Aleph is redefining the world of Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A). We operate in a well-defined software category with a multi-billion TAM, yet a lack of a clear winner. We’re here to change that, and our early results speak for themselves.
We’re backed by top VCs (Bain Capital Ventures, Khosla Ventures, YC, Picus Capital), and work with customers like Eight Sleep, Webflow, Turo, Notion, Zapier and others.
Our tech stack: TypeScript, React, Python, Mongo, GCP

Research Engineer, Applied AI role - https://www.getaleph.com/careers?ashby_jid=b9212ac4-66bd-4fe...
Core team roles - https://www.notion.so/Core-16101e835fb08047b157ee8752e3650c
Senior Engineer Platform - https://www.getaleph.com/careers?ashby_jid=0f6dba71-a7f7-47d...
We make an open-source web framework, an online code editor, a GUI builder, and a PaaS hosting platform. Together, you can build and host a full-stack web application - and all you need is a little Python. (Yes, even the client-side code - we compile Python to JS and provide a GUI framework!)
We’re looking for an experienced all-rounder to work on the core Anvil platform, with a focus on the back-end. Our stack is mostly Clojure, Javascript, Python, Postgres, and container tools – but we're looking for someone who isn't afraid to jump into something you haven't used before.
You’ll be working with other seriously good all-rounders, including the founders (relevant PhDs, kernel contributors, builders of backyard dancing fountains) and senior colleagues (eg: Stu went from teaching Python in maths class to reverse-engineering our drag'n'drop editor in months), as well as our other developers and developer advocates. We're bootstrapped and profitable, with a small, smart, friendly and diverse team.
Building dev tools is great! We're solving problems we've experienced ourselves, our customers are developers just like us, and platforms have the most fun engineering problems.
For full job descriptions, and to hear what it's like working here, go to https://anvil.works/jobs.
We work hybrid (in the office Tue-Thu, wherever you like Mon/Fri). If you have questions, I'm a founder and my email's in my profile.
We license data to leading Fortune 500 restaurants. Data is the new oil, it serves as a vital input into the ML and data analytics pipelines that direct company strategies. Companies with a firm understanding of their internal data necessarily want to expand their understanding of their market with external datasets, that's where Spice Data comes in.
We're a small and nimble engineering team with lots of back end work that we could use some help with. We cover both sourcing (web crawling), cleaning, and formatting of large (150M+ data points a month) datasets. We'd love to talk with you if you have experience with either building/maintaining data pipelines or working on web crawling/scraping. Familiarity with unix like systems is essential as a lot of our tooling is terminal based.
Tech stack: Python, Linux, PostgreSQL, Dagster

Help us keep water clean. Literally. Join this Techstars backed startup. Nyad is on a mission to modernise how the world manages industrial wastewater. Across thousands of factories and treatment plants, operators are manually inspecting microbes under microscopes making critical decisions for billions of bacteria that clean our water. When things go wrong, they really go wrong: bugs die, pollution spikes, and companies spend big on emergency chemicals. We’re building software tools that empower operators with real-time insights combining image-based analysis, process recommendations, and AI-driven models of microbial health. It’s biology meets machine learning, in one of the least digitised but most essential sectors on Earth.
