Loyalty platform that routes purchase rewards to nonprofits
Beam embeds charitable giving into e-commerce checkout, letting customers direct ~1% of their purchase value to nonprofits at no extra cost. The tech stack (Node.js, TypeScript, React, PostgreSQL, Snowflake, Kubernetes, Apache Airflow) reflects a data-intensive operation: they're tracking transaction flows, attribution, and nonprofit impact metrics across a brand network. Hiring is lean and senior-heavy—5 senior roles against only 4 engineers—suggesting a founder-led or outsourced engineering model while the company scales sales and people infrastructure in parallel.
