Runway is a collaborative business planning platform designed to make business intuitively understandable for everyone.
Our Mission: To make business accessible and understandable to everyone. We believe that teams that understand the “why” behind their work are more productive and make better decisions. True alignment and collaboration come from having a shared source of truth that everyone understands.
Our Approach: Runway replaces traditional spreadsheets with a modern planning platform that brings clarity and context to business operations for all teams — not just finance. Just as Figma made design accessible across the organization, Runway does the same for business planning.
Why It Matters: Understanding requires more than just access to numbers; real collaboration happens when teams see how their work fits into the bigger picture. By providing this context, Runway helps teams save time and move faster.
Our Customers: World-class companies like AngelList, Superhuman, Stability.AI, ConvertKit, Lambda Labs, Lob, and SandboxVR rely on Runway to run their businesses more efficiently.
Our Investors: We are supported by a select group of investors that we admire, including Garry Tan (YC & Initialized), a16z, Elad Gil, Naval Ravikant, Dylan Field (founder of Figma), Eric Ries, Claire Hughes Johnson (COO of Stripe), Henry Ward (founder of Carta), Akshay Kothari (COO of Notion), Eugene Wei, Lenny Rachitsky, Nikita Bier, Scott Belsky, Soleio Cuervo, Balaji Srinivasan, and many others.
We're remote-first, so you can work from anywhere in North America. We strive to be clear in our communication and over-communicate by default.
It’s early in our journey, so you'll have an opportunity to shape not just our product, but the company itself: how we work together, what makes us stand out, and who we hire.
Below are the values we share as a team — if these resonate with you, you may enjoy working here. (And if you don't like them, please tell us what we're missing in our thinking!)
💩 Give a Shit: Giving a shit can’t be taught. It’s an inner drive that compels you to do what’s right and do it well. Have passion, take pride, and care deeply about your impact.
💡 Create Clarity: Cut through ambiguity and reveal the truth. Start with why, then answer how and what. Treat problems like puzzles, dig deeper, and find the right path.
🤝 Build Trust: With trust, it’s safe to take risks. We get there by being open, honest, and accountable. Actively listen, speak your mind, and consistently show up.
✨ Raise the Bar: Scrap the status quo and push yourself to create something that wows. Get others excited to do the same. Iterate, elevate, and don’t stop moving forward.
Build product & infrastructure: As an early engineer, you’ll play a key role in shaping the architectural decisions that allow Runway to scale to meet the needs of our growing customer base. We’re looking for folks excited to have a big impact on our core infrastructure and approach to devops at Runway. You'll also work closely with the design and PM teams to plan and implement our core product.
Build our technical foundation: Work we do today can make our future work better and faster. Since our product is tackling a complex problem, we’ll need to build a foundation that is flexible and allows us to adapt to a wide variety of product needs.
Grow the team: Everyone on the early team plays an important role in attracting, closing, and growing other talented team members. The biggest factor in our ability to build amazing products is the team, so we look to you to help set the example for the kind of team we all want to build together.
Building a formula evaluation and query engine that allows customers to scale beyond any spreadsheet
Supporting an integrations platform with hundreds of connections and the ability to query millions of rows of data
Enabling customers to flexibly and joyfully create financial models using data from any part of their business
Scaling our infrastructure to support the future growth of Runway
5+ years of professional backend engineering experience - We’re looking for somebody comfortable with taking on senior-level work out of the gate. Staff-level experience is a plus.
A track record of building robust, scalable systems - We’re always seeking the right balance between moving fast and building for the long haul. We're looking for someone who has thrived at tackling complex technical challenges in fast-paced environments.
An ownership mindset - At Runway, we position our team to understand customer problems, and give them the autonomy to find the best path forward.
Pride in your craft - We’re looking for people who take pride in their work and are always looking to improve it. If our work doesn’t matter to us, we won’t end up mattering to our customers.
An inclusive approach to your work - We’re looking for somebody who loves to collaborate cross-functionally to achieve great customer outcomes and who is excited to contribute to our culture.

Build product - As part of the engineering team and working across the stack at Runway, you'll be working closely with design and product to plan, architect, and implement our core product.

A track record of building high-quality products fast - Runway’s got big ambitions to be the best way since Excel to model your business. This is a high standard - and we need folks that can live up to it. We’re also a startup and that means we have to work quickly.
A growth mindset - We’re looking for people who take pride in their work and are always looking to improve it. If your work doesn’t matter to you, it won’t end up mattering to our customers. If you’re not growing, your impact won’t grow either.
A collaborative approach to your work - We’re looking for somebody who loves to solve customer problems - and not just in the engineering silo. You’ll work with PM, design, CX, sales, marketing, and users to build the product. You’ll also work with all of us to shape the culture.

