Job Description
We’re hiring a Junior Software Engineer for our growing Engineering team. You’ll work closely with a senior engineer or mentor as you ramp up, taking on increasing ownership of features as you build context — collaborating with product, design, and other engineers along the way.
Day-to-Day Responsibilities
1. Ship Product That Matters
- Build and deliver features for backend, web, or mobile that improve user financial wellbeing, with support from senior engineers on scoping and review.
- Take ownership of well-defined pieces of a feature — implementation, testing, and monitoring — with guidance on discovery and production concerns as you grow into them.
- Work on a high-impact, category-defining product with genuine market traction.
2. Grow Across the Stack
- Contribute to frontend (React, React Native, Tailwind, shadcn/ui) and/or backend (NestJS, Hono, Drizzle ORM) depending on your strengths and interests, with room to expand over time.
- Write clean, maintainable, type-safe TypeScript code, with feedback from experienced teammates via code review.
- Get hands-on exposure to our AWS-based infrastructure (SST/Pulumi, PostgreSQL on Neon, GitHub Actions) alongside engineers who own it.
3. Learn and Contribute to Engineering Culture
- Participate actively in code reviews and architectural discussions — as a learner first, contributor as you gain footing.
- Absorb and start applying team engineering standards and best practices.
- Build security-conscious habits when working with sensitive financial data, with guidance from senior engineers on what matters most.
4. Work With a Modern Stack
- Monorepo with pnpm workspaces and Turborepo.
- Frontend: React, React Native, TypeScript, Vite, Tailwind, shadcn/ui.
- Backend: NestJS, Drizzle ORM, Hono, vitest, bun.
- Infrastructure: SST/Pulumi on AWS, GitHub Actions, PostgreSQL on Neon.
- Collaboration tools: Linear, Slack, Notion, GitHub, Sentry, Cursor, Claude Code, CodeRabbit.
- Engineering principles: reusable primitives, strict type safety, clean code, and cooldown weeks.
About You
- Master’s degree in Computer Science.
- Comfortable with AI-assisted coding tools and eager to use them well.
- A first experience with software engineering (internship, thesis project, or first job) — you don’t need years of production experience.
- Proficient in, or quick to pick up, TypeScript; excited to work across the stack over time.
- Some experience with React, React Native, Node.js, or similar frameworks.
- Basic familiarity with relational databases (PostgreSQL); cloud infrastructure exposure is a bonus, not a requirement.
- Care about writing clean, simple code and are eager to build good habits around code quality.
- Curious and thoughtful about security, especially with sensitive financial data — we’ll help you build the instincts.
- Strong communicator who’s comfortable in a collaborative, fast-paced, English-speaking team, and not afraid to ask questions.
- Bonus: exposure to fintech, financial services, infrastructure as code, open-source, or side projects at any scale.
