Senior Software Engineer - Backend & Agent Platform

About Truewind

Truewind (YC W23) is modernizing the financial back office — combining intelligent software with concierge service to automate bookkeeping, close, and financial reporting for startups and accounting firms. Our product is an AI agent that turns messy financial inputs into reviewed, posted accounting work. We're a small team putting real AI-native workflows in front of real accounting teams every day.

The role

We're hiring a senior backend engineer to help build and strengthen the platform behind our AI agent — the systems that run agent work reliably and connect it to customers' accounting tools. This is a backend- and systems-leaning role for someone who cares about building dependable infrastructure for an AI-native product, and who's energized by reliability and correctness, not just shipping screens.

You'll join a small, high-ownership team where engineering sits close to the product. You'll have room to go deep, take real ownership over time, and shape how the platform evolves.

Where you'll have impact

We're intentionally not asking one person to carry everything. Depending on your strengths and interests, you'll grow into one or more of these areas over time, with a teammate alongside you:

• Backend services and APIs that power the product.
• Reliability and operations — helping our systems stay healthy and fast as we scale.
• Cloud infrastructure on AWS.
• Integrations with accounting platforms, where correctness really matters.

We work two-deep on important systems — you'll always have a partner, and we value people who document well and share what they know.

You might be a great fit if you

• Have built and run backend services in production and care about keeping them reliable.
