Senior Backend Developer (Haskell) | AlphaSheets | up to $150k (depends on level of hire and equity tradeoff) + equity | Bay Area
We're building the future of spreadsheets: collaborative, programmable in multiple languages, and highly extensible. We think spreadsheets haven't reached their full potential as a general computing platform. We envision a world where many more people are able to code thanks to the intuitive interface of a spreadsheet, where non-technical and technical analysts can share the same interface to data, and where everything from fully-featured data analysis and visualization apps to new spreadsheet functions can be shared, Google-Sheets style, on the AlphaSheets platform. We're an ambitious company with plenty of runway.
If you're an opinionated functional programming proponent who hacks in Scala, Clojure, or Haskell in their free time, that's a great sign of a fit. Experience is a plus, but not a must as long as you're really smart. Doesn't matter if you don't know Haskell as long as you can learn. We have a React/Flow/Haskell stack. We love seeking leverage through good architecture, languages (Haskell!), frameworks, and tools.
You'll be joining a team of 4 MIT dropouts (among them, one owned a multimillion-dollar Bitcoin mine in high school, two were USA Math Olympiad winners, and one made ~$300k on stat-arb trading in high school).
