About Ember

Join us in creating the new age of accounting.

We make business easier for business owners. By automating the tax and accounting admin burden, we give power back to those running the show without any need for an old-school, overpriced accountant, making managing a business simpler, smarter and way cheaper.

Ember was born of frustration. When CEO Aaron first opened up his IT consultancy, it was a constant uphill battle to stay on top of his admin without any financial training, forcing him to choose between forking out for an overpriced accountant, or wasting countless hours trying to do it himself.

The worst part? It was painfully obvious to Aaron that most of what he was doing could be automated.

Then Aaron met Dan, a chartered accountant who was also fed up with the available "best-in-class" accounting & tax systems. From there, the pair hatched a plan to liberate business owners from the shackles of business admin, giving them the time and headspace they need to focus on what matters.

A full stack software engineer and designer by trade, Aaron has built a range of compelling web and mobile solutions for both small startups and large corporations across the globe, including the likes of Google, Red Bull and Unilever.

Dan is a Deloitte-trained, fully qualified Chartered Accountant with experience in the finance software space. It was during his tenure managing a finance system in the UK that he grew dissatisfied with the lack of synergy and automation in the space, compelling him to co-found Ember.

Tasked with identifying customer problems and finding the right solutions for them, Karina joins the team as Ember’s resident problem solver. When not optimising the Ember app, you can find her out for a jog, dragon boat racing or making her own clothes (we’re all very impressed).

Undeniably a coding powerhouse, Sergejs joined the Ember team as Tech Lead in September 2021 before moving up to Head of Engineering in April 2022. Based in the heart of Edinburgh, when not in front of a screen you can find Sergejs hiking Arthur’s Seat or practicing yoga.

A full stack software engineer with a background in accounting, Pawel brings a wealth of tax and technical knowledge to the team. Starting out as an accountant after moving to the UK in 2010, Pawel's curiosity for code was piqued while developing spreadsheet applications for his fellow accountants, eventually compelling him to train as a software engineer. When not in front of a screen, you can find him behind the decks of a DJ booth.

Having worked as a photographer, postwoman, bartender and events coordinator, Tam retrained as a software developer with Code Nation back in 2020. Since then, Tam has worked as a developer for CN and Jisc before becoming a part of the Ember team in December 2021.
