Through our suite of cloud-based diligence, portfolio monitoring, and reporting solutions, we help institutional investment professionals integrate, organize, and make use of all relevant data for unparalleled transparency on private companies and investments.
Our clients include many of the world’s largest and most sophisticated venture capital, private equity, and credit funds to the tune of over $500 billion of AUM managed via our solution suite. We are backed by The Carlyle Group and Nasdaq, Inc. and are fortunate to have seen rapid and nonstop growth since our founding in 2016.

The Opportunity
Bring your expertise to a rapidly growing team led by experienced technical founders with a market-leading technology product suite. We are searching for a Senior Full-Stack Engineer to play a leading role on our Engineering team as we continue to scale. We are seeking a colleague who is excited about programming and building day-to-day, while also collaborating to continue to refine Chronograph’s technical vision and enhance our development processes.
We are continuing to grow quickly in size and sophistication and have a need for developers who care about software design and have built products that other people love to use and work with, and have experience encouraging the adoption of best practices. As Senior Full-Stack Engineer, you will be responsible for helping design and implement systems and features across Chronograph’s suite of products. One day you might be optimizing the performance of an API endpoint or implementing a new frontend feature; another you could be contributing to an architecture outline or helping identify new talent.
Our engineers work with a diverse array of languages and technologies (including TypeScript, GraphQL, Node.js, React/Redux, PostgreSQL, Ruby/Rails, some Python and Go, etc.), making it possible to find many growth paths. We are also increasingly embracing machine learning, which presents interesting opportunities to collaborate on integrations.
At Chronograph, engineers work closely with our product and design leaders to create world-class user experiences. The Chronograph engineering team is centered around learning, knowledge sharing, and both personal and team development.

- Collaborate closely across the organization to build and refine processes to ensure efficient growth into the future
- Help continue to build a world-class Engineering team team, shaping both technical direction and team composition as we scale
- Help attract, interview, and onboard your future team members during this exciting time of growth
Requirements
You will be successful in this role if you have:
- Five (5) to eight (8) years of professional development experience
- A passion for maintainable, readable, stable, secure, and scalable code
- Proven experience architecting and developing SaaS applications; extra points for finance-oriented or enterprise solutions
- Advanced knowledge of ES6/7, Node.js, React/Redux, and other modern JS tools and paradigms, including TypeScript; experience with Ruby on Rails and/or similar backend frameworks desired but not required
- Solid experience with relational database utilization
