Grade D

Why this grade This listing scored 45/100, which is a D. It lost the most ground on pay transparency. See the breakdown

Freshness 15 / 15 How recently it was posted. Older postings are likelier to be filled or abandoned.
Description depth 14 / 20 How much the posting actually says about the work, measured in characters of real text.
Remote clarity 8 / 15 Whether "remote" means anywhere, or is quietly restricted to one country.
Corroboration 5 / 10 Whether more than one source carries this listing.
Role specificity 3 / 10 Whether the listing is tagged well enough to tell what the role actually is.
Pay transparency 0 / 25 A published salary range, worth more than any other single factor because it is what a candidate cannot find out without applying.

Every figure above is arithmetic over the posting itself — its salary field, its text, its age, its tags and how many sources carry it. How the grades work →

hn-hiring

Exponent is a financial platform for franchise and multi-location restaurant operators: charge cards, loans, and an AI-powered Accountant that pulls in an operator's POS, bank, payroll and processor data, reconciles it, and automates the monthly close.
You'd own core systems in the Accountant: idempotent ingestion from unreliable third-party APIs, the background jobs that keep thousands of accounts in sync, and the decisions about how LLM classification behaves inside a ledger that has to be right. Full stack, focused on backend architecture. Rails, Postgres, Sidekiq. We ship multiple times a day.
We want someone who ships fast and knows when to slow down. 5+ years, deep experience in any server-side framework (Rails, Django, Phoenix, TypeScript), and fluent with AI-assisted development. Fintech and Rails experience are strong pluses.
