking a leading role to achieve them.
Two founders with proven track records: The founding team consists of Diego Lijtmaer and Vernon Tjon-Soei-Len, who are two seasoned technology executives with experience in e-commerce, the gig economy and last mile delivery industry. Diego built the business development and logistics functions at Just Eat Plc (food delivery, FTSE 100), founded and ran a hospitality business Bacanal and worked in investment banking at UBS (LinkedIn profile here). Vernon was the Director of Amazon Flex UK (part of Amazon’s Last Mile Product & Technology team) and part of the Senior Leadership Team of Amazon Logistics UK, and prior to that worked at Zipcar, Bain & Company and JPMorgan (LinkedIn profile here).
We are looking for an exceptional technology leader: Someone that gets excited about the adventure of a startup and wants to build a world class billion dollar business. Someone that enjoys transforming industries, that enjoys changing the way businesses and consumers think about delivering and receiving e-commerce orders. Someone that is hands on, solves problems, and gets their hands dirty in the execution. Someone that has a demonstrated track record of building amazing technology and building and leading high performance tech teams.
