About the role

  • We invite people of all backgrounds (https://www.allium.so/about).
  • [https://app.ashbyhq.com/api/images/user-content/2f62de56-0dd0-4792-90f8-069c5cb51068/68e40347-6f06-4fcd-a99a-68f539058433/allium%20team%20montage.jpeg]

Responsibilities

  • Pro Athlete Mindset - Consistency. Day in and day out, in pursuit of excellence. A win yesterday does not guarantee (or even imply!) a win tomorrow. I hope anyone who supports a failing sports team will feel the pain (cough Man United fans) of inconsistency
  • Leading from the Front - No one is going to listen (and adopt) your suggestion unless you lead by example.
  • It's one thing to say We need to do XYZ this better & it's another thing to build an MVP and say "This is the way we should do things".
  • The result is a neutral, canonical data layer institutions can build on with confidence.

Requirements

  • If you can't learn it, find someone or a product that does it.
  • If you can't find someone, find someone who can find someone.
  • If you're looking for a superpower, you can't go wrong with responsiveness.

Skills

  • Permissionless nature leads to fragmentation of meaning
  • Decentralization leads to too many standards https://xkcd.com/927/
  • Neutrality means that no one is accountable for interpretations
  • Obsessiveness
  • Pro Athlete Mindset
  • Figure It Out & Extreme Ownership
  • Leading from the Front
  • Sense of (allium) business smell

Benefits

  • Medical, Dental, Vision, Life and AD&D insurance
  • US folks get 100% coverage for Gold plans, 80% for dependents
  • Meaningful early-stage equity.
  • Every full-time employee receives a stock option grant so you can share directly in Allium's upside
  • Flexible, trust-based paid time off.
  • In every country we hire, our policies meet or exceed local statutory vacation requirements
  • Bonus points for the right pronunciation.

Company info

  • The Information's Top 50 Startups (https://www.allium.so/post/allium-named-to-the-informations-50-most-promising-startups-of-2025)
  • Mario Gabriele from The Generalist's Future 50 Startup List: https://www.allium.so/post/allium-named-awardee-of-the-generalists-inaugural-future-50-startups
  • Tomasz Tungus from Theory Ventures: https://tomtunguz.com/allium/

  • OK, NOW FOR SOME TOUGH LOVE.
  • Obsessiveness - The best people at Allium cannot put a problem down once they pick it up. We care more about the work than is strictly rational. Institutions trust us because our data is right. Right means caring about the small things. The decoded contract that ships with one wrong field. The label that is 99% accurate but wrong on the address that matters. The query that runs in 4 seconds when it should run in 400 milliseconds. Most companies tolerate these. We do not.
  • Obsessiveness shows up as depth of care.
  • It is not measured in hours worked or visible effort.
  • You should feel something physical when work ships half-right.
  • That instinct is what we hire for.
  • Figure It Out & Extreme Ownership - Every day is unexplored territory. There are new engineering frameworks, new legal docs, new compliance, new sales, new regulations, and new operational procedures every single day. If you don't know it, learn it. If you can't learn it, find someone or a product that does it. If you can't find someone, find someone who can find someone. It is never lack of resources, but lack of resourcefulness.
  • High Agency - (One of) the highest commonality between all successful people is their responsiveness, most successful billionaire CEOs still reply to emails within minutes (within working hours). And when you reply, respond fast with effective solutions - and even better, resolutions. If you're looking for a superpower, you can't go wrong with responsiveness. Well of course this doesn't make sense when you're an engineer coding in flow, but in general high agency of problem solving gets one very far in life
  • Leading from the Front - No one is going to listen (and adopt) your suggestion unless you lead by example. It's one thing to say We need to do XYZ this better & it's another thing to build an MVP and say "This is the way we should do things". The proof of work and momentum goes a long way.
