       Laylo (YC S20) Is Hiring a Full Stack Engineer to Grow "Salesforce"
       for Creators
        
       Laylo is on a mission to empower hundreds of thousands of creators
       with the marketing tools to manage and grow their businesses.
       Today, a creator has to focus on everything from content creation
       to fan engagement to scaling their business lines. Our products and
       tools allow creators to focus on the content creation while we
       handle the rest.  We're building a next-generation marketing
       platform complete with drop campaigns, cross-platform messaging,
       landing pages, and link tracking -giving creators the power to own
       and activate their fanbase.  Laylo now powers over three millions
       drops per month across music, podcasting, sports, fashion, gaming,
       among other categories. Notable customers include Sam Smith, Dixie
       D'Amelio, Kodak Black, Miles Teller, The Black Keys, and the
       Friends With Benefits DAO.  We've also established strategic
       partnerships with companies including Acast (podcast distribution),
       Fevo (sports and entertainment ticketing), Sound.xyz (music NFTs),
       Hoo.be (link-in-bio), CD Baby (music distribution), and Voice.com
       (NFT art collectibles). In the last year, we've rolled out
       integrations with Instagram, Spotify and some of the largest Web3
       Wallet providers.  As a product engineer, writing code and building
       beautiful user experiences is just one part of your job. You'll
       also talk to users, get involved with design, and develop your own
       opinion on what needs to exist in the world. Then you'll move with
       urgency to make it happen.  What will you do?  You'll work with a
       small engineering team to build mission-critical tools for
       creators.  As one of our first engineers, you'll build entirely new
       products from scratch and make important architectural decisions.
       You'll be responsible for planning, organizing, and executing
       entire projects end to end, from idea to launch. To do so, you'll
       have to work closely with design, operations, and (of course)
       creators.  You'll help build the foundation for Laylo engineering
       standards, tooling, and processes.  Creators are the most visual
       people on the planet -- you'll build a user experience that is both
       visually stunning and easy-to-use.  As we grow, we'll build up an
       engineering team around you.  We're looking for someone who:  Cares
       about creators and wants to build something meaningful. The tools
       we create will empower the next generation of entrepreneurs, and we
       take that responsibility seriously. Enjoys all aspects of building
       a product from scratch. You love talking to customers just as much
       as making technical decisions.  Understands the importance of both
       speed and quality, and the trade-offs of choosing one over the
       other.  Has 3+ years experience with frontend development,
       preferably with hands-on experience with React, Typescript, and
       Apollo Familiarity with mobile responsive design and component
       architecture are a plus  Wants to join a tight-knit team -- we work
       on solutions as a whole engineering team. If you love working on
       the end-to-end product experience, you'll love working here.  About
       Us:  Our founders met while building competing consumer startups.
       We've launched multiple products across consumer and SaaS and
       talked to thousands of fans and creators in the process. In 2020,
       we realized one of the biggest pain points creators have is
       reaching and managing their fanbase directly.  We went through Y
       Combinator in summer 2020 while building that new product and after
       seeing really strong early traction, raised our seed round in mid
       2021.  Right now we're a small team that's based in Los Angeles but
       working from home. We're hiring remotely in North America.  We have
       a strong written documentation culture, leveraging Notion to share
       ideas and record processes and learnings. We try to do as much as
       possible asynchronously to move quickly and efficiently.
