Leading agencies and businesses worldwide rely on TRM to make the world safer and more secure. At TRM, writing code can literally save lives. Our platform helps governments, financial institutions, and crypto companies detect and prevent financial crime—from terrorist financing to human trafficking. The Full‑Stack Product Engineering team builds core products and services that make this possible, from customer‑facing applications to foundational APIs and internal tools. We’re looking for an early‑career engineer who’s eager to ship real‑world features and contribute directly to this mission.

Impact You’ll Have Here

• Learn how to design and build APIs and services with scalability, performance, and maintainability in mind.
• Write clean, tested, and well‑documented code that delivers value to TRM’s customers and stakeholders.
• Continuously improve through feedback, pair programming, code reviews, and retros—bringing curiosity and coachability to every interaction.

What We’re Looking For

• A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science or a closely related technical field (completed by Summer 2026).
• 1–2 software engineering internships, or equivalent experience through academic or personal projects.
• Familiarity with JavaScript/TypeScript and an interest in full‑stack development (React, Node.js, Postgres).
• An eagerness to learn: you take feedback well and show curiosity about unfamiliar systems or tools.
• Strong communication skills—you keep your team updated, ask questions early, and can explain your thinking clearly.
• Demonstrated initiative—whether through a side project, internship, or campus involvement, you’ve shown you can take ownership and see something through.
• Excitement for TRM’s mission to build a safer financial system for billions of people.
