We're building a system that represents domain knowledge as modular probabilistic models — making analysis rigorous and transparent. Users can connect these models flexibly into larger structures. The system enforces consistency across them, and propagates uncertainty through each step. Our first applications are in finance and scientific research, with use cases ranging from equity valuation and distress monitoring, to particle physics.

We’re looking for strong product software engineers to build and deliver end-to-end solutions, making our system production ready. You’ll bring full stack expertise, contributing to development across the frontend (TypeScript+React), backend for frontend (tRPC + drizzle, postgres), and backend (Julia, Rust) of our application.

We're researching and developing entirely new kinds of interactive interfaces for analysts to collect, map out, synthesise, and report on their discoveries. If you’re inspired to build novel technology for people, PlantingSpace will be a great fit for you.

Useful experience

• Working with users or product managers to architect and deliver smooth end-to-end solutions

• Building dynamic user interfaces (React, Vue, Svelte, NextJS)

• Building interfaces with React Flow

• Familiarity with important infrastructure components: databases (Postgres, Redis), networking, auth

• TypeScript or usage of some more functional or typed languages, e.g. Julia, Rust, OCaml, Clojure, C++, or Haskell

• Mathematics, Computer Science, or Statistics advanced degree

Responsibilities

• Define new features or fixes, based on awareness of overall objectives and challenges

• Commit to delivering defined features or fixes end-to-end

• Define implementation strategies, and work with others to implement them

• Leverage the expertise of other team members effectively

• Write design documents for more complex problems

• Write clean and performant code

• Help other team members to deliver on their goals

Required mindset

We've found that our successful team members share some key characteristics, and as we've grown our team, these are the qualities we've learned to seek out. We take pride in our strong, collaborative culture, and these core attributes not only reflect our shared values, but can help you evaluate how well you might fit into our team:

• A builder at heart: You’re passionate about building things, solving complex problems, and approaching challenges with an entrepreneurial spirit and humility. Your sharp sense of prioritisation gives you a laser focus on delivering results that uplift the entire team, moving us closer to our goal.

• Results-driven: You thrive when taking full ownership of tasks, seeing them through from start to finish, and taking accountability for the results. You’re proactive, resourceful, and avoid over-complication - anticipating problems, even in complex, uncertain environments.

• Growth mindset: You are intellectually curious, have a critical mind, and seek opportunities to stretch your abilities. You explore the state-of-the-art, you dig deep to truly understand a problem, and question assumptions.

• A strong collaborator: You naturally communicate with clarity and purpose, ensuring your ideas and updates are easily understood. You work efficiently, embracing an iterative approach that allows for frequent progress and course correction. You’re open to direct feedback, adapting quickly and using it to improve both your work, and the performance of those around you.

• Approaching problems and tasks like a project manager:

  • You can take a given goal and break it down into smaller parts.

  • You can solve problems systematically, by yourself as well as collaboratively with others.

  • You involve others in effective problem-solving sessions because you value getting to the best solution over being right.

  • You document processes well to ensure others can jump in to collaborate effectively.