Our Mission: To make business accessible and understandable to everyone. We believe that teams that understand the “why” behind their work are more productive and make better decisions. True alignment and collaboration come from having a shared source of truth that everyone understands.
Our Approach: Runway replaces traditional spreadsheets with a modern planning platform that brings clarity and context to business operations for all teams — not just finance. Just as Figma made design accessible across the organization, Runway does the same for business planning.
Why It Matters: Understanding requires more than just access to numbers; real collaboration happens when teams see how their work fits into the bigger picture. By providing this context, Runway helps teams save time and move faster.
Our Customers: World-class companies like AngelList, Superhuman, Stability.AI, ConvertKit, Lambda Labs, Lob, and SandboxVR rely on Runway to run their businesses more efficiently.
Our Investors: We are supported by a select group of investors that we admire, including Garry Tan (YC & Initialized), a16z, Elad Gil, Naval Ravikant, Dylan Field (founder of Figma), Eric Ries, Claire Hughes Johnson (COO of Stripe), Henry Ward (founder of Carta), Akshay Kothari (COO of Notion), Eugene Wei, Lenny Rachitsky, Nikita Bier, Scott Belsky, Soleio Cuervo, Balaji Srinivasan, and many others.
We're early, so you'll have an opportunity to shape not just our product, but the company itself: who we work with, and how we work together.
We strive to be clear in our communication and over-communicate by default.
We're remote-first, so you can work from anywhere in North America. However, we also believe in the value of face-time to solve really hard problems, so we:
Meet together as a company every quarter in our San Francisco office.
Open up offices in places with many teammates (we currently have offices in SF and NYC).
Make it easy to fly out and meet together.
Below are the values we share as a team, so if you like these, you’ll enjoy working here.
💩 Give a Shit: Giving a shit can’t be taught. It’s an inner drive that compels you to do what’s right and do it well. Have passion, take pride, and care deeply about your impact.
💡 Create Clarity: Cut through ambiguity and reveal the truth. Start with why, then answer how and what. Treat problems like puzzles, dig deeper, and find the right path.
🤝 Build Trust: With trust, it’s safe to take risks. We get there by being open, honest, and accountable. Actively listen, speak your mind, and consistently show up.
✨ Raise the Bar: Scrap the status quo and push yourself to create something that wows. Get others excited to do the same. Iterate, elevate, and don’t stop moving forward.
You'll lead and scale our engineering team during a critical growth phase. This means building a high-performing team, establishing engineering excellence, and shipping products that help finance teams become true strategic partners to their organizations.
Day to day, you'll be hiring exceptional engineers, setting technical direction alongside our founders, unblocking your team, and fostering a culture where people do the best work of their careers. You'll be hands-on enough to make architectural decisions when needed, while spending most of your time multiplying the impact of others.
Core Skillset
Demonstrated success building engineering teams at high-growth startups (Series A through growth stage)
Track record of improving team output—increasing shipping cadence (especially through the use of AI), making incidents rare, and accelerating hiring velocity
Experience building a culture of high standards where engineers are proud of what they ship
Strong full-stack engineering background that allows you to be the architectural tie-breaker when needed
Track record of guiding teams to strong technical outcomes
Secondary Skillset
Experience with our stack: React/TypeScript + Go
Data engineering background
Founder experience (YC or equivalent) with firsthand understanding of building from zero to one
Fintech, SaaS, or B2B software background
Passion for making complex financial concepts accessible to non-finance users
Team growth: Successfully hiring and retaining exceptional engineers
Shipping velocity: Increasing the pace and quality of what we deliver to customers
Engineering health: Reducing incidents, improving reliability, and maintaining technical excellence
Team engagement: Building a team where people are excited to come to work
Impact: Help finance teams operate like strategic partners, not spreadsheet managers.
Innovation: Work on the frontier of fintech and business intelligence.
Growth: Shape the engineering culture and practices of a company at an inflection point.
At Runway, our commitment to our mission goes hand in hand with our dedication to cultivating the next generation of entrepreneurs. Around 10% of our team members have been founders themselves, and several early employees have successfully exited to start their own ventures - some backed by our founder Siqi Chen, who has invested in over 200 startups to date.
By stepping into this role, you'll help shape and grow an array of customer businesses, gaining firsthand insights into diverse operational strategies, monetization models, and long-term vision planning. Paired with our open and transparent culture, Runway offers a uniquely supportive environment for those aspiring to launch their own company in the future.
