The posting

COMPANY OVERVIEW

Most companies don't end in acquisition — they end in closure. Yet shutdown has never been given the same rigor, clarity, or professionalism as the moments that came before it. Nearly 4 million companies shut down every year, creating a massive, overlooked market. SimpleClosure is building the infrastructure to change that.

Having raised over $20M from leading VCs and trusted by more than 7,000 companies to date, we streamline the entire business dissolution process — from legal and tax to operational and administrative — as one coordinated effort instead of a patchwork of disconnected steps. We take it a step further by connecting founders with buyers for their remaining assets, so they can realize value that would otherwise be lost.

Joining SimpleClosure means helping define an entirely new category, solving complex, high-impact problems, and building the products and processes that support founders through one of the most important moments in a company's journey.

JOB OVERVIEW

SimpleClosure is seeking an experienced Backend/Infrastructure Engineer to join AssetHub, SimpleClosure's marketplace for the assets left behind when a company shuts down, including codebases, workspaces, proprietary data, and talent. Our buyers include some of the top foundation model labs, RL environment providers, and AI agent builders in the world, who rely on AssetHub as a differentiated source of proprietary data and talent they can't get anywhere else. In this role, you’ll take the lead in building novel systems from the ground up that support digital asset acquisition, preparation and delivery. You’ll work closely with leadership, product, and design to ensure we deliver high-quality, scalable, and maintainable solutions. This position is hybrid in NYC and reports directly to the CTO.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

- Lead the technical design, development, and delivery of complex features from concept to deployment.

- Mentor and guide other engineers, promoting strong engineering practices and continuous learning.

- Architect scalable, maintainable systems across the stack, ensuring alignment with business goals.

- Collaborate cross-functionally to translate product requirements into technical solutions.

- Conduct and lead code reviews to maintain quality, performance, and security standards.

- Build and configure the protective systems, processes, software, and networks to secure customer and internal data.

- Introduce modern tools, frameworks, and processes to improve development speed and maintainability.

- Partner with leadership to set technical direction, improve team workflows, and prioritize effectively in a fast-paced startup environment.

DESIRED SKILLS & QUALIFICATIONS

- Experience: 5+ years of professional software development experience, with at least 2+ years in a senior or leadership capacity.

- Backend/Infrastructure: Full proficiency in modern technologies (ex: Python, Go, Docker, K8S, Service Meshes, Terraform).

- Architecture Skills: Demonstrated ability to design and implement scalable systems and APIs.

- Leadership: Proven ability to mentor and coach engineering teams in collaborative, early-stage environments.

- Quality-Driven: Strong focus on testing, maintainability, performance optimization, and security.

- Startup Mindset: Thrives in dynamic, evolving environments with shifting priorities and tight timelines.

WHAT WE OFFER

- Base Salary: $180,000 - $220,000, depending on experience level

- Competitive equity package

- Comprehensive health benefits, including medical, dental, and vision

- Life insurance

- Unlimited paid time off

- Flexible hybrid work environment in New York City, Midtown (2 days per week in office)

- Two company-wide offsites each year

- 401(k) with Traditional and Roth options, with immediate eligibility

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
