About Us
Repool is a fintech software company that is modernizing infrastructure for hedge funds. US hedge funds account for $3.5T of assets but rely upon antiquated services and technology from fractured service providers, and there's an enormous opportunity to challenge longstanding incumbents and gain significant market share.
Founded in 2021, Repool is a YC S21 alumnus with over $6.5M in funding from top firms like Canaan, Matrix, and Uncorrelated, as well as angel investors including founders from unicorns like Brex, Jeeves, Mercury, Flexport, Outschool, Pilot, and Forge.
The team currently has 9 employees, primarily in NYC and the Bay Area.
The Role
We're hiring for a product-oriented, full-stack engineering intern to join the team (currently 4 engineers).
You must be enrolled in a 4 year CS program and be a rising senior to apply for this role.
You'll own large portions of product and help to build out a dream team of engineers and culture. Our ideal candidate is thoughtful and product-drive; someone who wants to ship a lot of features, gain exposure to many areas of the business, and meaningfully impact the direction of the product.
This is a primarily in-person role and we expect the candidate to work out of our Bay Area (Oakland) office 3 days out of the week.

What You'll Do Here
- Ship exceptional, thoughtful features and code
- Collaborate with the engineering team on product features
- Great communication and collaboration skills
- A desire to be a part of and help build out great culture as the team grows
- Experience with one or more common web application frameworks (Phoenix, Rails, Django, etc.)
- Experience with at least one relational database system
- Prior internship experience
- Passions outside of work!
- Experience with React, GraphQL, and Elixir/Phoenix
- Previous startup experience
- Previous finance experience
- A passion for investing, creator economies, and/or finance
- Leaning in. Startups aren't where you go to make the absolute most money, have the best work-life balance, or the easiest role. That's not for everyone, but the worst situation is people who join startups wanting only the "upsides" and not the "downsides.". You should know that building a startup is hard, and while we aim to have work-life balance, this just isn't a 9-5 job, and it's also not a role where you can coast. Great companies that become unicorns universally have incredible early employees who leaned in and helped build the company. That said, we also believe in reasonable expectations.
- Culture. Between the two of us, we've been at companies with great culture, okay culture, and bad culture, and while there's no one way to have an amazing culture, there are many ways to have bad cultures. We want Repool to be a transformative, inspiring, and enjoyable place to work, and we're really interested in hiring for other people who feel similarly.
- Building great product and moving quickly. Our operating philosophy is to seek the truth, debate earnestly, and then - lastly, decide and go.
- Becoming more formidable. Whether it's in 8 years or 2 years, we know it's unlikely that Repool is the last stop of your life and professional journey. We care deeply about supporting you in using Repool to get to whatever's next.
