Contract Simply (https://contractsimply.com) is looking for full-stack engineers in Austin (junior and senior).

ABOUT US

Contract Simply is building the first A.I., machine learning platform for the $900B US construction lending market. We help banks manage their large and complex construction loan portfolio using intelligent automation and integrated payments. Unlike a typical loan, a construction loan isn’t a single payment. Instead, it’s broken up into monthly payments called draws. That monthly draw process is complicated, with many stakeholders and hundreds or thousands of documents. Currently, all of this is managed with excel spreadsheets, PDFs, emails, and paper checks.

Our software helps lenders, developers, and other stakeholders produce and process this documentation automatically, leading to fewer errors, faster payments, and more profitable loans.

We’re currently small (10 employees), YC-backed, and are already working with several of the largest lenders in the industry. You’d be working directly with the founders in a company that values being purposeful, efficient, authentic, transparent, curious, and agile.

STACK

Experience in one/all of the following is appreciated, but we believe tool-specific knowledge is considerably less important than the fundamentals:

Elixir, Phoenix, GraphQL, React, Apollo, Python, sklearn, Kubernetes, Docker, and more!

Re:Ask HN: Why did your startup fail and what did you learn? on Monday September 17, 2018 @10:51PM (#18012093)
You generally don't get investment money day 1. If you are able to pull that, it's because you've had success being a founder before (or have rich friends/family). But as a first-time founder? I think you'd be wasting your time without having something real to show. Generally, that's an MVP with some degree of traction.

To get to that point, you have to do a lot of the things bigger companies have to do. Those things just tend to be less complex and you have fewer people to do them. Accounting, sales, engineering, marketing, etc., etc. all exist, to some degree, in a two-person company. At first, you learn to do them yourself. You'll probably suck at them. It's okay. They all have some degree of a feedback loop. If you're open, you'll figure it out. Eventually, with success, you'll hire other people to do them.

From there, you can get access to a great network by doing an incubator as someone else mentioned, or by just getting out there and talking to users (do this day 1). But you're worried about years 2-4 when you haven't even started year 1 yet.

If you want to discuss in more detail, I'm a founder with a product in banking that's been moderately successful. Email's in my profile. Feel free to reach out.

Contract Simply (https://contractsimply.com) helps banks expedite their construction loan payments. Unlike a typical loan which is one check one time, a construction loan has several monthly disbursements over the course of the project. This process is currently managed with excel, PDFs, and emails. We have a web-based platform that makes this process much easier, faster, and less error-prone. It’s more exciting than it sounds, I promise.

We value mastery, transparency, and, most of all, getting things done.

We offer competitive pay and benefits, plus equity. Despite being a startup, we do value work/life balance. We’re still small (4 full-time developers, 6 full-time employees total), so there’s a lot of opportunity to set the tone and direction of the company. We’re also YC-backed (S17).

TECH WE USE

Elixir, Python, React/Redux, AWS, Kubernetes, Postgres, Redis, circleci

REQUIREMENTS

* 4+ years experience in full-stack web development

* experience with Elixir and/or React — we don’t mind teaching you one of the two

* solid understanding of git

* experience with Postgres (or another RDBMS)

* can build quickly without creating a horrible mess

NICE TO HAVE

* experience with both Elixir and React

* experience with GraphQL APIs

* experience with machine learning

* experience with Kubernetes
