About the role
Backend software engineer focused on building production-grade fintech systems, with opportunities to lead design, contribute to platform work, and leverage AI tools across the stack.
Responsibilities
- Own critical financial systems end-to-end: from transaction authorization and ledger accounting, to credit decisioning, to rewards engines and payment processing.
- Build net-new products, not just maintain existing ones: design and ship systems that don’t exist yet alongside improving existing ones.
- Contribute to foundational platform work: invest in shared services, API infrastructure, and developer tooling to make the engineering team faster and more reliable.
- Leverage AI across the stack: prototype, test, and production code with AI tools.
- Work across a wide cross-functional surface: product, design, infrastructure, compliance, solutions engineering, and brand partners.
- Move fast with real responsibility: a growing company where individuals drive impact.
Qualifications
- 3+ years of experience building production backend systems (fintech experience a plus)
- You've built services that handle real money, real users, or real-time decisions: care about getting the details right
- Proficiency in Go (primary backend language), or a similar language with willingness to ramp quickly
- Experience using AI tools (code assistants, MCP servers, agentic workflows) to accelerate development, or enthusiasm to adopt them
- Experience ensuring data consistency and transactional integrity across distributed systems
- Strong with relational databases: schema design, migrations, and query performance tuning
- Comfortable designing API contracts consumed by both internal frontends and external partners
- Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS), CI/CD pipelines, and deployment tooling
- Participated in on-call rotations and incident response, including root cause analysis
- Clear communication and collaboration across product, design, and engineering teams
- Thrives in ambiguous environments and makes pragmatic tradeoffs to keep shipping
