We are a value-based company with a core focus on being humble, transparent, ambitious and impactful, all in order to delivery the best experience for our customers and end users.

We are proud to partner with some of the world's leading investors. New Enterprise Associates led our $22m Series B round in 2022, with Philip Chopin joining Sequoia's Luciana Lixandru on our board.

Teams we're hiring for

Core Equity — Owns the foundational logic that powers Ledgy's equity engine. Every equity-related event such as issuing shares, creating new pools, or adjusting ownership — generates transactions. This team defines and maintains the transaction logic, data model, and core domain behaviour that ensure Ledgy's platform remains accurate, scalable, and compliant.

Workflows & Automation — Focuses on automating complex equity workflows and integrating with third-party services, including the trading exchange. The team builds systems that help company admins efficiently onboard and offboard employees, automate equity grants and terminations, and enable employees to sell their shares seamlessly once vested.

Reporting — Transforms Ledgy's core equity data into financial, operational, and compliance reports. The team manages large, complex datasets and ensures reporting is accurate, performant, and reliable across jurisdictions and company structures. Their work powers the insights companies and auditors rely on for decision-making and transparency.
