About Alinea

Alinea Invest, an AI-powered wealth management app for GenZ, raised $15.5M+ to date and just closed a Series A led by Play Ventures, with investors including Y Combinator, F7 Ventures, Worklife Ventures, Kima Ventures, Harvard, Arash Ferdowsi (Dropbox cofounder), ex-Robinhood employees. Alinea’s mission is to redefine wealth management for the next generation with AI-powered personalization tailored to every stage of your journey. Today, 1M+ investors use Alinea: 92% are female and 70% are GenZ's (avg age: 22). The company grew 6x YoY in 2024 to $6M in net revenue run-rate with a team of 10. The startup was founded in 2021 by Anam Lakhani & Eve Halimi (Forbes Under 30) (ex Goldman, Citi), who met at Barnard College/Columbia University and have been working on the problem for 4+ years. The app is available here.

We make building wealth feel approachable, personalized, and community-driven. Now, we’re looking for a true builder to help us take our product and team to the next level.

What You’ll Do

Own & Ship: Architect, build, and launch core features — from onboarding and personalized investing plans to auto-invest and beyond.

Collaborate & Lead: Work closely with the founders, designers, and growth team to shape product decisions and move fast.

Set Culture & Standards: Help define what great engineering looks like at Alinea. Create a culture of curiosity, collaboration, and high execution.

Move Like a Founder: Make high-impact decisions, move quickly with conviction, and care deeply about the details — because this is your company too.

You Might Be a Fit If You’ve Ever...

Built From Scratch: Launched a product, personal project, or MVP that people actually used.

Made It Work: Tackled an “impossible” problem with creativity and scrappiness — duct-taping APIs, debugging SwiftUI quirks, or teaching yourself a stack overnight.

Thrived in Chaos: Performed best in fast-paced, ambiguous environments where action > process.

Obsessed Over UX: Cared just as much about how the product feels as how the code is written.

Spoken Up: Had strong product opinions and weren’t afraid to share them.

Our Tech Stack

Frontend: Swift + SwiftUI

Backend: Node.js (Express) + TypeScript

Database & Infrastructure: MongoDB + AWS (EB, EC2, CloudWatch, CodeDeploy)

Why Join Us?

Be part of a mission-driven company revolutionizing how a generation invests.

Join early and help shape the product, team, and culture from the ground up.

Competitive compensation and equity — you’ll be on the cap table.

A team that values speed, ambition, and thoughtful execution.

Bonus Questions (Optional but Encouraged):

  • What’s the scrappiest thing you’ve built from 0 to 1?
  • What’s a task or goal you were given that felt impossible — but you found a way to make it happen?

If this sounds like you, we’d love to chat. Let’s build the future of investing together
