We're hiring!

As we continue our growth journey at Lunch Money, we’re making our most important hire yet: a Full-Stack Software Engineer to help us improve overall infrastructure as we scale, ship new features and improvements, and build out engineering processes for the future.

We offer a chance to build something meaningful, sustainable, and community-driven. If you’re tired of the startup hype machine and want to join a company that’s 100% customer-funded and already profitable, check out our full job listing and link to the application form here.

🙏 Our ask: Given this role’s massive impact on Lunch Money’s future, we are expanding our reach to attract more engineers from more diverse talent pools. We would appreciate it if you reposted or shared this with folks in your network!

What Is Lunch Money?

Lunch Money is a delightfully simple personal finance management tool for modern-day spenders. We launched in August 2019 and serve thousands of users in over 30 countries worldwide.

Over the past five years, as we’ve focused on sustainable and organic growth, we’ve built real connections with a community of folks who believe in what we’re building and how we’re going about it– entirely bootstrapped with no external investors.

Our Current Team

The strength of our community has shaped the incredible team we have at Lunch Money. This advantage led us to find our first three core team members, each with their own special connection to Lunch Money!

Anthony, Marketing Manager: Anthony was one of our earliest adopters. He gave us feedback, pushed for features, and believed in what we were building. Four years later, when we opened a marketing manager role, Anthony was the first to apply!

JP, Developer Advocate: JP was a hyper-enthusiast who discovered Lunch Money after the Mint shutdown announcement. He quickly dove deep into our Developer API to build tools for himself and the community. Eager to work together, JP applied to two roles to get his foot in the door! His second application came in minutes before we reached out with a role to help us expand and improve our developer ecosystem.

Din, Customer Success Lead: Din was referred to us by a former boss and a Lunch Money user. While he wasn’t part of our community initially, his enthusiasm was evident from day one. He jumped right in, fully connecting with our members and embracing our mission. Today, he’s a vital part of our customer success team and a core presence in our community.
