Engineering at Alloy APIs

Engineering team and processes

We're a small team but we've taken a lot of care to build good engineering practices from the day we founded the company. We work fast but make sure to review each other's code consistently, discuss and enforce best practices, and spend time discussing the right way to build features rather than the fastest way.

We want people who want to help us evolve these practices as we grow, maintaining a core sense of pride in code quality and consistency while bringing new ideas to the table.

Technical Challenges

We help fintech businesses decide if people are real or fake based on external data sources like the credit bureaus, government records, phone records, etc.

This is a hard problem made even harder by the fact that we let our customers choose which of our 100+ data integrations they want to use AND how they want to use them. We must maintain integrations with all these data sources, build an engine to customize which are used and how for each customer, and build this in such a way that our customers don't screw up and configure our product in a way that will break or produce bad results.

Sound hard? It is! But it's also a fun problem to solve and the fact that we've solved for so much of this already is why we're growing as fast as we are.

We're flexible about work from home/work remote days. We like people to plan to spend most of their time in the office, but also believe in the flexibility to work from home/remote when its right for you.
