We created Canal to change the way that people discover and sell physical products online. We feel that a user should be able to buy anything, at any point, anywhere on the internet. Behind the scenes, this looks like a network of deep integrations across e-commerce platforms combined with a webapp that connects consumer brands to the people and places that could sell their products. You've heard of distributed systems; we're building the distributed digital economy.
This is a big idea, and we're prioritizing the top minds in tech, who get excited about building production-grade software and scaling it to millions of users, to join our founding team. You will work with a motivated team to define the processes and procedures on which we'll build a lasting engineering culture. This is an exciting opportunity to be a foundational member of a brand new project. While our stack includes React + Typescript and Django, we're open to a wide range of experience.
We're backed by a16z, Forerunner, BoxGroup, PrimeSet, and a formidable panel of angels.

  • 💚 An agile, motivated team based in San Francisco, with the challenging and fulfilling opportunity to help create a completely new kind of online shopping experience!


  • How You'll Succeed
  • Own: Advocate for the products and processes that you believe in, then help your team understand and implement them.
  • Prioritize: Seek out the context that will allow you to manage your time successfully, and quickly develop a keen sense for what's urgent vs what's important.
  • Communicate: Go beyond the top of your inbox, and use multiple channels of communication in concert to proactively drive alignment.
  • Adapt: Evolve with needs of the business, which (as with any startup) are evolving constantly.


  • Our Stack
  • Backend: Django + Graphene (graphQL)
  • Frontend: Typescript + React + Apollo (graphQL)
