Join a consumer fintech product and engineering team building tools that help people manage cash flow and build credit. You will own backend features from design through production, contributing to reliable and accessible financial products.

What We're Looking For

  • At least 3 years of experience building backend features end to end for production systems.
  • Proficiency designing and consuming REST APIs, including authentication, authorization, and rate limiting.
  • Experience with event-driven architectures and message queues such as Kafka or Pub/Sub, including debugging complex workflows.
  • Experience with PostgreSQL or MySQL, data modeling, query optimization, and SQL-based analytics.
  • Hands-on experience with CI/CD, version control, automated testing, and code review.
  • Experience building consumer-facing products and working in an early-stage startup or similarly high-velocity environment.
  • Strong computer science fundamentals and experience with distributed systems.
  • Go and GCP experience are useful.
