Solutions Engineer, Financial Audit

About Us

Fieldguide is establishing a new state of trust for global commerce and capital markets by automating and streamlining the work of assurance and audit practitioners, specifically in cybersecurity, privacy, and financial audits. Put simply, we build software for the people who enable trust between businesses.

We’re based in San Francisco, CA, but built as a remote-first company that enables you to do your best work from anywhere. We’re backed by top investors, including Growth Equity at Goldman Sachs Alternatives, Bessemer Venture Partners, 8VC, Floodgate, Y Combinator, DNX Ventures, Global Founders Capital, Justin Kan, Elad Gil, and more.

We value diversity—in backgrounds and experiences. We need people from all backgrounds and walks of life to help build the future of audit and advisory. Fieldguide’s team is inclusive, driven, humble, and supportive. We are deliberate and self-reflective about the kind of team and culture we are building, seeking teammates who are not only strong in their own aptitudes, but who also care deeply about supporting each other’s growth.

As an early-stage startup employee, you’ll have the opportunity to help build the future of business trust. We make audit practitioners’ lives easier by consolidating up to 50% of their work and improving work-life balance. If you share our values and enthusiasm for building a great culture and product, you’ll find a home at Fieldguide.
