Founding Engineer - Full stack

Matterfact
Hayward, CA Full Time
POSTED ON 3/10/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 6/6/2025

We are an ambitious early-stage startup building the world's best financial intelligence platform.

Our vision is to build a full fledged AI-powered equity research desk, of the likes of Goldman

Sachs. The first milestone towards that eventual goal is to build a set of AI tools that shrink the

investment research process from weeks to hours. Financial Analysis is one of the top tier

knowledge work - and we believe that AI is going to change it as much as spreadsheets

changed ledgers.

We are three founders that worked at Google Search & Gemini, Apple, and high growth startups

in the Bay Area. We studied at Harvard, Stanford, UNC Chapel Hill and IIT Bombay. And we have been Financial Analysts both in investment banks and hedge funds. Know more about us - Ashutosh Agarwal , Vishal Verma and Daniel Chen .
