Senior Software Engineer, Accounting hybrid / Full Time New York City, NY / San Francisco, CA

We exist to accelerate innovation by increasing the number of successful startups in the world. We want to give more people the opportunity to participate in the venture economy by building the financial infrastructure that makes it possible for more people to invest in world changing startups, and build tools for startups that help them run their operations so they can focus on building. AngelList is the nexus of venture capital and the startup community. We support over $171B+ assets on our platform, and we’ve driven capital to over 13,000 startups. 57% of top-tier U.S. VC deals involve investors on AngelList. While our scale is large, our ambitions are even larger – we’re innovating on the financial infrastructure for venture investors and the startups they invest in. Come build with us. About the Role: AngelList's business depends on getting money from investors into funds, which then deploy that capital into startups. We track all these money movements and investors’ legal rights in our system. Traditionally, all of this work is done manually. At AngelList, we support $171B in assets. To grow to 1T, we're building software that automates the manual work of accountants. Our ability to automate fund administration via accounting infrastructure is the crux to pioneer new types of access to venture capital. We need to continue to automate accountant workflows and beef up how data flows through our full system. An ideal candidate for this team will have heavy backend experience, love solving ambiguous problems, and enjoy communicating with non-technical users. You will have a lot of autonomy and ownership – including owning data modeling, Rails APIs, and the React frontend that surfaces that data to customers. You will have the opportunity to: Model financial workflows—turning messy, real-world fund data into accurate and automated financials. Build scalable accounting software infrastructure—improving how financial data is reported on the front-end, and build out how we read/write to our general ledger on the backend. Solve hard data integrity problems—ensuring our system produces reliable and audit-ready outputs across a growing universe of funds. Collaborate directly with accounting stakeholders in a tight feedback loop, turning their manual processes into automated systems. Work with other highly talented and self-motivated colleagues driven by the same mission. You are most likely: A senior back-end engineer (Ruby on Rails or similar MVC frameworks) with 5+ years of experience, capable of owning features end to end and venturing into the frontend (React, TypeScript). Understand financial workflows or eager to dive deep into fund accounting, transaction processing, and general ledger systems. You are excited about the details of how money flows through the venture system. Thrive on complexity—modeling ambiguous problems, messy data, and evolving business requirements in a relational database (Postgres, MySQL or similar) where every record is critical. Build for reliability—designing systems to produce audit-ready financial outputs, not best-effort calculations. Customer-oriented to solve complex business problems in collaboration with users in finance and accounting. Execution-focused, comfortable with balancing tradeoffs and making progress in a fast-moving environment. Deeply in love with startups, having worked in at least one! You may have even founded one yourself or hope to start a company in the future. If you don’t tick every box above, we’d still encourage you to apply. We’re building a diverse team whose skills balance and complement one another. AngelList has offices in a few cities with our engineering hub in San Francisco. For this role only, we’re open to hiring out of either our SF or New York City offices , where engineers and product teams can collaborate in the office at least twice per week (Tuesdays and choice between Wednesday or Thursday). Compensation: The compensation for this role consists of a competitive base salary, benefits, and equity package. The base salary for this role starts at $200,000+ annually but will vary based on a number of factors including a candidate’s professional background, experience, level, and location. Additional details about our Total Rewards package will be provided during the recruitment process. Benefits: We support our employees in their lives both inside and outside of work. Working at AngelList: At AngelList, we are united in our purpose to accelerate innovation and build the future of private markets. Our beliefs and values shape how we work, collaborate, and create impact. If the below resonate, we’d love to have you with us.
