Join a fintech engineering team building and scaling financial products and backend platform capabilities. You will help deliver reliable accounting and financial workflows that support how businesses manage money.

* Own accounting integration projects from problem definition and technical design through launch, iteration, and ongoing operation.

* Build reliable, scalable backend services for accounting and financial workflows, and support expansion into adjacent product areas.

* Translate ambiguous product and business problems into simple, durable technical solutions.

* Learn customers' accounting and financial operations needs and apply that context to product and engineering decisions.

* Partner with Product, Design, Operations, Compliance, and external providers on complex initiatives.

* Balance fast delivery with the reliability required for financial workflows and money movement.

* Raise engineering quality through clear communication, system design, code quality, and mentorship.

* 5 to 10 or more years of experience building production backend systems, APIs, services, or distributed systems.

* Strong product judgment, customer curiosity, and comfort working through ambiguity in fast-paced, high-growth environments.

* Experience collaborating across technical and non-technical teams, including external partners.

* Background in fintech, accounting, payroll, payments, banking, compliance-heavy products, or complex third-party integrations is valuable.

* Experience with Python, Go, GraphQL, PostgreSQL, Docker, Kubernetes, or GCP is helpful, but an exact match is not required.

* End-to-end project ownership is valuable, as is deep expertise in complex systems.
