Noise exists because culture should be shaped by the people who care about it. We're building a platform where curators and communities surface and value the trends becoming relevant around the world.

We're a team of 10 based in SoHo, New York. Open to remote. We look for people with great taste who can ship code, design or convey user needs into delightful products.

RESPONSIBILITIES

- Build backend systems for consumer features: feeds, ranking, notifications, realtime, and social surfaces

- Make the codebase a place where both humans and agents ship with high confidence

- Own services, data flows, and APIs across the core product

- Build the infrastructure where correctness and speed both matter: settlement, pricing, and realtime systems with real money on the line

- Own and improve the development harness: CI, testing, and observability



QUALIFICATIONS

- Doesn’t write code by hand, defaults to Claude Code, Codex, or your harness of choice

- Sharp instincts for the tradeoff between latency and correctness in financial systems

- Proficiency in TypeScript, relational databases, realtime transports, and event-driven data flows across a financial product

- Comfortable in a strict monorepo with typed service boundaries and strong conventions

- No platform org to hand things off to. You fix the pipeline, improve the container, add the trace

- Strong communication skills: async updates, incident postmortems, and knowing when to ask for help



BONUS

- Familiarity with Effect-TS

- Side projects, open source contributions, or startup experience

Minimum full-time salary of $160,000-$210,000. Disclosure in accordance with New York City's Pay Transparency Law. Full Time employees at Noise Labs are also eligible for other compensation elements, including equity and benefits, dependent on the position type.
