Maybern is founded by top engineering experts with deep knowledge of the fund management space. Private funds manage $15T in capital and are growing at 20% YoY, but with increasing regulatory scrutiny and investor demands for transparency, the need for more modern, fully agentic solutions to help private fund CFOs is crucial. This is where Maybern comes in. We are equipping fund managers with a fully agentic operating system for private fund management, enabling private investment managers to focus on what they do best: driving returns for their investors. We are backed by leading venture capital firms and a large number of strategic investors. Maybern is an NYC based company with a strong in-office culture to drive collaboration, and we are looking to make strong additions to our team. ## WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to help drive the evolution of our platform. The Platform Team provides core components for the rest of the Maybern engineering team to build on top of, including foundational data modeling, integration testing, and release tooling. We aim to create simple, reliable interfaces for complex systems to enable our engineers to move quickly yet safely, so our product teams can focus on delivering value for our customers. The right candidate's north star is developer productivity: you design, build, and rigorously test solutions so that product teams can stay focused on customer features while the complexities of scalability, performance, and fault‑tolerance are handled transparently by the platform. ## WHAT YOU'LL DO To thrive in this role, you must be an entrepreneurial engineer who enjoys solving complex problems - Build: Architect, scope, and build core parts of our system from the ground up - Lead: Identify and drive new initiatives while mentoring junior engineers - Partner: Work closely with other engineers to design elegant, flexible solutions that solve their problems while being forward-thinking about future use cases ## WHO YOU ARE - Developer Experience Mindset.

You collaborate well across teams, can distill and incorporate feedback, and communicate clearly and concisely - Leader. You're eager to shape our technical foundation and will level up team practices and processes. You can take broad guidance and determine the best path forward. You thrive in a fast-paced environment and are comfortable wearing multiple hats - Strategic. You see both the forest and the trees: think big picture, execute fine details. You can plan for the long term while navigating short-term tradeoffs - AI-Forward. You’re excited about applying AI where it creates real leverage for engineers. You can build and own AI-enabled developer tools, internal workflows, and automated engineering processes. THIS COULD BE A GREAT FIT IF YOU... - Are comfortable working across server-side languages and frameworks; we’re tech-agnostic in interviews, and use Python and Django in practice. - Have 4+ years of software engineering experience, including meaningful exposure to cloud infrastructure, platform systems, or developer-facing tools. - Have experience monitoring cloud applications, responding to incidents, and improving production reliability and observability. - Understand relational databases, transactions, distributed systems, and the tradeoffs involved in building reliable services. - Can take broad guidance, scope ambiguous work, and independently drive complex projects forward while collaborating closely across the organization. - Thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment with shifting priorities and broad ownership; early-stage startup experience is a plus. ## BENEFITS - We offer a competitive salary + equity package, comprehensive benefits, and a flexible family-friendly work environment.
