Job Description
GetGround is developing the infrastructure for a global digital marketplace for assets enveloped in companies. Trillions of dollars of assets are tied in inefficient illiquid markets - think property, ships, factory machinery & infrastructure to name a few.
Enveloping an asset in a company unlocks liquidity by enabling the right legal basis for asset ownership, governance and exchange. However companies, one of humanity's greatest inventions, are stuck in the past. We are digitising and automating the company, through:
Programmatic incorporation and administration
e-wallet financial infrastructure
Automated accounting incorporating machine learning techniques and
A secondary market platform built for scale
To start, we're tackling UK private residential investment property, with Ā£1.3 trillion of stock and Ā£30-50 billion in transactions a year.

The role comes with immense scope for growth and impact in a zero-ego, zero-BS environment. Weāre building a team that works together to solve hard problems that will enable us to achieve our mission to make assets more transparent, trustworthy and accessible.
In this role, you will develop:
Technical rigour through collaborative, multi-disciplinary and thorough refinement processes. We want hackers and painters!
Simple, clear and concise communication and documentation of technical ideas
A challenger mindset - to implement new patterns and libraries, and to improve readability and efficiency
What you will do
Working in a cross functional, collaborative team, you will participate in the entire application lifecycle, from architecting to development, testing and review
You will design and write clean documentation
You will work closely with product to design functionality
You will collaborate with Frontend developers to integrate user-facing elements with server side logic
You will provide training and support to internal teams. We believe in constant learning and growing - everybody learns from each other
You will build reusable code and libraries for future use
The experience you will have
Solid familiarity with programming languages such as (in order of desirability) Golang, C++, Java, Rust, ES6, Python
A passion for good design and architecture, including in the context of large-scale web applications
Systematic problem solving approach and knowledge of algorithms, data structures and complexity analysis
Experience with unit testing, integration testing, or similar testing frameworks
A passion for good documentation
Experience with database technologies like SQL, noSQL, key-value stores (e.g. mySQL, Postgres, MongoDB, Redisā¦)
Experience with cloud technologies such as Google Cloud or AWS.
A desire to build large-scale technology that can change the world for the better

Job Description
What if owning things was no longer important? What if expensive, niche items could be available to you in seconds? And what if you could generate an extra income from your own belongings? At Fat Llama, we're already bringing about that future. We believe that one day, owning those things we only occasionally need will be as ridiculous as buying a house every time you want to go on holiday.
Our users enjoy on-demand access to anything from high-end cameras to drones to campervans. As a result, they're doing, creating and achieving incredible things every day. Income from rentals is changing the lives of many of our lenders, too - whether it's paying their rent or allowing them to drop corporate jobs and focus on passion projects.
The herd's growing fast, too. Last year we went through Y Combinator and recently announced a $10M raise from amazing investors to superpower our growth and focus on American growth.
Our Technology
Technology is at the heart of everything we do at Fat Llama, allowing us to solve a problem that has never been solved before. Our whole team gets a say in the product & tech roadmap, and our engineering team takes pride in writing, testing and deploying new features on a daily basis.

You should also be excited about helping shape the direction and culture of our engineering team going forward.
Are you excited by the prospect of learning new technologies? In a rapidly changing and growing startup, youāll be required to wear many different hats. Whether it be designing scalable systems, building tools to help our Operations team keep the business running, or slicing and dicing data for our analytics dashboards, you should welcome the challenge. You should thrive in a constantly changing environment and enjoy learning new things at a fast pace.
Our team takes pride in owning our work truly end-to-end. Weāre looking for people who can plan, experiment, build, test, deploy, measure and iterate before calling it done. As a small team, we try and build on the shoulders of giants, which means that youāll often find us working with the latest and greatest technologies.
You might be a good fit for the role if you:
Want to work in a team that values teamwork, learning and collaboration.
Love writing clean, elegant code that other people can read.
Have a deep understanding of at least two programming languages or paradigms.
Have experience mentoring and teaching other engineers.
Have led engineering projects from conception to delivery
Have expertise in designing and building web services or APIs.
Take pride in your fastidious approach to testing your code.
Have a real passion for user experience. Every. Llama. Counts.
We would be thrilled if you also had:
Experience building distributed systems or microservices.
Android, iOS or React Native work under your belt.
A deep understanding of JavaScript or Golang.
Experience working with and launching cloud based services.
If you donāt feel like you fit all of these areas, donāt worry. We are dedicated to the development of our team. Whether youāre a computer science graduate, an artist or a bricklayer, as long as youāre also a programmer, weād love to hear from you.
Please note that the package for this role will include equity.
Applicants with less experience may want to consider applying for our software engineer role.
