About Metal
Metal is an AI-powered operating system for founders raising venture rounds. Used by thousands of founders across the globe, our platform brings deep intelligence to the core workflows involved in fundraising. In the long term, our mission is to build the rails of the venture industry — bringing speed, clarity, and efficiency to every round.
About the Role
We're looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer who is equally at home designing a high-throughput backend API and building a polished, high-performance frontend experience. This is a role for someone who thinks in systems, ships with conviction, and takes deep ownership of their work — from database schema to UI component.
This role is ideal for someone who is intellectually curious, thrives in high-performance environments, and has the drive to set new standards in engineering. We're not just hiring a engineer — we’re hiring a builder, a strategist, and a future leader.
What You’ll Do
Build, scale, and maintain full stack systems across Node.js, TypeScript, React, and Next.js (or Similar)
Design and implement performant APIs, background jobs, and async data workflows
Develop advanced frontend systems that deliver a seamless experience for startup founders managing fundraising workflows
Drive key technical decisions that balance business goals, product needs, and long-term scalability
Lead architecture and design discussions across both the frontend and backend domains
Collaborate closely with founders, design, and other engineering teams to ship meaningful features
Own performance, reliability, and observability across your services
Write clean, testable code and participate in high-quality code reviews
Mentor other engineers and help define engineering standards and team culture
Proactively identify opportunities to improve architecture, speed, and developer experience
What We’re Looking For
Non-Negotiable Qualities
Exceptional Technical Ability: You’ve led the build of complex systems at scale and have deep expertise in TypeScript, React & Next.js (or similar).
Professionalism & Drive: You show up on time, own outcomes, communicate proactively, and bring a sense of urgency to your work.
Intellectual Curiosity & Learning Capacity: You take initiative to understand the “why,” ask hard questions, and build strong product intuition over time.
Minimum Qualifications
5+ years of experience in full stack engineering
Proven ability to lead projects and make architectural decisions
Mastery of modern frameworks and patterns (React, Next.js, TypeScript)
Experience building design systems or reusable component libraries
Excellent communication skills and a collaborative mindset
Experience balancing speed, scope, and tech debt in a startup or fast-moving environment
Preferred
Experience building software for other developers (internal tools, SDKs, platforms)
A strong sense of design and user experience
Familiarity with full-stack environments and backend integration
Background in high-growth startups or product-led companies
Our Engineering Culture
We believe velocity comes from excellence in process, not chaos. We operate without a dedicated QA team, which means every engineer is responsible for quality. We value those who think across both product and system boundaries, and who can move fluidly between frontend and backend domains.
Why Join Metal?
This is a rare opportunity to join a product-driven company at a pivotal inflection point. You’ll work alongside the founders on complex, meaningful problems, helping shape the core product experience of the infrastructure layer for startup fundraising.
We move fast but never compromise on craftsmanship — our team obsesses over quality, velocity, and long-term impact. Together, we’re defining what elite engineering looks like in Pakistan — and beyond.
