About Ratio

Ratio is a new kind of financing and trading platform, which is reinventing the way that subscription businesses leverage capital to fuel growth, hiring and expansion. Ratio allows the core asset of any subscription company, their customer contracts, to be traded for upfront cash. For subscription companies this allows them to optimize their capital structure using Ratio without dilution or debt, while still utilizing other forms of capital to grow their business. We are disrupting venture financing and creating a new trillion dollar asset class for investors.

As a location agnostic team we are building a team of A+ players who are motivated by the desire to build exceptional products and culture. Ratio is currently financing SaaS companies out of a $500 Million facility with the backing of some largest asset managers and top tier VCs who were early investors in companies like DoorDash, AppLovin, Forge Global.

Ratio is founded by two experienced entrepreneurs, Ashish Srimal and Mason Blake, who have both founded and exited their past companies. Their backgrounds bring a wealth of knowledge and experience after having spent more than 20 years in Silicon Valley.

We are an early stage startup in stealth mode looking for founding team members to make a massive impact and contribute significantly to the foundations of our company.

The Role

We’ll be facing countless decisions as we build out the foundations for everything from the database systems, containers, auto-scaling, CI/CD, feature flags and much more. This is a unique chance to grow your skill set with a ground zero greenfield environment. Come join us in this highly impactful role!
