Full Job Description
Where You'll Create Impact
  • Build!
  • Embed on named customer projects and own them end to end: discovery, design, build, deploy and verify
  • Build migration and integration pipelines on Temporal that are idempotent, resumable, and auditable
  • Model and load customer accounting data into Postgres correctly, including reconciling against their existing system
  • Build internal tooling so recurring one-offs stop being one-offs
  • Feed patterns back into the core product, and productize or hand off anything that becomes permanent
  • Compress the path from "customer requested" to "shipped"


What Sets You Up for Success
  • Hardcore work ethic and high agency
  • 5+ years shipping production full stack software, end to end and unsupervised
  • Django and DRF, plus Postgres beyond ORM defaults. You read query plans and you have run migrations against live data with customers on it
  • Next.js and React with TypeScript
  • Durable workflow experience. Temporal preferred but Celery is fine
  • Direct customer exposure on past experiences. You have sat with a customer, scoped the problem with them, and shipped against it
  • Experience with third party APIs, webhooks, rate limits, reconciling two systems that disagree
Nice to Have
  • Accounting, ERP, or fintech domain knowledge: double-entry, chart of accounts, close, AP/AR, revenue recognition
  • Prior forward deployed, applied, or special projects experience
  • Judgment about when to ship a script versus build a system


Why You'll Thrive Here
  • Significant equity ownership in one of the top AI companies in the world
  • You're joining early and will grow with DualEntry
  • Your feedback shapes the product directly
  • High-speed, high-trust environment with high expectations


Meet the Team
  • Ignacio shaped the baseline of our integration framework from scratch in a single weekend, then spent most weekends - while coordinating the team - shipping what was never on the roadmap: webhooks, a search engine for millions of transactions, and Puma itself
  • Marcin took a non-existent tax structure and built it end to end, setting the north star for how the team keeps improving it on top of it; modular and robust, always setting the bar for the rest
  • Puhiza grew her team from one to full capacity, while owning our integration framework. The queen of I/O on our platform
  • Danylo took ownership of our bank connection engine end to end and rebuilt it from scratch over a weekend


Compensation & Benefits
  • Equity: $60,000 - $80,000
  • Base salary: $160,000 - $270,000
  • Medical, dental & vision insurance
  • One Medical membership
  • Mental health support (Talkspace)
  • Fertility & family-building support (Kindbody)
  • Virtual healthcare (Teladoc Health)
  • 401(k) benefits
  • Commuter benefits
  • Learning & development budget for courses, certifications & language learning
  • Unlimited AI tokens
  • AI skills development & enablement
  • Visa & permanent residence sponsorship
  • Relocation support for employees moving to New York
  • Flexible PTO (27 days, including public holidays)
  • Collaborative, in-office culture with no bureaucracy
  • Snacks, drinks, team events & more!

"Join us to fix the boring, think the hard, and build the impossible, so we become the most robust engineering platform for accounting the world has ever seen."
