About The Position

Rivet is an AI-native accounting firm that has rapidly grown into a Top 500 firm in the US within three years. They offer a comprehensive service combining corporate and personal income tax, sales tax, R&D credits, and bookkeeping into a unified experience designed to simplify tax season for businesses and their operators. Their platform aims to be unobtrusive, guiding clients, automating tasks for preparers, and minimizing intervention when unnecessary. Success is measured by time saved and returns processed, not just usage metrics. By owning their technology stack, Rivet deeply integrates AI into their workflows, providing a competitive advantage over firms relying on third-party tools. The company supports over 1,000 innovative US companies, including notable names like Cursor, Cognition, and ModRetro, along with their executives, investors, and employees. The founding team brings significant experience: Nick Abouzeid, co-founder & CEO, previously led three Growth teams at Ramp, scaling ARR from $100M to $600M. Kyle Christenson, co-founder & Head of Tax, has a background as an IRS auditor and over a decade of experience running his own firm. Rivet is well-funded, experiencing rapid growth, and has raised over $7 million from investors such as XYZ Ventures, Susa Ventures, Haystack Ventures, and numerous executives from prominent tech companies.

Requirements

• 5+ years shipping full-stack web applications, with production experience in both Go and React
• Have owned features end to end on a small team, where there was nobody to hand the other half to
• Comfortable choosing where the complexity should live — in the schema, the service, or the UI — and defending the call
• Know how to prototype fast and then decide, honestly, what it takes to make it real
• Comfortable operating in a fast-changing, early-stage environment
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills

Nice To Haves

• Were the first or second engineer on a product that made it to real users
• Connect RPC, gRPC, or protobuf-first API design, and generated typed clients
• TanStack in production, or edge deployment on Cloudflare Workers
• Shipped LLM systems into production paths and evaluated them properly, not as prototypes
• Built tax-adjacent software — fund administration, payroll, accounting platforms, filing systems
• Started a company yourself, however small

Responsibilities

• Ship features end to end — Postgres schema, Go service, protobuf contract, React screen, and the alert that pages you when it breaks.
• Move where the quarter needs you. Client portal in the fall, preparer workspace before January, platform work when filing season quiets down. This role is for someone who finds that energizing rather than scattered.
• Take AI from prototype to product. Deciding what graduates into a workflow preparers depend on, and hardening it so it can be, is the job.
• Talk to preparers and clients directly, then go build the thing they actually needed.
• Leave the codebase better than you found it. We have five languages and six engineers. Some of that is deliberate; some of it isn't, and we want opinions about which is which.

Benefits

• Benefits and meaningful equity
• A fully remote team, plus twice-yearly company offsites
• A well-funded, fast-moving environment with minimal layers of management
• A world-class client base that values your time and pays for the premium experience
• The chance to build production-grade software your teammates use and love every day
