We think it’s insane that so many people and businesses rely on notes as a primary means of remembering and sharing insights from video calls.
Notes are time consuming and stressful to create while trying to hold a conversation. Even when done well, notes are a poor solution compared to hearing something first-hand.
We started Fathom to rid us all of the tyranny of note-taking and in just over a year we’ve already accomplished a lot:
- 🚀#1 Zoom App on the new Zoom App Marketplace
- 🥇#1 Product of the Day and #5 Product of the Month for Dec 2021 on Product Hunt
- 💖4.9/5 Rating on G2 - READ OUR REVIEWS
- 💸We’ve raised a $4.7M seed round from a number of great investors including the CEOs of Twitch, Reddit, Cruise, Clearbit, and many more.
- 📈We’re hitting usage records every week

After a year of heads down building, we’re looking to add a couple senior full-stack engineers to our 5-person engineering team so we can ship even faster.
We assume that you’re experienced and great at what you do so let’s instead tell you about us and what you can expect if you join us:
🔥 WHY YOU SHOULD JOIN US
- We’re smart and GSD (get shit done). You’ll work alongside our 5-person, all-senior engineering team (3 PhDs and 1 Masters in Computer Science, plus a front-end guy who can sing karaoke).
- We embrace being fully remote. We schedule meetings sparingly and instead heavily use async comms (Slack, Notion, Loom)
- Opportunity for impact. We’re established enough to be able to ship instead of fight fires but also early enough enough that your work will have a real impact.
- Experienced management. You’ll work closely with our CEO who is a 2X Founder/CEO (previously started UserVoice) and who has a background in Computer Science as well as product design.
- Great comp. We only want the best so we provide above market salaries, generous equity, and full benefits. We don’t adjust your salary based upon where you happen to live.
➡️ ABOUT OUR HIRING PROCESS
- No live coding. We have no idea who thought writing code on whiteboards was a good idea but we hate it. We’re much more interested in what you’ve done and learned.
- You’ll meet the entire team. We think it’s important that you get to meet everyone you’ll be working with.
- No bullshit. Ask us anything you like. We’ve never understood why companies pretend they’re something that they’re not in the hiring process - you’re going to find out eventually so we’d rather you know who we are up front so we can both make sure this is a good fit for all involved.
- Quick turnaround time. We know you have lots of options so we move fast usually in less than a week from start to finish.
⚙️ TECH STACK
We use all of the following technologies. Your knowledge of these would be helpful but you need not be familiar with all of them.
GKE, S3, Ruby/Rails/Sidekiq, Go, Electron, Typescript/TSX, Stencil, Elasticsearch, C , Kafka, MySQL, Redis, Pusher, GitHub Actions, Docker, ArgoCD, CircleCI
✅ HARD REQUIREMENTS
Outside of the obvious technical skills, GSD mindset, and ability to thrive in a remote environment we do have a few hard requirements that you should be aware of:
- Must speak English fluently
- We’re open to international hires but you must be based in a time zone close to those of the mainland US.
- You must have a number of years of production experience under your belt. We have no junior folks on our team nor the bandwidth to mentor them (yet).
