OpStart is searching for an innovative and experienced Senior Full-Stack Engineer to lead technology execution in line with our mission. Â
Â
Our product today is a finance department in a box for startups â we take over management of all accounting and finance tasks, allowing entrepreneurs to focus on their product and growth while OpStart keeps their books clean and compliant.
