Senior React Developer

Perk is building a platform that inspires investment through shareholder rewards. Our platform allows individual users to connect a brokerage account, and explore public companies offering discounts, products, and experiences to their retail shareholders.
We’re not a typical startup. Perk is building a new sub-industry of Shareholder Rewards, and we’re excited to have a flourishing waitlist of excited users, alongside snowballing interest from large public companies trading on US exchanges. Retail shareholders, who now make up 25% of market volume, deserve more access (like institutional investors have enjoyed for decades), and public American companies are finally understanding this.
We’re backed by some incredible investors, including FinTech founders (who exited via IPO), FinTech executives at top banks, fund managers, and startup founders raising Series B+.
