We’re looking for a foundational Full-Stack Engineer who thrives in ambiguity, enjoys building complex distributed systems, and wants to define foundational architecture in a fast-growing early-stage startup. You’ll lead the design and implementation of APIs, services, and infrastructure that underpin our platform. You’ll also help drive engineering strategy, product execution, and cultural foundations alongside leadership.
Design and build scalable, secure backend services and APIs from scratch.
Make architectural decisions that optimize for speed, data integrity, and long-term maintainability.
Collaborate closely with product, design, and data teams to develop performant systems that power key customer workflows.

Experience in payments, tax, accounting, or regulatory tech.
