### About us
[Walrus](https://walrusfi.com/) is the leader in B2B payment verification,
working with some of the biggest names in VC, PE, and more.
B2B payments are a $1T+ industry and, as the industry pushes further into
digitization and faster settlement, fraud is becoming a massive problem — to
the tune of $43B in annual losses.
Walrus’s DoubleCheck is quickly becoming the definitive way to collect and
confirm payment details, using advanced authentication based on proprietary
tech and AI.
Walrus is led by PhD computer scientists and security researchers from
Harvard, MIT, and Stanford. We’re backed by one of the world's leading fintech
VC funds, as well as founders and executives of Twitter, Google Maps,
Databricks, and Kayak.
### **The role**
You will be part of the core team at Walrus, working on our [flagship
product](https://walrusfi.com/doublecheck). You will design, build, and own
exciting new modules; examples include payments, reputation, and new kinds of
authentication.
We are a new company, so you and the other few people who join us in the early
days will create standards and culture that will endure for years to come. Of
course you’ll get to design and innovate solutions to hard problems, and write
a lot of code. But beyond that, as all entrepreneurial software teams do,
you’ll be able to design ways of approaching software development.
We are looking for people who are thoughtful, not only about software
problems, but about how teams work together to solve them, and how people
collaborate to build an energizing and supportive workplace.
### About you
You are someone who cares a lot about designing software in a thoughtful way
that takes into account bug prevention, testability, and maintainability. You
are comfortable with the idea that product design should be data-driven, using
evidence rather than opinion.
You have:
* At least 2 years of experience designing, building, and deploying sophisticated web applications.
* Experience with tools for testing. You know that the best software developers demonstrate that their code works, rather than dumping it on a QA department.
* Curiosity, and an interest in teaching and learning from your colleagues.
* Strong written communication skills.
### Optionally
* You have experience with modern UI frameworks, web standards, and web development best practices.
* You have a detailed understanding of the design of data models for use in relational databases.
* You have used cloud infrastructure to deploy reliable and scalable web applications.
* You have built authentication flows and/or implemented secure APIs.
* You have built or used tools for data analysis, performance profiling, and debugging.
We strongly encourage you to apply even if you don't meet all the criteria
listed; the description is meant to be indicative, not a precise description
of a pigeonhole.
### What it’s like to work with us
We’re a tight-knit, early-stage team that’s focused on building a product that
our customers love. We have a strong company culture based on collaboration,
ownership, and mentoring. We meet sparingly and efficiently. We understand our
innate biases and celebrate diversity. We have a low-ego, no drama workplace,
where we provide the tools for everyone to do their best work. You will work
closely with the leadership team, and have room for extensive growth within
the company.
