Product Engineer (Software Engineer)

ABOUT THE ROLE

Join a fast-growing consumer fintech company — a subscription-based mobile platform helping everyday people manage money more easily through cash advances, paycheck optimization, and credit building. As a Product Engineer, you'll own features end-to-end, working closely with product, engineering, and business leaders to ship high-impact work that directly improves users' financial wellbeing.

This is an on-site role based in San Francisco, CA. Visa sponsorship is available.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Build product features end-to-end — domain models, business logic, and API integrations — that make the product work seamlessly for consumers.

• Drive deployment and iteration using a data-driven, incremental release approach toward ambitious milestones.

• Use SQL and analytics tools to regularly evaluate product and system performance against robust data pipelines and analytics infrastructure.

• Test and debug complex state machines in an event-driven, pub/sub-heavy backend to ensure a smooth user experience.

• Ship to production daily via a rapid CI/CD process, owning implementations end-to-end and responding to production incidents as needed.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Required (dealbreakers)

• 3+ years building backend features end-to-end for production systems.

• Proficiency designing and consuming RESTful APIs, including authentication/authorization patterns and rate limiting.

• Experience with event-driven architectures and message queues (Kafka, Pub/Sub, or similar).

Also required

• Experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL) — data modeling and query optimization.

• Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, version control, automated testing, and code review workflows.

• Experience writing SQL and using analytics tools to evaluate system and product performance.

• Demonstrated experience building consumer-facing products (not B2B only).

• Experience debugging complex state machines in event-driven systems.

• Strong computer science fundamentals — algorithms, data structures, system design.

• Excellent cross-functional communication skills; comfortable translating technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders.

Nice to have

• Experience with Go (Golang) deployed on GCP.

• Background at early-stage startups or high-growth environments.

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

• Salary: $120,000 – $200,000 USD annually, depending on experience.

• Visa sponsorship available.
