Substack

Substack lets writers start their own subscription publication - think paid blog/newsletter - where writers' and readers' incentives are aligned. Over 250k people pay to subscribe to publications, and top writers are making six figures. We use Node, Express, and Postgres on top of Heroku. React for frontend. Simple & effective so we can focus on solving problems for users. We are 17 people. We raised a series A from a16z last summer and are thoughtfully building our early team. Two of our three founders are technical (the other is a writer) and we're looking for folks to work along side us, shipping things that touch thousands of writers and millions of readers. Come join us!
