Senior Software Engineer (Remote)

Senior Software Engineer (React Native, Node.js) – Remote, US

About alooola

alooola is a wealth management app for medical professionals. Investments, retirement planning, spending, insurance, all in one place, backed by real advisory expertise.

We're the tech arm of Glen Eagle, a 30-year-old advisory firm with over $1B in assets under management. Privately held, profitable, no outside investors. We're taking what we know about serving doctors and building a digital-first experience around it. Currently at $30M AUM and growing.

You'll be our second engineer, working directly with the VP of Engineering, who codes daily.

The Role

We have an MVP in market and are focused on building out the features that drive real growth. 

In your first 90 days, you'll likely work on:

• Joint accounts integration
• Overhauling spending UX
• Launching a referral system
• Enabling mutual fund capabilities

Day-to-day, you'll:

• Own features end-to-end: requirements, UX decisions, implementation, testing, shipping
• Work across the stack: React Native/TypeScript on mobile, Node.js/Express/Postgres on the backend
• Use AI tools (Claude, GPT, etc.) as part of your normal workflow
• Stay in touch throughout the day via Slack
• Debug, fix, monitor, support

Who This Is For

You have 5+ years of experience building production software. You learned the fundamentals before AI tools existed, which means you actually understand what you're prompting for.

Technically, you're strong in:

• React Native (navigation, state management, performance, debugging)
• Node.js (data modeling, migrations, API design)
• Using AI tools daily as a force multiplier, not a crutch

As a person, you:

• Thrive with autonomy and minimal direction
• Bias toward action over lengthy planning
• Care about UX and think through problems like it's your own product
• Communicate often and informally
• Are proactive, detailed, and persistent

Nice-to-Haves

• Fintech or wealth management experience
• Mobile testing frameworks (Detox, etc.)
• Infrastructure experience (AWS, Fastlane, GitHub Actions)
• Comfort working in regulated industries

How We Work

• Fully remote, W-2, US-based. Flexible hours with some overlap (roughly 10am-4pm ET).
• Very few meetings. We protect your time so you can actually build things.
• Constant, informal communication. We share what we're working on, flag blockers early, and keep each other in the loop. No formality, high trust.
• Fast releases. Multiple deploys per day through automated pipelines.
• Mature codebase. Strong patterns, linting, types, PR checks, automated deployments, monitoring.

Compensation & Benefits

Who Should Apply

This role is for you if you're an engineer who thinks like a designer and a product owner. You don't want to just receive tickets - you want to shape requirements, make design calls, architect the solution, build the features, and ship them yourself. You're proactive, detailed, own the outcome, and follow through. 

You've been using AI as a force multiplier, not just a time saver. You do your best work with full autonomy and you're looking for a small team of people who operate the same way. You want to build something that actually provides value to the people using it. And you're excited to be one of the earliest team members on a product that will likely grow from $30M to tens of billions over the next twenty years. If that's you, apply.

How to Apply

Send us your resume, LinkedIn, and GitHub. Also include short answers to the following:

1. Describe something you shipped using AI tools. Walk us through prompt to output to validation.
2. How would you approach adding support for joint accounts? Give us your first 5-10 steps.
