Software Engineer

the team : introduce new technologies and practices that improve how we build and operate together As a software engineer, you would expect to: Own features end to end — from discovery and design through development, launch, and iteration. Build across the stack: responsive, intuitive frontends and the secure, reliable backends and infrastructure behind them. Partner closely with product, design, and cross-functional teams to translate vision into shipped product. Prototype quickly to validate ideas, then harden the winners into scalable, maintainable solutions. Write clean, reliable, well-tested, well-documented code, and define best practices for development, testing, deployment, and monitoring. Proactively monitor, identify, and resolve production issues to keep the experience fast, secure, and reliable. Stay on top of where the industry is heading — and bring new tools, patterns, and ideas back to make our systems better. Work effectively with people across time zones and regions. To thrive in this role, you have: 5+ years of professional software development experience, with hands-on full-stack delivery — modern frontend frameworks plus API development and database design. A track record of shipping products to real end users and iterating based on their feedback. Proven experience with popular frameworks; React and Node.js (or comparable) a plus. Hands-on experience with modern cloud platforms, CI/CD, and monitoring tools. Fluency with AI-assisted development tools (e.g. Claude Code, Copilot, Cursor) — and enthusiasm for using them to ship faster and better. A stack-agnostic mindset and the versatility to quickly learn and adapt. Exceptional problem-solving skills, strong product instincts, and an entrepreneurial spirit. Deep empathy for customers and a fervent passion for elevating user experience. Strong interpersonal and communication skills to interact with a diverse team and stakeholders. Experience in — or strong desire to work in — early-stage startup environments. Prior fintech industry experience.
