About AngelList Private markets are the new public markets. The most important companies of this era are private, and almost no one can own them. What's missing is the financial system public markets spent a century building: exchanges, custodians, brokers, and ways for ordinary people to buy in. Private markets, now $28T, never had the equivalent. AngelList is building it. The last decade of structural innovation in venture happened here: syndicates, SPVs at scale, Rolling Funds, scout programs. Today we have $200B+ in assets and 30,000+ startups funded on our platform. The rest of private markets is next. Funds is the software and services behind private funds, Nova is the banking network, Meridian is the wealth platform for accredited investors, and USVC is the brand behind a registered fund that lets anyone invest in venture. Working here means an unusual amount of agency on a problem that matters. Titles are closer to suggestions, and there are about 200 of us building what private markets never had. Come build it with us.

About the Role: Meridian is AngelList’s wealth platform for private markets. Meridian is building wealth products for the growing class of self-directed investors who want unique and direct access to private markets. Built on more than a decade of AngelList innovation, Meridian extends the platform that already supports founders and fund managers to serve investors now. Meridian is early, and this role presents an opportunity to help shape the next generation of products for private market investing. As a Senior Software Engineer on Meridian, you’ll own the technical design and delivery of major product surfaces across investing and portfolio management, from early architecture and sequencing tradeoffs through launch and iteration. This is a founding engineer role on a zero-to-one product with meaningful distribution, regulatory complexity, and infrastructure leverage. You’ll work closely with product, design, compliance, and supply to shape what private market investing feels like for the next decade.
