About Us

We're building the payment rails for real estate. Backed by top investors (a16z, Sequoia Capital), we're generating real revenue and growing 30% month over month. Our team is small, senior, and experienced. We're looking for an engineer who wants to contribute meaningfully to a product that's reshaping an industry.

What you'll do

This role is full stack, and we're looking for someone who brings a frontend point of view to it. You'll own a domain rather than a backlog, and you'll be the person who sets the bar on the interface: interaction details and the states nobody specced. The surfaces you'll own are the ones where money moves: loan applications, hosted checkout, invoices and proposals, payment plans. Long multi-step flows, real money in the inputs, and failure states that have to be right the first time.

• Own the technical direction of a domain: the architecture, the data model, and the call on what gets built and what does not.
• Lead efforts that span quarters and cross functions. Take a business problem with no defined shape, work out what the right solution is, and drive it through to shipped.
• Set the engineering standards other people work to, and make them stick through review, tooling, and example rather than decree.
• Scope aggressively, and teach the team to do the same. Find the smallest version that solves the real problem, ship it, and iterate from what you learn.
• Work across our TypeScript / React / Node.js / Postgres / GCP stack.
• Multiply the people around you. Mentoring and teaching is a core part of the job here, across engineering and across functions, not a side activity you get to if there's time.
• Partner with product, design, and the founders on what belongs on the roadmap, not just how it gets built.
• Own the event-driven architecture behind money movement as we scale.
• Own our component library and design system, and the frontend architecture around it.

Why this role

• You own the problem, not the ticket: you'll be handed goals and constraints, not specs to implement.
• Real technical authority: on a team this size, a staff engineer's architectural calls are the ones that ship. There is no committee between you and the decision.
• AI is in the daily loop: get real leverage out of it, and still own what ships.
• Speed comes from scope: we work fast by cutting scope and prioritizing what actually matters, not by working longer hours. Small sharp releases over big-bang launches, craftsmanship where it counts.
• Fully remote, with coworking space reimbursement.

What we're looking for

• Substantial professional experience building and shipping software across both frontend and backend systems, including a track record of leading efforts that ran longer than a quarter and touched more than one team.
• Deep TypeScript and React. You set the patterns other people follow, and you can name the call you would make differently now.
• A record of raising the level of the engineers around you. You can point to specific people who got better because of how you worked with them.
• Real product judgment. You have killed features that should not have shipped, and cut scopes in half and been right.
• You scope your own work and other people's. You can turn a vague ask into a plan, break it into pieces that ship independently, and cut what isn't worth building.
• Care about UX craft: responsive layouts, accessibility, motion, latency.
• Strong in Node.js and Postgres. You have designed schemas and APIs that outlived their assumptions, and you know which ones did not.
• Collaborative, curious, and kind.

Bonus points

• Owned a design system or component library end to end.
• Fluent in Figma, or you prototype in code to explore a design.
• Exposure to financial, payments, or real-time systems.
• You've made AI tooling actually pay off in your own work, and can say concretely how.
• Prior startup or small-team experience, particularly as the person others brought hard problems to.
