We’re fixing the retirement savings system - come join us. 


We’re on a mission to make saving for retirement easy. Our first product helps people digitally locate their old 401k accounts and consolidate them into a new account at any financial institution - without the paperwork, phone calls, and faxes of the past. In doing so, we’re automating the process by which $500 billion in 401k assets is transferred each year. We’re also making sure that the 15 million 401k account holders who change jobs annually don’t do the wrong thing with their assets - like cash them out, leave them behind, or pay excessive fees that erode their savings over time.


But that’s not where we’re stopping. We believe all Americans should retire with enough money for a life of dignity. Over time, we intend to eliminate all of the friction & fees embedded in the retirement savings system that stops them from doing so. 


We’ve raised $15mm from leading venture capital investors including Canapi Ventures, Greycroft, RRE, Bling Capital, and Walkabout Ventures.


The opportunity 


We’re looking for a Senior Full-Stack Engineer with experience building modern, microservice-based applications. You’ll work on core services that underpin our platform. You’ll partner with design, product, and business team members to take new features from idea to production. We’re an entrepreneurial team and we’re moving fast - you’ll have a big impact on our success. Your responsibilities will grow as we do.

What You'll Do

  • Build new product features using modern technologies and Agile processes. 
  • Expand our modern microservices architecture as we grow.
  • Contribute to user-focused React client development.
  • Integrate third-party APIs to automate existing and new product features. 
  • Use modern cloud infrastructure to manage and support our core applications.
  • Focus on system resilience, performance, and security by monitoring application metrics.

Who You Are

  • You’re intellectually honest - you don’t need to always have the right answers. But you need to ask the right questions, use data, and be open to healthy debate.
  • You move fast and understand trade-offs - you get things done thoughtfully and are comfortable being accountable for your work.
  • You’re driven by mission - you believe, like we do, that it’s possible to make money and do good at the same time.
  • You’re ambitious and optimistic - you’re keen to tackle big challenges, bit by bit.
  • You’re persistent - you have grit and view setbacks as a learning opportunity.
  • You want to have fun - you want to celebrate the wins with us.
  • You can wear many hats - you’re a team player willing to chip in across the business.
  • You’re an exceptional performer - you have a track record of high achievement.

Required Skills

  • 5-10 years of modern microservice development with strong back-end experience (Java / Kotlin experience is nice-to-have, but not required).
  • Practical experience with React / TypeScript / Javascript.
  • Experience building scalable web-based software and service-oriented architectures.
  • Prior experience with cloud architecture and implementation.
  • Familiarity with performance monitoring and metrics.
  • Bonus points: experience in financial services / fintech.
  • Bonus points: experience with security and compliance.

We’re an equal opportunity employer and value diversity in the workplace. We’re assembling a well-rounded team of exceptional performers to help us build a great company for the long-term.
