This role is perfect for engineers who thrive in fast-moving environments, want to help define new products or experiments, and are passionate about helping Chime grow faster and smarter.

In this role, you can expect to

• Rapidly prototype and launch A/B tests, iterating on ideas that improve activation, conversion, and engagement
• Analyze the performance of features post-launch to inform future iterations and growth strategies

• Contribute to a culture of technical excellence through mentorship, code reviews, and driving best practices

To thrive in this role, you have

• 2+ years of experience building scalable software in production environments
• Proven experience with both a modern front-end framework (React or comparable) and a server-side framework (Ruby on Rails, Go, or comparable)
• Experience designing APIs and working with transactional databases and caching, plus client-side state, performance, and component-driven UI
• Comfort owning a feature across the full stack, and eagerness to learn the parts you haven't touched yet
• A product mindset with a strong bias toward experimentation, iteration, and measuring impact
• Exposure to large-scale architecture patterns and an appreciation for clean, maintainable code
