About company

Stable makes it simple to headquarter a business from the internet. Today, we provide companies with a business address and a dashboard to manage their physical mail online. Over 3000+ companies like Ethos Life, Hipcamp, and Indiegogo use Stable to automate their mailroom and act as their permanent business address with the IRS, state, and vendors. ‍


Regulations for US entities were written in the 1800s and have changed little since. The result is a confusing system based on antiquated assumptions about the way businesses operate — requiring physical addresses, demanding wet signatures, and communicating through physical mail. ‍


These rules don't make sense for the way we work today — work takes place in the cloud and businesses are no longer tied to physical proximity or geography. ‍ We’re on a mission to fix the broken system of entity management. Starting with business addresses and mail, we’re abstracting the complex, archaic systems that make company-building painful and turning them into delightful experiences — so that modern businesses have the tools they need to move forward faster. ‍


We're backed by leading Silicon Valley investors like Y Combinator, Craft Ventures, Shakti, Hustle Fund, and founders from companies like Lattice, Apartment List, and FlexJobs.

About the role

Over 3,000 businesses use Stable — they are supported by our small (but growing) engineering team. We have no product managers and one designer. We’re proud of this, and expect every software engineer to get to know our customers and stakeholders deeply because we believe that’s the best way to build tools to help them.

Our business is scaling, and we’re tackling difficult problems because of it — from APIs, to internal tools, to customer facing web applications, the infrastructure you build here will empower our growing customer base, team, partners, and consumers. 

Stable is simplifying outdated and convoluted regulatory frameworks with software. As an engineer on our team, you’ll create elegant abstractions over archaic foundations so that consumers of this infrastructure can unlock solutions never before possible.

Your day-to-day work will directly influence how customers and partners interact with our products. Here are a few examples of the types of projects you’ll work on:

  • Stable Dashboard — A modern web application for customers to view and take action on their mail, find meaningful business information, and more. From founders to ops teams to HR, our users log in to Stable daily to handle critical business operations.
  • Mail Operations — Build the internal web applications and integrate with the hardware at the nexus of our physical and digital mail operations. These tools power workflows like physical mail ingestion, fulfillment of operational requests, warehouse inventorying, and more.
  • Core Infrastructure — Architect, implement, and scale the underlying infrastructure that powers our products and physical logistics. 
  • Stable API — A public API that allows consumers to utilize the software abstractions we’ve put over our physical operations for use cases in industries like fintech, healthcare, and more.


This role is ideal for engineers invigorated by solving difficult problems and by building software with a large impact. You’ll be one of the first engineers at an early-stage startup, and should be excited to apply your analytical, hacker-first, mindset towards problems of all types.


😀 Who you are

  • Driven by impact: You consistently see the possibility in what could be. The idea that you can make the future better than the present is exciting — and you want to be surrounded by others that share this ambition.
  • Learn by doing: You are motivated by results — you collect the information you need to understand which problems are most important to solve first. When challenges arise, you believe the best way to solve them is by tackling them head on.
  • Form deep relationships: You can easily put yourself in others’ shoes and enjoy understanding varying perspectives. You’ve found a result of this tendency are relationships you care about deeply.


✅ What You'll Do

  • Obsess over the customer to build pragmatic and effective solutions to their problems
  • Architect and implement core infrastructure as we scale with growing customer and product demand
  • Improve engineering best practices for code deployment, review, and development
  • Pull from previous engineering experiences to creatively solve real world logistics problems using software
  • Lead product and feature implementation while balancing customer, team member, and stakeholder requirements with engineering team priorities
  • Technologies we use: React, Typescript, Node, GraphQL, MySQL, and AWS (if you think a new technology can solve an engineering problem, we’re all ears)
