Full-Time Senior Backend Engineer

As part of this role, you will:

• Feel a strong sense of product ownership and actively seek responsibility – we often self-organize on small/medium projects, and we want someone who’s excited to help shape and build the future of Mercury Personal.
• Work closely with designers, product leaders, and other engineers to build new features for Mercury Personal and thoughtfully port existing business banking features over.

The ideal candidate for the role:

• Has 4+ years of software development experience, with a knowledge of or excitement to learn Haskell.
• Has made architectural decisions in the past and seen the impact of those decisions over time. You should be able to clearly articulate your technical opinions and lay out tradeoffs.
• Is passionately product-minded and has experience building and shipping new products.
• Is someone comfortable driving discussions in areas with ambiguous ownership, approaches them with empathy, and delights in getting outcomes. Our work touches many other teams and areas of the product; you’ll have a lot of autonomy and the expectation is you’ll use that to seek out ways to have an impact.
• Is ridiculously helpful, taking initiative to make your coworkers’ lives easier.
