Company info
- Grit is on a mission to crush technical debt.
- We believe that a big challenge in the next decade will be crumbling digital infrastructure.
- Our entire modern economy runs on code, but we haven't developed appropriate tools to ensure software remains reliable over time.
- Companies know that technical debt threatens the reliability of their services and slows down the pace of innovation, but struggle to find enough engineering talent to fix issues-most software maintenance today is still done manually and delayed as long as possible.
- We believe there is a better way: we're building AI bots that automatically maintain software through a combination of static analysis, our own query language, and machine learning.
- Founders Fund and Abstract Ventures led our $7M seed round and we have many paying customers on our beta product.
- Our team is currently 5 engineers.
- This is a multi-disciplinary role which involves directly coding new features, developing transformations for open source problems, and working directly with customers on their requirements.
- Location Policy We believe that the most impactful work is done through high bandwidth in-person collaboration, particularly at an early-stage company.
