Job Description

At Trunk, our mission is to help teams create high-quality software quickly.
Merge conflicts, poor code quality or consistency, flaky tests, and dozens of
other distractions quickly drain the productivity and morale of those teams.
Engineering teams that can stay focused on designing, implementing, and
delivering software will build magical, high-quality projects - and they will
be happier doing it. We're building the tools that empower teams to land code
faster and develop happier.

We are building _the_ foundation for a modern software engineering team. Our
founders started this journey in 2021 and have designed, delivered, and scaled
software at some of the world's largest and fastest-growing tech companies -
Uber, Google, YouTube, and Microsoft. We're building a game-changing company,
and we hope you are excited to be a part of that audacious goal.

Software has eaten the world; almost every company produces software in some
form or fashion, so our addressable market is virtually every company on
earth. We're going after every engineering team on the planet - we're starting
with smaller teams, but there are literally hundreds of thousands of companies
out there for us to empower and maybe only a handful (Google, Facebook,
Amazon), that are outside our scope. We are building the DevEx platform to
empower the world.

In 2022, we raised a $25M Series A led by Initialized Capital (Garry Tan) and
a16z (Peter Levine), with investments from Haystack Ventures, Garage VC, Tom
Preston Warner (Founder/CEO of GitHub), Geoff Schmidt (Founder/CEO Apollo
GraphQL), Nicolas Dessaigne (Founder/CEO Algolia), and Oleg Rognysky
(Founder/CEO Peopl.ai).
