AidKit | Remote | Full-time | https://aidkit.org

AidKit is the engine that non-profits and governments trust to deliver direct cash assistance to those in need. We build & operate the social safety net for people who slip through the "official" ones. We replace convoluted workflows of glued together spreadsheets, bank portals and human tedium with one unified platform to allow organizations that do good to do so faster and more effectively.

Since starting amidst the pandemic, we've distributed over $50M to tens of thousands in hard to reach populations (the undocumented, unhoused, refugees, etc) and are on track to double this over the next year. We're currently running some of the largest guaranteed income programs in the United States.

We're looking for an experienced all-around engineer (frontend & backend) who cares about our mission to bring good software to doing good. You'll work (with me!) as part of our small tech team to make sure our systems stay healthy under massive surges of interest in programs that we run (we went from 0 to ~1000 requests per second in a matter of minutes recently). Our stack is mostly Typescript and Postgres (with some Python that we're deprecating).

We pay everyone in the company $120k and would pay you the same + equity. We're bootstrapped and profitable.

If you're interested, please reach out to me at ben@aidkit.org!

(We consider ourselves a social impact startup <-- trying to make sure people who search for this find this post :)
