Senior Python Software Engineer

We’re partnering with a venture-backed (Series C) product company building an platform for regulated financial services, starting in the mortgage space.

Rather than modernizing on top of broken legacy systems, this team built and operates its own regulated financial business, managing billion sin assets. That hands-on ownership is what allowed them to turn a historically low-margin industry into a high-margin, software-driven operation, while materially improving customer experience.

This is a high-ownership role for engineers who want to work on systems that actually matter production-grade software operating under real regulatory, data, and scale constraints.

You’ll have meaningful influence over architecture, technical direction, and execution. The environment favors engineers who think in systems, challenge assumptions, and take pride in building durable platforms rather than one-off features.

• Leading design and implementation of scalable backend systems and services in a regulated domain

• Owning complex workflows that span data ingestion, processing, and automation

• Translating regulatory and business constraints into clean, extensible architectures

• Partnering with Product and Design to shape technical direction and execution

• Setting engineering standards, reviewing designs, and raising the technical bar

• Mentoring engineers and contributing to a strong ownership-driven culture
