United States
Up to $250,000/yr
June 18, 2026
Job description
About the Role
Our client is an early-stage, venture-backed fintech startup on a mission to expand access to financial tools for people historically excluded from the traditional credit system. They're growing fast, capital-efficient, and looking for a Backend Engineer to help build and scale the infrastructure powering their products.
This is a high-ownership role for someone who wants to own systems end-to-end, move fast, and lean heavily into AI-assisted development to multiply their output without sacrificing quality.
What You'll Do
- Own backend systems and infrastructure end-to-end, from design through deployment and scaling
- Build performant, reliable APIs and services that power core financial products
- Design and implement scalable architectures on AWS using Node (TypeScript)
- Make pragmatic tradeoffs between speed, reliability, scalability, and maintainability
- Ship production code frequently while maintaining high quality standards
- Help establish technical patterns and best practices for the engineering team
- Interface effectively with product engineers and other stakeholders
What We're Looking For
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related technical field
- 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a significant backend focus
- Experience building and scaling production systems with Node and AWS
- Proficiency with TypeScript strongly preferred
- Track record of delivering reliable, performant systems at scale
- Systems-oriented mindset with a deep focus on performance, reliability, and scalability
- Strong sense of ownership and accountability for system outcomes
- Comfortable thinking critically about architectural decisions and their long-term implications
- Thrives in ambiguity and can make sound technical decisions with incomplete information
- Self-starter who can work independently and drive projects to completion
- Embraces AI-assisted development to accelerate output while maintaining high code quality
What to Expect
- High ownership with minimal bureaucracy
- A fast-moving environment where roles and priorities evolve quickly
- An intense pace of execution and growth — this is not a 9-to-5, work-life-balance-optimized role
- Speed, learning, and impact as core values
Compensation
Salary range of 150-250k USD/year + equity, depending on location and seniority.
