About Juniper Square
Our mission at Juniper Square is to unlock the full potential of private markets.

If you are driven by the desire to improve the world through technology by optimizing market functions, and wish to contribute to a values-driven organization, we encourage you to connect with us.
Juniper Square embraces diverse work arrangements, offering options from fully remote to full-time in-office experiences. We heavily invest in digital-first operations, which enables our teams to collaborate effectively across 27 U.S. states, 2 Canadian Provinces, India, Luxembourg, and England. For those who prefer an office setting, we maintain physical offices in San Francisco, New York City, Mumbai, and Bangalore.
