Elsewhere | TypeScript Game Developer | San Francisco

Ever wanted to build indie video games at a startup? Let's talk. Elsewhere is a San Francisco-based company building a new kind of multiplayer social video game, inspired by indie roguelike deckbuilding games like Slay the Spire and CCGs like Magic: The Gathering. We're using generative AI in a creatively interesting way to build the first AI game that doesn't suck. We're backed by top Silicon Valley investors, and graduated from the first cohort of a16z's SPEEDRUN program, which is kind of like YC for games.

Ideally, you:

* Have worked as a software engineer before, ideally on a small team.

* Have built and shipped games before, either professionally or on your own time.

* Have experience with full-stack web development, using TypeScript, React, etc.

* Love games yourself, and have always wanted to work in the games industry.

SpruceID (YC W21) | REMOTE (US-Based Preferred) | Full-Time | spruceid.com

Spruce lets users control their data across the web. Instead of users logging into platforms, we believe platforms should request to access data vaults controlled by users.

The demand for trusted digital ID is accelerating as AI deepfakes begin to destroy most of the ways we use to verify identity today. How private or secure is it to hold your driver's license or passport up to a webcam to get a bank account? Was it ever private or secure? Stable diffusion can break so much of this already. Society will need trusted digital IDs and credentials. Our mission is to allow them to be controlled by individuals, with safeguards to prevent descents into surveillance states and checkpoint societies.

We are the main implementers of category-defining initiatives such as the digital ID program for the California DMV, and the verifiable digital credentials program in Utah. We are private sector participants in NIST's National Cyber Security of Excellence initiative for privacy-preserving digital ID.

We are hiring skilled engineers who care about making a real impact in improving public services, digital autonomy, and user privacy for the world. We work closely with public sector agencies, and have high regard for public servants. We have a strong engineering and customer-oriented culture, and are not simply a SaaS product or AI wrapper. Our roles are not for the faint of heart: you will be expected to work hard and learn a lot in this role.

Our engineers are ambitious to get outcomes for our customers and their constituents. On any given day, they may write great Rust/C#/TypeScript, deal with mainframe dumps, read policy documents, respond to technical RFIs/RFPs, manage on-prem environments, implement new NFC + Bluetooth protocols in Swift/Kotlin, create CI/CD processes that enforce W3C accessibility guidelines and i18n requirements, rewrite lost specs from disassembled binaries, figure out stablecoin payments, and design new protections for public key infrastructure. It is a team effort, and people with T-shirt shaped skills are able to collaborate and learn a ton from each other every day.

We are interested in candidates who want to be proud of the meaningful impact they make for society, even if it takes time to get right. This is not the right job for someone who wants to "join a cool new AI startup" that implodes or exits in under a year.

Odyssey | Full Stack Engineer | Hybrid | Full-time | NYC | $160k - $180k + Equity

Odyssey is building the leading financial technology platform for school choice. We help families access funding for tuition, tutors, curriculum, software, and enrichment programs—empowering them with greater educational opportunities.

We’re well-funded, backed by top investors including Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), and we are rapidly scaling.

We’re looking for a full-stack engineer to help build and scale the technology powering our platform. You’ll work across the stack-- architecting efficient backend systems, building intuitive front-end interfaces, and ensuring our platform scales efficiently.

This role is ideal for someone who wants to work on meaningful problems in education & fintech; influence the direction of a fast-growing, venture-backed startup; and collaborate with a passionate team.

Typescript, AWS, Postgres, Next.js, Tailwind, Terraform, Docker.

BoWatt | Senior Full-Stack Engineer (Go / React) | Remote (Germany) | Full-Time | €70–100k + Equity

BoWatt builds intelligent software for manufacturing complex hardware products — think machines, medical devices, or electronics.

We’re a profitable, bootstrapped startup headquartered in Munich, with team members across Germany and the UK.

We’re looking for a full-stack engineer to own and ship features across our React/TypeScript frontend and Go backend. If you’re interested, you’ll also have the opportunity to work on our AI features.

We’re a team of six, and more than half of us are former startup founders (deep tech, AI, psychedelics and gaming). We build closely with our customers and aim to strike the right balance between moving fast and building things properly.

Reach out directly: fabian@bowatt.com

Chestnut | Product Engineers (Backend / Full-Stack) | SF + Seattle (Hybrid) | https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/Chestnut

Chestnut builds the systems insurance carriers actually run their distribution business on. We replace spreadsheets, legacy vendor systems, and manual processes with real-time data, deterministic workflows, and AI-assisted tooling.

This is end-to-end product engineering.

You won’t just write APIs. You’ll design schemas, build backend logic, ship UI, deploy to production, and handle the sharp edges that show up with real customers. The problems are messy and state-heavy: payouts that must reconcile with finance, onboarding flows with regulatory constraints, dynamic hierarchies, retries, chargebacks, partial failures.

We care a lot about correctness. These systems move real money and cannot drift.

Stack: Go, TypeScript/React, Postgres, Temporal, Kubernetes, AWS

We use AI heavily in our workflow — for drafting, refactoring, test generation, and exploring solutions. We expect engineers to use it aggressively. We also expect you to understand what it’s doing, spot when it’s wrong, and maintain strong fundamentals. Taste matters.

You’ll likely thrive here if you: - Have 3–6 years building real product systems - Are strong in at least one typed language and comfortable picking up others - Enjoy owning features end-to-end - Think in terms of invariants, edge cases, and failure modes - Like shipping quickly but cleanly - Want to build systems that operate in production, not demos

We’re a small, high-agency team. You’ll have meaningful ownership and direct impact on customers.

Hybrid in SF and Seattle.

Lead Full-Stack Engineer Marker Learning | Remote (U.S. only) | Full-time | Engineering | 185-250k

I have dyslexia. I was one of the lucky ones. Diagnosed at eight, I got accommodations and support before things spiraled.

Most kids aren't so lucky. The path from initial concern to diagnosis can take years and cost families upward of $5,000. For many, it never comes at all. In one study, 50% of prisoners were found to be dyslexic, with 80% functionally illiterate. Behind every missed diagnosis is a kid who gets told they're lazy, when the reality is no one ever gave them the right test.

Marker Learning is building an AI-enhanced assessment platform that makes identifying learning differences faster, cheaper, and more equitable, especially for multilingual students who are routinely misidentified or overlooked. Imagine if every kid could be screened for learning differences as easily as they're screened for vision. That's what we're building.

This isn't a chatbot or a homework helper. We're a Series B company backed by Reach Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, and Primary, running a multi-million-dollar longitudinal study spanning K–12 and developing the psychometric engine behind it. We need engineers who are excited by that.

We're hiring a hands-on full-stack engineer (React, Node.js, TypeScript) to help build and scale the platform: adaptive testing infrastructure, AI-powered scoring scoring and data pipelines, and the systems that maintain clinical rigor at scale. High autonomy, lightweight process, fast-paced. 8–10+ years, ideally with 0-to-1 or early-stage experience. You'll work directly with psychometrics, product, and data science, and the engineering decisions you make now will define the platform for years.

Reach out directly with your resume and why you want this position to lucie@markerlearning.com. Make the subject "Lead Engineer Application (I am not a bot)".
