Argus
The next generation of employee compliance
Full-stack Senior Software Engineer
About the role
About Us
Argus is building the next generation of employee compliance software.
Today, 10M employees in finance, consulting, crypto etc. struggle to trade stocks and other assets because of employer compliance restrictions and cumbersome processes. We fix this for employees, unlocking their ~$5T in liquid assets. And our SaaS software automates compliance for firms, shrinking back office headcount and minimizing risk. We started Argus for ourselves (as two ex-Bain consultants), for our friends and families, and for all the employees who can't manage their financial wellbeing today.
We've just closed our seed round so are well-funded and growing quickly.
Our Values
Building: We prioritize building the company and the team, together; we embrace risks and long-shots.
Caring: We care deeply about each other, from celebrating the big wins and commiserating over losses to the casual conversations. Empathy defines our interactions.
Debating: We have a culture of rich debate about what is right for our company.
About You
An engineer and builder, who's been an independent contributor for 2+ years or even just started being a manager. You’re now ready to take on a career-defining opportunity at a YC-backed and well-funded startup. You love tackling diverse problems and building clean solutions that scale. You'll be among our first engineering hires so the sky's the limit: you grow as we grow.
What We're Looking For
- 2+ years of independent contributor/management experience
- Experience in Python (especially Flask) and JavaScript (especially React)
- SQL and database design skills
- Frontend experience (HTML, CSS)
- Track record of team leadership, formally or informally
- Ideally experience with one or more of the following: AWS, Docker or Kubernetes
Why you should join Argus
Argus lets employees who could have material nonpublic information, like bankers and consultants, trade compliantly with their employer restrictions. Today banks and consulting firms struggle over compliance restrictions and even pay fines when employees misuse their brokerages. The way Argus works is pretty simple: charge firms like Bain, partner with brokerages like Schwab, and allow employees to trade on their existing accounts.
