At Trunk, our mission is to help teams create high-quality software quickly. AI has made writing code 10x faster, but shipping is still painfully slow. The bottleneck has shifted downstream - to merge conflicts, flaky tests, inconsistent code quality, and dozens of other frictions that drain productivity and morale. Engineering teams that can stay focused on designing, implementing, and delivering software will build magical, high-quality projects - and they'll be happier doing it. We're building a CI Reliability Platform that empowers teams to land code faster and develop happier.
Our founders launched Trunk in 2021 after designing, delivering, and scaling software at Uber, Google, YouTube, and Microsoft. We raised a $25M Series A led by Initialized Capital (Garry Tan) and a16z (Peter Levine), with investments from Haystack Ventures, Garage VC, and the founders of GitHub (Tom Preston-Werner), Apollo GraphQL (Geoff Schmidt), Algolia (Nicolas Dessaigne), and Peopl.ai (Oleg Rogynsky).
What you'll do 🧑💻
Have 6-8+ years of professional experience.
Know when to dive down the rabbit hole to figure something out and when to pull the plug and work around it.
See a problem and want to solve it (after maybe complaining about it)
Are super productive. We’ll have tons of leadership opportunities as we grow, but right now every person at Trunk is coding all day every day and we have a flat structure.
Believe all code landing on main needs to be tested through unit and integration tests.
Are opinionated about how quality software should be written, but never drown out the thoughts of others.
Solve problems on their own but also know when to raise a hand for help.
