About the Role
This is a full-stack product engineering role at a small, fast-moving fintech company building consumer tools for cash advances, paycheck optimization, and credit building. You'll work closely with product, engineering, and business leaders to ship high-impact features that directly improve users' financial wellbeing. The team is lean, the ownership is real, and the work touches production every day.
What You'll Do
-
Build product features end-to-end, including domain models, business logic, and API integrations.
-
Drive deployment and iteration through data-driven, incremental releases toward ambitious milestones.
-
Use SQL and analytics tools to evaluate product and system performance against robust data pipelines.
-
Debug complex state machines in an event-driven, pub/sub backend to ensure a seamless user experience.
-
Ship to production daily via a rapid CI/CD process, owning implementations end-to-end and responding to incidents as needed.
What We're Looking For
-
3+ years building backend features end-to-end for production systems.
-
Proficiency designing and consuming RESTful APIs with authentication, authorization patterns, and rate limiting.
-
Experience with event-driven architectures and message queues such as Kafka or Pub/Sub.
-
Experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL or MySQL), including data modeling and query optimization.
-
Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, version control, automated testing, and code review processes.
-
Experience writing SQL and using analytics tools to assess system and product performance.
-
Experience building consumer-facing products (not exclusively B2B).
-
Experience debugging complex state machines in event-driven systems.
-
Strong computer science fundamentals: algorithms, data structures, and system design.
-
Meaningful early-stage startup experience, rather than exclusively large-company or late-stage backgrounds.
-
Familiarity with Go (golang) deployed on GCP is a strong plus.
