Renalta is the direct gateway to top-rate yields and credit products that banks have gated for
decades. We were born out of frustration with fragmented, inefficient, and speculative banking
products. Our mission is to put more money back into the hands of the people.
Role
Our ideal candidate has a strong sense of product driven development, deep familiarity across
backend and frontend, and enjoys driving projects from inception to scaling them in
production. Our tech stack currently revolves around Typescript (NodeJS backend), Svelte, and
Postgres.
This is a high-ownership role in a fast-paced environment, ideal for engineers who thrive on
autonomy and want to help shape the technical foundation of a new age financial system.
Preferably, you have experience both in early stage startups (seed) and later stage (Series
B/C).
Qualifications
Essentials:
The autonomy and self-drive to own projects and subsystems end-to-end, at time with
ambiguous specs.
The ability to implement pixel perfect frontends from high resolution designs, and the
product-oriented intuition to extend and improvise on existing designs when needed.
Proven proficiency in Svelte or another modern frontend framework (SolidJS, Vue, React,
etc.) and a willingness to learn Svelte.
Comfortable with iterative development, prototyping, and adapting quickly to feedback in a
fast-paced environment.
Strong expertise in server-side Typescript development (e.g. node.js, deno).
Experience designing and implement intuitive, extensible, and scalable REST APIs.
Experience working with Postgres or other SQL databases.
Familiarity with configuring analytics, feature flags, and/or A/B testing.
An openness to taking bets on new technologies, tools, and other avenues for multiplying our
efforts.
Bonus, familiarity with:
Mobile development, either native or using cross-platform frameworks.
Web development best practices, e.g. when to use SSG/SSR/SPAs, bundle optimization,
deployment strategies, and SEO tuning.
Metrics, logging, and tracing systems, such as Grafana and related.
Event-driven architecture and queues, e.g. NATS Jetstream, RabbitMQ, Kafka.
Redis, Valkey, or other in-memory KV databases.
CI/CD pipelines, IaC, GitOps, and other DevOps tools and flows.
Knowledge of the workings of traditional financial systems and payment rails.
Contributions to open-source projects.
