Castle is the finance app that saves homeowners time and money.
  • Homeowners use Castle to pay for and track all of their home expenses in one place. Castle then monitors those transactions for opportunities to save. The average Castle customer saves more than $10,000 on their home.

  • Housing affordability is a major problem in the U.S. At Castle, we believe that homeowners deserve better data when it comes to managing their biggest asset. We’re building payments infrastructure for the largest consumer category in the U.S. — to help people automate, consolidate, and reduce their spend.

  • Developing and maintaining REST APIs using Django.

  • Managing and optimizing our cloud infrastructure.

  • Building mission-critical features including:

    • Bill payment system for processing ACH and check payments;
