Carta is the connected platform and AI-native ecosystem for private capital, serving 55,000 companies and 1.8M+ equity holders across 160+ countries. The KYC (Know Your Customer) team builds the compliance infrastructure powering every transaction in private markets—from Limited Partner onboarding to tender offers to transaction-level screening for Private Equity. The team screens over 1.5 million entities annually, making it one of the highest-volume compliance operations in the space.
You will join a small, senior engineering team re-architecting a fragmented set of products into a unified KYC platform. This is a pivotal moment combining startup-style execution with the rigor required to ship to production at scale. Your judgment will directly shape the outcome.
In this role, you will lead technically complex projects and serve as a multiplier for your team:
• Drive Implementation: Lead execution of complex technical projects from concept to production while maintaining high standards for performance and reliability.
• Simplify Systems: Dig deep into the architecture to identify opportunities to simplify code and infrastructure, prioritizing changes with measurable business impact.
• Leverage Modern Tooling: Use AI-assisted engineering tools to accelerate your workflow, improve code quality, and spend more time solving high-level logic and unconventional problems.
• Foster Growth: Act as a mentor and coach, raising the technical bar for peers through diligent PR reviews and architectural guidance.
• Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Partner with product and design to ensure building the right solution for users, not just following specifications.
REQUIREMENTS:
• 8+ years of professional software engineering experience
• Experience with (or desire to learn) core technologies: Python, Django, React, Postgres, and Kafka; also utilize Java, gRPC, and AWS
• Ability to break down complex user stories into actionable tasks and execute with minimal guidance
• Strategic mindset: understand the "why" behind code and articulate technical trade-offs to stakeholders
