About Soraban

Today, Soraban's building software to help accountants automate their client data intake process. Our next step is to build the Copilot for accountants. We are looking for ambitious people to come build the best piece of software for accountants.

We’ve raised over 4.5m from PHX Ventures, Y Combinator, Village Global, Liquid 2, AZVC, and many more.

About the role
Skills: Torch/PyTorch, JavaScript, Python, React, Ruby on Rails

We're a post-revenue, seed stage B2B startup with ARR growing double digits every month.

We're a small engineering team of 7 ambitious engineers looking for a head of engineering to help us scale our product and manage our product team in-person. Our current tech stack is Ruby on Rails / React / Postgres, running on a combination of Heroku and AWS services.

Skills & experience we're looking for:

  • Production experience with Ruby on Rails.
  • At least 11 years of production full-time experience as a software engineer.
  • Managed or lead an engineering team.

Bonus if:

  • Production experience with Ruby on Rails.
  • You have shipped a product end-to-end (from frontend to backend/API).
  • You are a self-starter who doesn't need to be micromanaged.
  • You are persistent and determined. You are the type of person who will go through walls to get the job done.
  • You've directly worked with a founder before.

Important Note: Instead of a cover letter, please send over a link or anything that my team and I can review to figure out if we have a fit. We’re looking for someone with signs that they can go through walls. We want to hear all the challenges you solved with the engineering team.
