We're hiring (slowly & deliberately)

Help us build practical AI for finance.

Bank2Books is a small UK team rebuilding bookkeeping from the ground up. We ship in the open, with users in the room, and we'd love your help.

What we value

Six small things that compound into a culture

No theatrics, no jargon — these are the actual heuristics we use when we hire and when we ship.

01

Users in the room

Every release is shaped by real bookkeepers and businesses. We talk to them weekly.

02

Pragmatic AI

We use AI where it earns its keep. The rest is well-built, boring, dependable software.

03

Clarity over cleverness

Plain English, simple UIs, and code anyone on the team can pick up tomorrow.

04

Ownership by default

Whoever ships the change owns it through to the user feedback. No silos, no handoffs.

05

Small team, big leverage

We stay small on purpose. Each hire matters, and each hire compounds.

06

Boring is a feature

Bookkeeping has to be right. We pick predictable tools, write tests, and ship deliberately.

How we work

A small, focused team that ships what users actually need

Remote-first · UK based

Async by default, with a few high-bandwidth moments.

Most of our day is heads-down work in your own timezone. We sync briefly each week to align, unblock, and demo — then back to building. No status-update meetings.

Standup Async, daily
Live sync ~2 hrs / week
Deep-work blocks Protected
Ship weekly

Small, observable changes — every week.

We ship to production every week, mostly in small increments. Nothing sits in a branch for a month. Every change is reviewed by another human, with tests where they help.

Avg. PR size < 400 LOC
CI pipeline ~5 min
Releases / week 5–10
User-led roadmap

The roadmap is shaped by who's using the product.

We don't ship features because they sound good. Every meaningful change starts from a real user problem we've heard repeated — and ends with that user trying it and telling us if it landed.

User calls / week 5–8
Roadmap horizon ~6 weeks
Public changelog Yes
Hiring process

Four short steps. About two weeks end-to-end.

Designed to respect your time and tell us something real about how we'd work together.

1

Intro chat · ~30 min

A relaxed conversation about your background, what you'd want to work on, and what we're building. Two-way — your questions matter.

2

Practical exercise · async

A short, realistic task in your own time — usually a couple of hours. We pay for substantial work and never use it in production.

3

Working session · ~90 min

A live session with two of us. We'll dig into your exercise, pair on a small extension, and talk through trade-offs.

4

Founder chat & offer

A direct conversation with a founder, references both ways, and (if it's a fit) a written offer within 48 hours.
