We're a financial media company, a poor man's - lest we say everyday man's - Bloomberg competitor, and a financial product SaaS all forged together into a powerful trident that is attacking the high seas of Wall Street in a relentless pursuit of transparency.
And conquer we shall! We've grown 100% quarter over quarter all last year and another 100% just in the last month. Our team has surged to 30+ people and the waves of revenue washed together to form a rushing roar with just one of our products going from nothing to $200k/month in under a year.
Being a media company we find our way into all kinds of cool stuff. Our office is furnished with things like a $3000 high-end bed that was sent to us to review. We got to talk to and get pictures with Warren Buffett and Lloyd Blankfein (CEO of Goldman Sachs) when they came to Detroit.
But, you interject, finance is one of the toughest startup seas to sail upon! The old boys club runs an ironclad ship with no visible decks for boarding. Avast! We've built a battering ram of a business in just a few short years that has pummeled its way deep into the heart of Wall Street. Old Ironsides has warmed itself to Benzinga and once a taste the thirst cannot be quenched.
We've recently became Microsoft's premier finance partner alongside 3 other companies, all worth over a billion dollars and established for years. As of this Christmas we were installed by default on 500 million desktops and tablets via Windows 8 Finance. No download necessary. That's right mateys, we're in the source code.
And if you happen to trade or invest yourself you'll find us inside almost all of the major brokerages in the US.
So, where do you fit in this rigging, you swashbuckling scalawag? Well, our team is crazy ambitious, motivated, and experienced with shaking shit up. If you know your tech, and want on deck this is the place to do it. Your exact technical background and language of choice doesn't matter as much as your motivation and your ability to adapt quickly.
We are a young team and we're especially looking for sailors who've got some salt in their whiskers who can help us scale from millions to hundreds of millions.
Why be a ninja when you can be a pirate? This ship is forging a new course, send an email to careers@benzinga.com to board!

- knite 12y agoAdam, I think Benzinga and I may be each others' unicorns. Would love to chat directly before emailing the careers email. aris@pike.as
- blakeir 12y agoAn amazing company full of incredibly talented people.
- thesagan 12y agoHappy Saturday! Underutilized Drupal ninja here (Lansing, MI)! Saw you hiring post -- would Benzinga be interested in a "full stack/ish" Drupal dev for both remote AND on site work? Full time? Would there be opportunities to expand beyond Drupal, for example, exploring decoupling Drupal's back end with a desperate front end, etc? Cool thing is it seems Benzinga uses a lot of the same techniques I employ on my sites, and I think I can offer a lot of insight (and learn a lot as well) so hopefully they'll offer an invitation to interview. It'd be great working with a team again. Thanks for posting!
- bertdavid 12y agoHappy weekend! Full-stack, full time on-site and remote opportunities available. Email careers@benzinga.com to apply, but if you have any specific questions prior, feel free to reach out to me at bert@benzingapro.com. Look forward to chatting!
