What We're Building

Help us democratize access to financial markets.

Are you passionate about disrupting financial services with easy to use APIs? We are too!

We're looking for talented software developers with experience or excitement in building and working with APIs to join our team in Portland, Oregon.

Our Tech Stack

Primarily Go with some Ruby Microservices in Docker containers running on AWS.

We are language agnostic, if you can work out how to put it in a docker container and help us learn the language, it’s in.

Our Dev Culture

Our goal is to build the best API for financial markets and in future other financial services. As a company, we pride ourselves in having everyone on the team knowing our API. Our customers rely on us for our stability and long term thinking.

We move at a reasonable pace and keep things working. We fix bugs before writing new features, and we specify functionality before building in agile development cycles.
