About Fat Llama
What
if owning things was no longer important? What if expensive, niche
items could be available to you in seconds? And what if you could
generate an extra income from your own belongings? At Fat Llama, we're
already bringing about that future. We believe that one day, owning
those things we only occasionally need will be as ridiculous as buying a
house every time you want to go on holiday.
Our
users enjoy on-demand access to anything from high-end cameras to
drones to campervans. As a result, they're doing, creating and achieving
incredible things every day. Income from rentals is changing the lives
of many of our lenders, too - whether it's paying their rent or allowing
them to drop corporate jobs and focus on passion projects.
The herd's growing fast, too. Last year we went through
Y Combinator and recently announced a
$10M raise from amazing investors to superpower our growth and focus on American expansion.
Our Technology
Technology
is at the heart of everything we do at Fat Llama, allowing us to solve a
problem that has never been solved before. Our whole team gets a say in
the product & tech roadmap, and our engineering team takes pride in
writing, testing and deploying new features on a daily basis.
As
an engineer at Fat Llama, you’ll be responsible for crafting, building
and running the software which underpins our marketplace. We’re looking
for somebody that can deliver solid engineering whilst moving at the
same speed as our constantly growing business. You should also be
excited about helping shape the direction and culture of our engineering
team going forward.
Are you excited by the
prospect of learning new technologies? In a rapidly changing and growing
startup, you’ll be required to wear many different hats. Whether it be
designing scalable systems, building tools to help our Operations team
keep the business running, or slicing and dicing data for our analytics
dashboards, you should welcome the challenge. You should thrive in a
constantly changing environment and enjoy learning new things at a fast
pace.
Our team takes pride in owning our work
truly end-to-end. We’re looking for people who can plan, experiment,
build, test, deploy, measure and iterate before calling it done. As a
small team, we try and build on the shoulders of giants, which means
that you’ll often find us working with the latest and greatest
technologies.
Applicants with less experience may want to consider applying for our software engineer role.
