About the role
About TrueBiz
TrueBiz is a YC-backed merchant risk intelligence platform. We deliver 250+ risk signals on any business in under 30 seconds via API.
Our customers include some of the largest payment networks, fintechs, banks, and merchant services companies in the world. We help risk and underwriting teams understand who a merchant is, what they do, and whether their online presence suggests fraud, compliance, or business model risk.
We are a lean, profitable team building critical infrastructure for the payments ecosystem.
We use AI heavily, both inside the product and in how we build it. Our product uses LLMs as part of broader Python-driven workflows for analyzing businesses, websites, online presence, and risk signals. Our engineering team uses AI-assisted development tools aggressively to write, review, debug, refactor, and reason about code. We do not think of ourselves as an “AI wrapper” company, but we do expect engineers to have embraced modern AI tools and to use them with strong production judgment.
Why This Role Exists
We’re looking for a senior engineer to support our scale. You’ll strengthen the infrastructure behind a live, revenue-generating product as we support larger customers, higher usage, and more demanding enterprise requirements: AWS, ECS/Fargate, CloudFormation, CI/CD, release management, observability, and reliability.
But this isn’t a pure platform role. You’ll also ship product features, build APIs, improve backend workflows, and work across the full stack. We need pragmatic builders who can improve systems while continuing to ship.
This is a core team role. The work may skew more toward backend/platform, product engineering, or applied AI systems depending on your strengths, but we are looking for someone who can operate broadly and take ownership across the system.
What You'll Do
- Own and evolve our AWS infrastructure: ECS/Fargate, RDS, ElastiCache, S3
