About Strala

Strala is rebuilding insurance claims as an AI-native operator, automating intake, fraud detection and settlement across the claims lifecycle. It reached multi-seven-figure ARR in under a year.

Strala has raised two rounds from tier-1 funds including Founders Fund (about $51M within a year of its 2025 seed). The team of about 25, including 11 engineers, comes from Harvard, Berkeley, Oxford, Optiver, AMD and Palantir, and plans to reach 100 by year end.

The Role

  • Build core infrastructure, databases (PostgreSQL, vector databases) and architecture.

  • Scale the codebase to support rapid growth.
  • Work directly with the founding team and help hire your next teammates.

  • Strong Python and backend fundamentals with a record of shipping production code fast
  • System design depth: PostgreSQL, vector databases and scalable architecture
  • Cloud fluency: REST, GraphQL, GCP, AWS, Docker
  • High agency and extreme ownership
  • Based in or willing to relocate to San Francisco

Nice to Have

  • ICPC, IOI, NeurIPS or equivalent signal
  • Experience at Optiver, DRW, Citadel or similar
  • Regulated-industry or financial services experience
  • Prior CTO or founding engineer role

Benefits
