Senior Software Engineer, Fullstack

About the Role:

We're searching for an experienced and owner-minded Software Engineer to join Perpay and contribute to our culture of technical excellence. You will lead large-scale projects from start-to-finish, working across multiple teams (analytics, commerce, product, design, operations) while providing guidance to junior-level engineers. As we're a growing engineering team, you'll also have the opportunity to make an impact on our tech and our team. Given our people-first approach, your elevated level of contribution will strengthen our culture of inclusion, mentorship, and continuous learning.

As a leader of Perpay's engineering team, you'll collaborate with stakeholders ranging from entry-level contributors to senior-level executives. This opportunity is both unique and pivotal, as it offers the chance to provide leadership to a rapidly growing team. Our tech stack: Typescript, Javascript, React, Redux, Python, Django, Flask, Kubernetes, AWS, Docker and more

Our greatest strength is our people and we'd love for you to be one of them!

We highly value product-mindset, experience building production web apps for real users, and ability to coach and support junior engineers. An ownership mentality is a must, along with empathy and low ego. We're building to win, and are eager to find more team members to help us get there.

You Will:

• Be a leader our team looks to as a model of execution, accountability, and technical expertise
• Lead the implementation of large scale features for our customers and our internal finance, operations, and risk teams
• Develop technical requirements alongside our Product team
• Solve problems that span multiple interconnected systems with distributed architectures and scaling systems
• Execute on the full lifecycle of new features with fellow engineers
• Continue to improve how we build, test, and deliver software

What You'll Bring

• 5+ years of experience building web applications at scale in at least one modern language / framework (Python/Django, React/Typescript, Rails, etc.)
• 3+ years of experience leading technical teams and large, complex projects
• Experience working on consumer-facing products and demonstrating empathy for end-users
• Excellent at unblocking yourself and those around you, and an ability to design, analyze, and debug distributed systems and services.
• Significant experience with operating large scale services with AWS, Docker, and/or Kubernetes
• Excellent communication skills, including the ability to explain highly technical subject matter to a nontechnical audience

NYC-level total cash-comp (base $160k into the $200's, plus discretionary cash bonus and equity)
