About Stan

đź’ˇOur Mission: Empower anyone to make money working for themselves.

Stan is the Shopify for Content Creators, empowering anyone to make a living working for themselves on the internet.

We're a mission-driven team of high-performers backed by the best VCs (Forerunner, Pear, and Norwest) and angel investors (Kevin Hartz, Michael Ovitz). We help the internet’s biggest Creators build their businesses so they can spend their time doing what they love: Creating. Over the past 2 years, we’ve scaled from $0 to $30M+ ARR—and done so profitably.

If you’re excited about building a world-class team, fostering a thriving company culture, and making an impact on thousands of solopreneurs, we’d love to have you join us.

🌟 About the Team

The Engineering team at Stan is small, senior, and incredibly high impact. In just two years, a team of five full-stack engineers built a $30M+ ARR company, and we’re now scaling toward $100M+.

Engineers at Stan are deeply involved in product decisions, work closely with design and go-to-market partners, and own work end-to-end - from ideation to deployment and iteration.

Our Team Culture

  • Autonomy and Ownership: We're not a traditional top-down organization where you're handed a list of tasks. We want you to take ownership—choose the problems you’re passionate about and solve them your way. Full autonomy, real impact.

  • True Camaraderie and Friendship: As cheesy as it may sound, we genuinely look forward to coming into the office because we love our team. It’s rare to find a group of people who just get you. We’re all deeply passionate about building something incredible and are looking for someone who shares that same drive and mindset.

  • Work with the Best, Learn from the Best: At Stan, we believe in hiring A-players—the best of the best. You’ll work alongside brilliant, hard-working teammates who are not only incredibly sharp but also kind, humble, and genuine. We’re looking for engineers who have it all: a heart, a brain, and fast fingers 🧠❤️⌨️

  • We Show Up—No Matter What: The challenges we face are tough, but we always show up—for each other and, most importantly, for our Creators. No matter the time or day, we’re here to support the mission and protect what we’re building together.
