About the job
At Trunk, our mission is to empower teams to develop high-quality software swiftly. We have partnered with engineering teams at esteemed organizations such as Google X, Zillow, and Brex to identify the root causes of build failures, pinpoint flaky tests, and facilitate faster code delivery without compromising reliability. While AI has accelerated the coding process, the bottleneck has now shifted to issues like merge conflicts, flaky tests, and inconsistent code quality, which can diminish productivity and morale. Engineering teams that focus on designing, implementing, and delivering software will create remarkable, high-quality projects and experience greater job satisfaction.
Founded in 2021 by experts from Uber, Google, YouTube, and Microsoft, Trunk has successfully raised a $25 million Series A funding round led by Initialized Capital (Garry Tan) and a16z (Peter Levine), with additional investments from Haystack Ventures, Garage VC, and notable founders from GitHub (Tom Preston-Werner), Apollo GraphQL (Geoff Schmidt), and Algolia (Nicolas Dessaigne).
