Working at Neynar
Tech stack
- Backend: Node.js, Typescript, Postgres, Redis, Influx
- Frontend: React, React Native, Next.js, Expo
- Data: Python, Parquet, Kafka
- Infra: AWS, Terraform, Docker
Why Neynar?
- Lean team — still below 10 people, everyone is staff+ level and writes code; there are almost no meetings to increase maker time
- Traction — serving public companies like coinbase
- Focus on interesting engineering problems — scaling distributed infrastructure, contributing to decentralized social protocol development
- Silicon Valley compensation w/ cultural benefits of joining an early-stage startup
- Remote — in-person week long company offsites 3-4 times a year
Why not Neynar?
- We focus on shipping fast and iterating — this means sometimes what we build doesn’t work. Continuously doing this allows us to find new products and customers
- Higher intensity than traditional big tech — we know it takes extra effort to take something from 0 → 1
- We require presence in our online Gather office — everyone works similar hours and is required to be physically based within American longitudes to align timezones
