Documentation and Communication: You have experience writing design proposals, documenting solutions, and presenting ideas for feedback. You’re comfortable refining solutions collaboratively and driving them to execution.

At Carta, you’re not just an employee—you’re a builder, creating the infrastructure that accelerates innovation and empowers ownership. Cartans are helpful, relentless, unconventional, and kind, working collaboratively to challenge the status quo and achieve the shared goal of creating more owners in the private markets.

The Interview Process

First, one of our recruiters will call you to tell you more about the job and company. You'll then meet an Engineering leader who will discuss your opportunities at Carta and explore your experience, skills, and goals. We’ll then ask you to show off your skills with a real-world take home exercise (we do not do LeetCode-style interviews, no one will quiz you on writing a doubly-linked list). Finally, you'll have  back-to-back conversations with Carta team members on a wide range of topics, including communications and collaboration, coding efficacy and techniques, and systems design.
