At Meow, we provide startups with business accounts, corporate cards, and the clean financial reporting they need to operate and raise capital. Our customers are complex and global, from crypto protocols to multi-entity international businesses. We combine financial infrastructure with hands-on support so founders can operate efficiently and scale with confidence.
We’re hiring a Software Engineer who wants real ownership in a fast-moving startup environment.
What You’ll Do
Build full-stack web features (front-end, back-end) from zero to one.
Comfortable with building against 3rd-party APIs and have a good mind for state machines. The financial system is one giant state machine.

Hold yourself accountable to high standards of quality.
Recently graduated or graduating soon with a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.
Strong programming fundamentals and an ability to reason through complex problems.
Experience building software through internships, coursework, research, or personal projects.
Comfortable learning new technologies and working across the stack. Our tech stack includes TypeScript, React, Python (FastAPI) and Postgres.
You’ve built something outside of your required coursework because you wanted to. A side project, app, tool, open-source contribution, or anything else that demonstrates initiative.
You take ownership, communicate clearly, and are excited to work in a fast-moving startup environment.
Must be authorized to work in the U.S. without sponsorship. U.S. citizenship or permanent residency is required.
Compensation
