<p>Paramark | Software Engineer (L4) | San Francisco HYBRID (3 days/wk) or REMOTE (US) | Full-time | $199K–$249K + equity<p>Paramark helps Marketing teams optimize spend across all of their channels and programs. There are proven scientific ways to do this, but they are poorly understood and practiced by only a tiny fraction of teams. Our product ingests data from all of our customers' marketing channels and uses it to train open-source ML models for both measurement and experimentation.  This makes it possible for any marketer to use these methods.<p>In this domain, it's hard to figure out what to build, and it's even harder to be both accurate and simple. You'll be joining a small team -- we have four product engineers. That means owning systems end to end and having real influence over what gets built. Your typical project will start with a high level goal, and you will figure out the rest.<p>Founded 2023, 15 people, $8M from Greylock and others, cash-flow positive. Reasonable working hours: when the Mercury News covered the return of 996 culture, we were the counterexample. "We don't think early stage startup life requires 18-hour days, or even 12-hour days." <a href="https://www.mercurynews.com/2025/08/25/silicon-valley-startup-grind-long-hours/" rel="nofollow">https://www.mercurynews.com/2025/08/25/silicon-valley-startu...</a>. 4 weeks PTO plus federal holidays, medical/dental/vision (100% of employee premiums, 50% for family).<p>Looking for 8+ years, full-stack. Some exposure to statistics, experimentation, or A/B testing helps.<p>Stack: TypeScript, React, Python, Postgres.  Google Cloud, Kubernetes, FastAPI, taskiq.<p>Process: intro call; technical phone screen; one-day onsite in SF (travel covered for remote candidates)<p>In-person: <a href="https://paramark.com/careers/software-engineer-l4" rel="nofollow">https://paramark.com/careers/software-engineer-l4</a><p>Remote: <a href="https://paramark.com/careers/software-engineer-l4-remote" rel="nofollow">https://paramark.com/careers/software-engineer-l4-remote</a><p>I'm the CTO and I read every application myself. Happy to answer questions in this thread.</p>
