Job Description

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer who doesn’t just write code — but owns problems end-to-end, ships high-impact features, and thrives in an environment where autonomy and accountability go hand in hand. If you’re someone who gets things done, enjoys solving hard problems across the stack, and wants to help build a product and business from the ground up, we’d love to talk.

• Own features end-to-end: design, build, test, ship, monitor, and iterate.
• Champion reliability: write strong tests, build alerts and monitors, and jump into on-call when needed — you’ll directly help keep things running for our customers.
• Work cross-functionally: partner with product, business, data engineering, and data science to deliver features that matter.
• Dig into data: write SQL and use our logging tools to understand what’s happening in production and uncover insights.

What you’ll need to succeed:

• 8+ years in software engineering, with deep TypeScript and Node.js experience.
• Hands-on experience with React and React Native.
• A track record of independently delivering complex features from idea to production.
• Solid SQL skills; Python experience a plus.
• Bonus: background in finance or regulated industries.
• Most importantly: a builder’s mindset — you’re scrappy, resourceful, and energized by shipping things that make a difference.

Why Join Us:

• Generous paid time off
• Competitive medical, dental & vision coverage
• 401K with company match for US
• Company-paid life insurance
• Company-paid short-term and long-term disability
