Our take

Why Maybern

A rare fully remote founding-FDE seat at a Series B fund-ops company — pay is fair, but the draw is owning a new function in an under-automated corner of finance.

A good fit if you're…

  • Remote US engineers who want founding scope
  • Builders with quant, modeling or fintech backgrounds
  • Candidates curious about private equity and fund operations

What they do

Maybern builds an operating system for private funds — waterfall calculations, fee and carry modeling, and reporting that fund managers typically run in spreadsheets. It raised a $50M Series B led by Battery Ventures in late 2025 and says it supports more than $80B in AUM across PE, real estate and credit managers.

What “forward deployed” means here

The first FDEs build custom applications, forecasting and scenario models, and workflow automation on top of the platform for specific fund customers, owning engagements from discovery to deployment. It's genuine forward-deployed work, with a quant-modeling tilt most FDE seats lack.

Comp & leveling

$180K–$270K for a remote role is solidly competitive for a Series B, below frontier-lab FDE pay but without Bay Area cost of living. Founding-function equity is the lever to negotiate.

Growth signals

Reported 4.6x year-over-year growth and a board seat for Guidewire co-founder Marcus Ryu point to vertical-SaaS ambition. The risk is a niche buyer base; the upside is that fund-ops is notoriously manual and FDE-built tools can become product.
