Layer is an end to end data operating system which provides a unified data layer to perform data science through a simplified, collaborative, and automated platform. Layer makes data science accessible to companies of all sizes by enabling them to trust, collaborate on, and leverage their data for impactful insights and data-driven business logic and decisions.
We are founded by a serial entrepreneur, who most recently sold his startup ($100M+ EBITDA run rate) The founding team also a partner at a top European VC and an ex-Google/Palantir engineer. We are bootstrapped so far and might consider a $3-5M seed round in the near future before a sizeable Series A planned in the next 12 months.
We have an all-remote culture as we aspire to work with the best talent, no matter where they live. We hope to assemble a world-class team and hire about ~15 people in the next few months. Initially, we are looking to hire within the GMT-1 to GMT+5 time zones but we are happy to make exceptions for truly exceptional candidates (if you are a Spark guru/committer, for instance) We pay competitive salaries (around Google/Facebook UK base salaries) and give stock options, among other perks.
Our tech stack is React/TypeScript on the frontend, Python at the backend, Spark as the underlying computation engine. We are currently looking for experienced candidates. Prior startup experience or being a prolific open source contributor is a plus.
