Column (https://column.com/) | San Francisco, CA (ONSITE) | Full Time | Software Eng (Infrastructure), Software Eng (Backend), Software Eng (Product) Column is building the infrastructure that powers the US dollar globally. We're a software first company, but also own a nationally chartered bank that we've built from the ground up. We're currently processing trillions of dollars annually, supporting some of the largest and most sophisticated companies out there like Wise, Bilt, Brex, Ramp, Mercury and dozens of others.
Previous to this I started Plaid (plaid.com), and at Column I'm focused on keeping an extremely lean and experienced team. We're currently 10 experienced engineers that all report to me. We are looking for an ambitious infrastructure, product, and backend engineer (one of each) that wants to build incredible software from first principles.
Profitable and 100% owned by employees and founders.

Appreciate it - its a fun, but hard problem! Yeah we're pretty hardcore on in-person in SF, which I isn't optimal for most people. As we get larger we may get more flex :)
CEO of Column here! Have hired a couple amazing people off of HN recently, feel free ping me 1:1 at william [at] column dot com or ping in the comments.
Founder of a developer bank, Column N.A. here. If people are interested in starting to build on FedNow hit us up. column.com/fednow and my email is william at column dot com .
I'm glad you noticed the account numbers as pointers concept - we think its pretty cool. I think there's some rad use cases that people will come up with!
Nope! We're a bank not an issuing processor (its pretty confusing...), we don't wrap any vendors or 3rd parties. However, they're an excellent issuing processor so a bunch of our customers use them and us together.
We plan on rolling out some corresponding banking services this year to help people with multi-currency accounts and international wires - but it would still be under our US charter. No short term plans to go international - there's a lot of ground we need to cover here. We tend to like to go very deep in an area instead of getting to spread thin.
We let developers bring their own KYC providers. There are so many great solutions out there I don't think the world needs another one :)
In general our approach is to focus on building things that 'only a bank can do' and if there are great existing solutions (ie: fraud, kyc, issuing processors) we let developers bring those solutions. We play nicely with all of them.
