I'm Ryan, an EM and engineer here at YC. We have a small, 18-person software team with no PMs -- engineers own everything end-to-end.
We build the software behind YC's $6B in investments: tools that help partners evaluate thousands of startups per batch, AI-powered apps that founders use every day, and platforms like Work at a Startup that connect candidates with YC companies. Engineers get unlimited AI tokens -- both for development and to build AI-powered products. What wouldn't you build to help founders + YC with that much firepower?
What makes this different from other roles:
* You'd learn more about startups here than you could possibly imagine. Every batch brings hundreds of founders building things across every industry, and you're right in the middle of it.
* We attend Demo Day, founder dinners, and work directly with partners and many of the companies. (They make great products!)
* We pay well, offer carry in the fund (like equity), and provide generous relocation support if you're not in SF yet.
Two roles open:
* Product Engineer -- full-stack, own the product lifecycle. Rails/React stack. Build tools that power how YC invests in and supports startups. It's a wide range, and sometimes it feels like labs-like work, other times it feels like a supersuit to power founders and our Partners like Garry and Jared.
* Community Builder and Software Engineer -- hybrid role. Run YC's talent-facing programs (meetups, tech talks, career expos) AND build the software that makes them scale. You need to be a great engineer and LOVE to build and support communities.
We're also exploring a Technical Chief of Staff role to work with one of our GPs -- someone who can think analytically, drive operations, and scale what they do with software.

YASSI provides real-time access to vehicle title, lien, and registration data directly from U.S. state motor vehicle agencies. Unlike traditional bulk data providers, YASSI retrieves each vehicle record live at the time of request, ensuring the most accurate and current information available.
YASSI is the only provider offering an enterprise-grade solution purpose-built for real-time vehicle data at national scale. In addition, YASSI is uniquely positioned as the only platform that combines real-time vehicle record access with digital repossession title processing, enabling lenders to verify lien status and complete repo titling workflows within a single, integrated solution.
We’re rethinking how vehicle data, titling, and compliance infrastructure works— bringing real-time connectivity and transparency to an industry that’s long overdue for modernization. We are already profitable 6 years in. That is unique for a start-up.
Actively building out our engineering team in downtown Chicago and we are open to senior/staff level.

Mission: Build better culture & growth systems for companies that don’t have them. Then make them stick.

Company: We’re a SaaS company in the employee engagement space. Our customers are Heads of People, HRBPs, and founders who want to run better 360 reviews, engagement surveys, and feedback systems-but don’t have the time or expertise to do it properly. FeedbackPulse makes employee engagement simple with tools for creating meaningful surveys, gathering staff feedback, and building better workplace culture. Our platform offers engagement surveys, performance reviews, and 360° feedback solutions that help companies address high turnover rates and disengaged workforces.
You: HR/PeopleOps experience, using AI tools like Claude Cowork daily, clear writing skills, self-directed, and results-oriented.
Our culture: Direct communication, focused deep work, clear work-life boundaries, and sustainable growth as a bootstrapped company.
