    Paperless Post exists to help people gather more easily and meaningfully in real life, because we believe that’s how
    relationships thrive. Since 2009, our sophisticated online platform has helped millions of people spend time with the people they care about at life's most important moments. Last year alone, Paperless Post brought nearly 100 million people together. As we move into 2018, we are incredibly excited about the launch of our new product, Flyer, which will leverage our sophisticated tools, alongside new and more versatile design choices and functionality, to allow an even wider range pf people gather every day!

    Our goals this year are centered on building a best in class, flexible, scalable platform to house our two products, as well as anything we dream up in the future! There is a ton of feature development and building to be done. We'd love to talk to you about being part of that!

    The PP Engineering team is a highly collaborative group of developers and technologists that’s charged with building and refining a consumer-facing product that hundreds of thousands of people interact with every day. Our individual feature teams each focus on a unique piece of the user experience and are made up of engineers, product managers, QA, and product designers. We prioritize creativity and continuing education, and our ongoing commitment to quality code shows in our pragmatic but fearless approach to technology.

    Company-wide we enjoy an amazing ecosystem of an even gender split and healthy balance of engineers and designers. Because Paperless Post isn’t supported by ad revenue, we get to spend our days focused on creating and improving on the ideal version of our platform and product.

    Our Lower Manhattan office is easily accessible, our kitchen is well-stocked, and our open floor plan is furnished with a variety of working spaces and lots of natural light. We're not fans of brilliant jerks or endless meetings, but we love hack days, tech talks, happy hours, and the occasional karaoke session.
