Headquarters:
We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to build and scale production-grade AI-powered financial products. This is a hands-on engineering role focused on backend platform development, AI integration, and distributed systems. The ideal candidate has strong experience with TypeScript, Python, cloud-native architectures, and applying LLMs in real-world production environments.

- Own technical decisions across system architecture, APIs, data models, performance, security, and reliability.
- Build backend applications using TypeScript and Python, while contributing to frontend functionality with JavaScript when needed.
- Integrate LLMs and agentic AI capabilities into production software.
- Design and implement distributed, cloud-native systems with strong observability and operational excellence.
- Define engineering best practices around code quality, testing, deployment, and incident response.
- Collaborate closely with product, design, data, and engineering leadership to deliver customer-facing features.
- Utilize modern AI development tools to improve engineering productivity and software quality.
Required Experience
- 5+ years of professional software engineering experience building production-grade applications.
- Strong proficiency in TypeScript and/or Python.
- Experience designing scalable backend systems, APIs, and distributed architectures.
- Strong knowledge of cloud platforms such as AWS or GCP.
- Hands-on experience integrating Large Language Models (LLMs) into production applications.
- Experience with prompt engineering and applying AI to solve real business problems.
- Strong understanding of software architecture, scalability, performance optimization, reliability, and security.
- Experience working in fast-paced product environments with significant technical ownership.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related discipline.
Preferred Experience
- Conversational AI, Agentic AI, NLP, or dialogue systems.
- Fintech, banking, or regulated industry experience.
- Startup experience building products from early stages through scale.
- Experience with observability, CI/CD, Kubernetes, Docker, and modern DevOps practices.
- Familiarity with AI developer tools such as Cursor or Claude Code.
- Engagement Highlights
- Build production AI systems used by millions of banking customers.
- Work directly with executive engineering leadership on high-impact technical initiatives.
- Hands-on engineering role with ownership across architecture, implementation, and delivery.
- Opportunity to combine backend engineering expertise with practical LLM and agentic AI development.
- Join a profitable, AI-first company building the next generation of intelligent financial services.
