At Patio, we are building the future of group communication. Patio is the private community for college: we make it easy for college students and incoming freshmen to chat with classmates in a safe and welcoming space.
We’ve grown quickly since we launched and are funded by leading investors including Forerunner Ventures (backed Glossier, Hims & Hers, Chime, Warby Parker), Redpoint Ventures (backed Stripe, Snowflake, Nextdoor, Twilio), and others.
We are a remote-only startup looking for passionate teammates who are excited to build useful social tools. We take our work seriously, but that doesn’t stop us from having fun in a diverse and collaborative work environment. Pull up a chair and join us at Patio. We’re excited to meet you!

You will have a key role in shaping our backend infrastructure and supporting the rest of the engineering team as they work on new features. This role is absolutely critical to ensuring a great product experience for our users.
