ABOUT THE TEAM

The Rocket Ready team helps clients improve their readiness for home ownership, through a collaboration between Rocket Money and Rocket Mortgage. We build technology and solutions that empower both our clients, and the internal teams who work directly with them. Some of the key products we support include:

• User-facing public web applications and CRM for clients interested in home ownership.

• Internal tools to improve the efficiency of licensed mortgage bankers and consultants.

• Data pipelines for receiving, enriching, and operationalizing data across the company.

Our platform is a bit over a year old, and much of our work is greenfield development on applications we’ve built as a small team. At the same time, we interact extensively with existing systems within our larger parent organization. As a result, our days are usually a healthy mix of deep, focused development, alongside collaboration with teams across the company.

A (non-exhaustive) list of a few technologies we work with frequently include:
Python, FastAPI, UV, Kafka, Confluent, React, Type Script, Tan Stack, C#, .Net, Postgres, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, Sales Force, AWS, and Git Hub Actions.

We’re looking for experienced, full-stack software engineers to own the lifecycle of turning our team’s ideas and needs into reality. Ideally, you have deep familiarity with our tools and tech stack so you can hit the ground running. Even more importantly, you’re an adaptable learner who’s driven by growth—both your own, and that of the organization. You’ll be a great fit if you:

• Have 7+ years of experience in relevant software engineering projects.

• Have an entrepreneurial spirit, and are excited to use your technical skills to positively impact business outcomes.

• Write clean, reliable code across a variety of platforms.

• Have significant professional experience working with one or more of the following:
Python, React (or similar frontend framework), Postgres (or a similar relational database).

• Are naturally collaborative, curious, and communicative, and enjoy ideating with product, marketing, and other engineering teams as much as you love writing code.

• Are motivated by our mission to help people improve their financial lives, and achieve home ownership.

• Life Insurance

• Long/Short Term Disability

• Competitive Pay

• 401k Matching

• Team Member Stock Purchasing Program (TMSPP)

• Daily Lunch, Snacks & Coffee (in-office only)

• Commuter benefits (in-office only)

Salary range of $150,000 - $185,000/ year + bonus + benefits. Base pay offered may vary depending on job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
