• Write backend (Ruby) and frontend (TypeScript) code.
• Collaborate with your peers and People Empowerer to make difficult technical tradeoffs.
• Build software that touches the lives of millions of people and moves billions of dollars.

Here’s what we're looking for:

• At least 6 years of professional software engineering experience, including at least a year of team lead responsibilities.
• A desire to learn and grow on the job.
• Building with quality and rigor in mind, and a constant focus on the impact our code has on our customers’ financial well-being.
• Must be physically located and eligible to work in Turkiye.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Comfort navigating a domain that is frequently ambiguous, and asking for help and clarification when needed.
• Willingness to timeshift for some overlap with US-based teammates.
• Existing familiarity with Ruby and TypeScript is a plus!
