About the Role

A well-funded fintech startup is looking for a Product Engineer to help build financial products that optimize taxes, bridge paychecks, and build credit for consumers. You'll collaborate closely with product, engineering, and business leaders to ship high-impact features for a growing base of paying users — directly contributing to their financial wellbeing.

What You'll Do

Build product features end-to-end, including domain models, business logic, and API integrations.

Practice a data-driven, incremental approach to product development, shipping toward bold milestones.

Leverage robust data pipelines and analytics infrastructure — using SQL and other analysis tools — to evaluate product and system performance.

Test and debug complex state machines in an event-driven, pub/sub backend to ensure a seamless 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

Must-haves:

Experience with Go (Golang) deployed on GCP .

Direct consumer product experience — you've built for end consumers, not exclusively B2B.

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

Experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL/MySQL), including data modeling and query optimization.

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

Experience with event-driven architectures and message queues (e.g., Kafka, Pub/Sub) for scalable data pipelines.

Excellent cross-functional communication skills, with the ability to translate technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders.

Strong CS fundamentals.

Nice to have:

Background at a startup (preferred over Big Tech, though Big Tech experience is welcome).

Experience in fintech or financial services.

Compensation & Benefits

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

Visa sponsorship is available.

Location

This is an on-site role based in San Francisco, CA . Candidates should be prepared to work from the office.
