About Neon

Many large companies make billions each year by monetizing Americans’ personal data. At Neon, we’re finally cutting consumers in on the deal. Neon allows our users to make hundreds (or even thousands) of dollars per year by securely selling their anonymized data. We recently raised $25 million dollars from Lightspeed, Upper
90, Upfront Ventures, and other cool investors.

You aren't just here to manage a roadmap; you are here to own the product that sits in the hands of our 500,000+ users. This is a builder’s role. You will be writing code, making the big architectural decisions, and solving hard engineering problems, specifically around VoIP and telephony.

We need someone who can balance the chaos of a startup with the stability required for a consumer app. You’ll be integrating real-time communication tools, jumping into the backend when needed, and ensuring the app works flawlessly whether a user is in New York or halfway across the world. If you want to ship fast, break through technical walls, and see your work impact millions of users across the globe, this is the job for you.
