Senior Software Engineer

About PushPress

PushPress is building the Intelligent Industry Ledger for boutique fitness.

We’re transforming how boutique gyms operate — and how the entire $100B fitness industry connects, transacts, and grows. Trusted by 5,000+ gyms and 500,000+ members, PushPress processes over $500M annually and is backed by Altos Ventures and Mucker Capital.

We're evolving from a traditional business system of record into an AI-powered Industry Ledger — an intelligent infrastructure layer that brings order to a highly fragmented boutique fitness industry. By unifying disconnected operators, workflows, and data into a single platform, we’re enabling faster decisions, new business models, cross-gym collaboration, and network effects that increase the value of every studio in our client base.

The fitness industry is highly fragmented, with over 100 sub-verticals — from CrossFit and yoga to climbing and cycling — each with unique needs. Roughly 85% of locations are small, independently owned gyms that fall into a gap: too small for enterprise platforms, too diverse for niche solutions. It’s a classic Goldilocks problem — and we’re perfectly positioned in the middle. 

PushPress was born from the boutique fitness world, and our deep empathy for these owners, combined with years of hard-earned trust, gives us an unfair advantage. We believe these operators are critical to the future of global health — and we’re building the tools, infrastructure, and network to help them thrive.

We’re a global team of builders, operators, and fitness fanatics on a mission to level the playing field for fitness entrepreneurs. If you're ready to help reshape an industry — let’s talk.
