About Juniper Square
Our mission is to unlock the full potential of private markets. Privately owned assets like commercial real estate, private equity, and venture capital make up half of our financial ecosystem yet remain inaccessible to most people. We are digitizing these markets, and as a result, bringing efficiency, transparency, and access to one of the most productive corners of our financial ecosystem. If you care about making the world a better place by making markets work better through technology – all while contributing as a member of a values-driven organization – we want to hear from you.
Juniper Square offers employees a variety of ways to work, ranging from a fully remote experience to working full-time in one of our physical offices. We invest heavily in digital-first operations, allowing our teams to collaborate effectively across most US states, 2 Canadian Provinces, and Mexico. We also have physical offices in San Francisco, CA and Austin, TX, for employees who prefer to work in an office some or all of the time.
GP Experience
Juniper Square serves two sides of the private capital markets, the investment managers (GPs) and the investors (LPs). The GP eXperience team (i.e., GPX) is responsible for Juniper Square’s product offering for General Partners (GPs). This is our core product that enables all other innovation at Juniper Square as we unlock and improve the world’s private capital markets. Our platform handles billions of dollars of transactions each month and we are actively expanding into additional private asset classes such as Venture Capital & Private Equity. Come help us innovate in fundraising, reporting, asset-ownership mapping, and more.
The Team
We are currently hiring for Software Engineer II, Back End within two GPX teams:
Our CRM team handles building CRM capabilities which helps General Partners strengthen and understand their relationships with existing and prospective investors. You will also work on our greenfield project to build a new 3rd party integrations platform that will reduce time to market for new integrations.
Team Equities, also known for asset management, are responsible for building and maintaining the foundational blocks of the GPX Software. Some examples of what you will be responsible for tracking include ownership for all managed investments, and all transactions between investors and the funds regarding an investment. This ensures the right amounts are allocated correctly. Essentially we are powering their information tracking and making it way easier to track who invests in what versus traditional spreadsheets. This will enable new asset classes such as Private Equity Venture Capital (PEVC) and many others in the future.
