##  **The Problems You’ll Solve**

At Carta, our employees set out on a mission to unlock the power of equity
ownership for more people in more places. We believe that the problems we
solve today unlock the opportunities of tomorrow. We know a lot about the VC
space in the United States – it’ll be your job as Director of Engineering to
help us learn and launch new products in the European and UK spaces.

**On VC, we are migrating an entire service industry - Fund Administration -
into software. Venture Capitalists and Fund Managers use Fund Administrators
to help operate their investment funds. The existing, service-based solutions
are expensive, inefficient, and prone to human error – think humans wrangling
spreadsheets. With the introduction of Carta’s[ event-based accounting
platform](https://carta.com/blog/q3-2020-investor-products-update/), Carta is
(and you are) positioned to unseat the incumbents, and revolutionize this
industry through software.**

## **The Team You’ll Work With**

You’ll be leading Carta’s engineering efforts in expanding our growing Venture
Capital business into the European market.

You’ll be working with a talented group of business leaders, product managers,
designers, and engineers. These teams have already helped build Carta’s
Venture Capital business in the United States, and we’re looking for you to
help replicate our success in new markets.

Within your business unit, Venture Capital (VC), you’ll meet teammates of all
experience levels and backgrounds, passionate about creating software that
unlocks more owners. You’ll find teammates with deep levels of pride in what
they do, and a customer-obsessiveness that is furthered by regular feedback
cycles. Importantly, you’ll find a higher than “normal” level of transparency,
trust and autonomy - something Cartans (Carta employees) have celebrated since
the earliest days of the startup.

## **About You**

We’re looking for someone rare in this role, and we’re willing to take our
time to find this person. Ideally, you’re a human, but we’ll avoid making any
qualifications on your species. Instead, we’ll talk about what inspires us
about you:

  * You want to be very involved with roles beyond engineering: product, design, business, and more. You want to understand customer needs and help decide what we build, and what we do not build.
  * You can operate independently while considering the broader impact of what you’re building.
  * You care deeply about software and the leverage that software brings. You can use your past experience building software to show your team the way in which they can improve our customer’s leverage.
  * You are energized by, and capable of, super-charging the careers of those that report to you. You’ve been able to help mentor more junior engineers, and support more senior engineers in reaching their potential. You’ve directly managed teams for at least 3 years.
  * You are willing and capable of getting in the trenches alongside your fellow engineers and reports. You lead by example, and take pride in your work.
  * You are exceptionally technical. You can describe complex ideas simply. You are just as capable working toward a long-term road map as you are jumping into a fire to solve a customer’s problem 5 minutes from now.
  * You are as hungry to learn about our customers and business as you are about the latest stack or Docker release.

We are an equal opportunity employer and are committed to providing a positive
interview experience for every candidate. If accommodations due to a
disability or medical condition are needed, please connect with the recruiter
via email. As a company, we value fairness, helpfulness, transparency,
leadership and build our teams around these values. Check out our [careers
