We proudly serve more than 6 million parents and kids with our award-winning banking app for families. With Greenlight, parents can automate allowance, manage chores, set flexible spend controls, and invest for their family’s future. Kids and teens learn to earn, save, spend wisely, and invest.
At Greenlight, we believe every child should have the opportunity to become financially healthy and happy. It’s no small task, and that’s why we leap out of bed every morning to come to work. Because creating a better, brighter future for the next generation depends on it.
Greenlight is looking for a Senior Software Engineer, Developer Experience to join our Developer Experience (DevEx) team, a team dedicated to ensuring every engineer has the right tools, processes, and environment to do their best work. This role blends hands-on developer tooling engineering with performance and reliability expertise, and carries a forward-looking mission: leverage AI to transform how we build and operate our developer infrastructure.
You will own tooling that spans the full developer lifecycle, from local development environments and CI/CD pipelines to performance testing frameworks and AI-powered automation. Your work will directly reduce friction for engineering teams, accelerate delivery, and ensure that every release meets Greenlight’s high bar for performance and reliability.
