Pinwheel is looking for a creative product-focused engineer that craves autonomy and impact in their role to work across Pinwheel’s entire customer-facing stack. Product Engineering is at the heart of what we do here, and this role will help select and lead impactful projects that touch the surfaces our customers use every day. You’ll work on a nimble team, working directly with cross-functional stakeholders across Engineering, Product, and Design, to execute this mission-critical work.

You’ll focus mostly on front-end engineering work (web app development and mobile SDK development), with some supporting back-end engineering work as well. 

Finally, you’ll join a team known for high-velocity, high-quality output and contribute to leveling up that team through mentorship and continuous improvement of our processes and standards.

• Deeply understand our customer needs and design systems to meet them
• Architect and develop frontend experiences used by every Pinwheel customer, partner, and user
• Maintain and improve our admin and customer web applications, as well as our best-in-class web and mobile SDKs
• Support (and at times lead) the development of new products in the Pinwheel ecosystem, balancing high product velocity with quality and reliability
• Contribute to iterative technical quality: we pay down tech debt while we’re working on new projects and expect you to be a leader in the responsible pay-down of tech debt
• Create and improve tooling, processes, and engineering standards across the team
• Mentor engineers and help the team grow

• 5+ years of experience building and maintaining front-end or full-stack applications: data modeling, application logic, and user experience
• Prior experience working at an early-stage startup or small tech company
• Deep expertise with modern frontend web frameworks (React, Vue, etc.)
• Experience working with modern back-end languages/frameworks (e.g. FastAPI, Django, Rails, Gin)
• Prior experience working on mobile apps or libraries is a big plus
• Played key implementation roles in projects with multiple teams and engineers
• Desire to learn new systems and technology as our business evolves
• Ability to design systems and evaluate the tradeoffs in scalability, reliability, performance, and maintainability
• Passion for working closely with customers
• Creativity, empathy, and a drive for continuous improvement

At Pinwheel, we are committed to building an environment that is diverse and inclusive. We believe that having people across different backgrounds, experiences, abilities, and perspectives enables us not only to build the best financial products, but to help us realize the best versions of ourselves. Pinwheel is an equal opportunity employer, and we aim to be an open and supportive place to work.
