Senior Product Engineer

About the role

This is a hands-on role with real ownership with direct report to the CTO. You’ll be trusted to make decisions, not just execute.

Responsibilities

• Own and ship full-stack features end-to-end, from shaping early ideas to delivering production systems used by customers daily
• Build complex, data-dense interfaces, review queues, journal entry editors, reconciliation workflows, agent-state visualization, financial reports that don't break under real customer data
• Use AI tooling as your primary mode of writing code - Claude Code, Codex, or equivalent. AI does most of the implementation work under your direction; you own architecture, decomposition, verification, and review. Push back when AI gets it wrong, taste and judgment are why you're here, not raw typing speed.
• Architect backend services and APIs that handle sensitive financial data with high standards for performance, security, and data integrity
• Build clean, fast, and intuitive frontend experiences that translate complex financial concepts into simple user workflows
• Debug and resolve production issues across the stack; improve observability and system resilience over time
• Identify and address performance bottlenecks, scaling challenges, and areas of technical debt
• Collaborate closely with product and design to shape roadmap and deliver meaningful user outcomes
• Mentor other engineers and raise the bar through thoughtful feedback and hands-on support

Requirements

• 7+ years shipping production software, with at least 3 years in modern web stacks (React, TypeScript, Node, Python)
• Demonstrable AI-augmented engineering chops. You've actually shipped meaningful work with Claude Code / Cursor / Codex at the wheel, and can articulate what you delegate vs. what you own
• A track record of shipping at startup pace, with strong opinions about scope, sequence, and what's worth building
• Comfort working across the stack, including infrastructure and data layers
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or similar)
• Strong product instincts. You think about user impact, not just implementation
• Ability to operate independently and make sound decisions in a fast-moving, low-structure environment

Qualifications

• Clear communicator who collaborates well across disciplines

Skills

• Nice to have: Backend depth - Postgres, async workers, agent orchestration patterns, LLM API integration
• Prior FinTech, accounting, or expense management product experience
• Familiarity with third-party financial APIs (e.g., Stripe, Plaid, QBO)
• Exposure to security, compliance, or regulated environments (SOC 2, PCI, etc.)
• Design system contribution - you've shipped tokens and components, not just consumed them
• Open-source presence or public AI-engineering writing

Benefits

• Competitive compensation and equity
• Medical, Dental, Vision plans
• Generous PTO, plus company holidays
• Remote-first work environment (must be able to overlap with East Coast time zone)
• Quarterly team offsites (you will likely need to travel to various locations)
• Home office setup stipend
• High-impact role with real ownership over product and technical direction
