FutureAdvisor is an eight-person, Sequoia-backed startup remaking saving & investing for the average American family. Today customers already entrust us to advise them on $4 Billion in retirement assets.<p>Why this matters: Today big banks and brokerages siphon billions of dollars a year in fees from our collective 401(k)s and IRAs. We’re fixing this, with amazingly smooth user experiences built atop decades of finance research. Diligent, methodical software reduces costs, while our index-investing ethos increases returns in the long run. This is how wealthy families manage their money today, but because software scales better than people in suits, we can bring this world-class financial management to everyone.<p>We work with Rails, CoffeeScript, Sass, and a bit of Java, but we don't care if you haven't. We firmly believe that great engineers can learn any technology needed on the job - our first engineer spent years crafting operating systems in C++ before this.<p>Many talented engineers in finance end up spending their lives making the rich richer. Instead, come join us and use your talents to make millions of everyday families keep more of what's theirs.<p>We'd love to hear from you: hackernews@futureadvisor.com (note: job based in SOMA in SF)
