Trayd

Implementations Analyst New York, NY (in-person, SoHo) $85,000 to $100,000 Base Salary + Meaningful Equity Trayd, in one sentence Trayd is building the operating system for commercial construction: payroll, compliance, and back office workflows that actually work in the real world. Construction is one of the largest industries in North America, yet much of the software that runs it is outdated, manual, and fragile. Companies spend hours every week reconciling payroll, tracking job costs, and managing compliance across disconnected systems. The consequences of mistakes are real. Workers do not get paid correctly. Businesses lose time and money. Stress compounds. We are changing that. We help subcontractors run payroll, manage workers, and operate their businesses with confidence. That means onboarding is not a checkbox process. It is a critical moment where customers trust us with their data, their workflows, and their business operations. We are in the next phase of growth, with accelerating customer demand and a platform that runs real payroll every week, and we are scaling the team to match it. Trayd is based in New York and backed by Y Combinator. The role We are hiring an implementation analyst to help launch new customers onto Trayd. This is a highly customer-facing, data-heavy role where you will own onboarding projects from start to finish. You will work directly with construction companies to understand how they run payroll today, migrate their data into Trayd, and ensure they launch successfully. Every customer is different. Every migration is a puzzle. You will be solving real operational problems that impact whether a business can run payroll correctly. This role sits at the intersection of customer success, data, and operations, and is one of the fastest ways to learn how companies actually run. What you will do Serve as the primary point of contact for customers during onboarding, building trust and guiding them through the transition to Trayd. Work directly with payroll managers, finance leaders, and business owners to understand how their company operates today. Lead customers through complex data migrations, ensuring their payroll, workforce, and historical data move accurately into Trayd. Diagnose and solve messy real-world problems, from data inconsistencies to workflow gaps, in partnership with engineering and product. Manage timelines and expectations so customers launch successfully and confidently. Support customers through their first live payroll runs, one of the most critical moments in the onboarding journey. Identify patterns across implementations and help improve how we onboard customers as the company scales. Why this role is different Direct customer impact. You will see the results of your work immediately. High ownership early. You own launches, not just tasks. Real problem solving. No two implementations are the same. Strong learning curve. Data, product, operations, and customer strategy all in one role. Career growth. This role is a path toward senior implementation, product, or leadership positions. In-person team. We work together in Soho five days a week because speed and collaboration matter. Who you are You have 1 to 3 years of experience in consulting, startups, operations, analytics, or similar roles. You are comfortable working with data and have strong Excel skills. You are organized and detail-oriented with strong follow-through. You communicate clearly and are comfortable interacting with customers and internal teams. You have a high ownership mindset and take responsibility for outcomes.

Product Operations Associate New York, NY (in-person, SoHo) $85,000 to $95,000 Base Salary + Meaningful Equity Trayd, in one sentence Trayd is building the operating system for commercial construction: payroll, compliance, and back office workflows that actually work in the real world. Construction is one of the biggest industries in North America, and it still runs on a messy mix of spreadsheets, legacy payroll providers, and manual processes that break the moment things get even slightly complex. The people doing the work are the hardest working people in the country, and the companies running crews are forced to spend hours every week fighting systems that were never built for them. We’re changing that. Trayd started with a simple promise: construction workers should be able to access the money they already earned faster, and subcontractors should be able to run payroll without chaos. Today, we’re building deeper infrastructure across payroll, union rules, job costing, and accounting workflows so our customers can run their businesses with confidence. We’re in the next phase of growth, with accelerating customer demand and a platform that runs real payroll every week, and we’re scaling engineering to match it.

Trayd is based in New York and backed by Y Combinator. The role We’re hiring a senior software engineer to help build the core systems that power Trayd.

You’ll design, build, ship, and maintain real systems that move real money, under real compliance constraints, for customers who depend on us every week. Payroll is one of the only product categories where 99% accuracy is an F. The systems have to be built for correctness, traceability, and edge cases from day one. You’ll work on a small, high-output team where decisions are made quickly, quality matters, and your work will show up in production constantly. What you’ll do Own major projects end-to-end: scoping, technical design, implementation, testing, and release Build full-stack features across the frontend, backend, and data layers in a production SaaS environment Design and evolve systems for payroll, deductions, benefits, compliance, and accounting workflows where correctness matters Model and migrate relational data in Postgres for complex real-world financial workflows Make strong architectural tradeoffs in ambiguous, fast-moving product environments Debug production issues, improve reliability, and drive problems through to resolution Collaborate closely with product and operations to translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions Work directly with customers and internal stakeholders to understand how construction companies actually operate Contribute as a senior engineer through code reviews, design discussions, and raising the quality bar across the team Example problems you might work on Building workflows that handle union pay rules, deductions, and benefits correctly across job types and locations Designing systems that make payroll auditable and explainable, not just “it worked somehow” Making accounting exports and job-costing data reliable enough that controllers trust them Improving performance and correctness in a system that processes large amounts of payroll data under deadlines Creating tooling and guardrails that prevent edge cases from becoming customer emergencies Why Trayd This is real infrastructure. Payroll and compliance are high-stakes. The work is technical, regulated, and unforgiving in the best way You will have real ownership. You won’t be one engineer on a giant team shipping tiny changes. You will own systems that matter We’re winning in a hard market.
