- Commitment to maintainable, well-tested code — including improving existing systems, not just shipping new ones
- Excellent cross-functional communication: clarifying requirements, weighing tradeoffs, delivering incrementally

- The products and platforms we build directly impact millions of members and sit at the center of ’s mission to help everyday people unlock financial progress. The problems are complex, the stakes are real, and the work matters.
- This role is designed for engineers who want broader scope. You won’t be limited to a narrow feature lane. You’ll work across product experiences and shared infrastructure, helping connect strategy, systems, and execution across Lending.

This role sits in the middle of those seams and gives you meaningful influence over how they scale.
- Lending is a fast-paced fintech environment where we care about moving quickly and building well. We value thoughtful design, strong engineering judgment, high-quality code, and operational excellence. We also actively use AI where it can improve quality, speed, and leverage.
