Employer job description
From Raydar's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
About the company
Our client is a seed-stage consumer fintech company building an AI tax accountant backed by human CPA expertise. Customers reach the service by call, text, chat or email, and staff CPAs review high-impact decisions. The company has raised $7M and is building a year-round financial partnership instead of a once-a-year tax questionnaire.
The role / why it matters
As Senior Software Engineer, you will own product features from backend data architecture to the UI on a small remote team. You will turn agent workflows into reliable experiences people can trust with sensitive financial data, and help shape architecture as the product grows.

- Design, build and operate production full-stack features in TypeScript, Node.js and React.
- Own data models, backend services, event flows and user interfaces end to end.
- Build data pipelines and distributed systems as customer usage grows.
- Partner with AI engineers to bring agent workflows into polished product experiences.
- Design auditability, security and access controls for a regulated financial domain.
- Use AI coding tools daily and help establish the team's engineering practices.
Requirements
What we're looking for
- 5+ years of full-time software engineering experience after school.
- A degree in Computer Science or a related STEM field.
- A record of shipping and operating production full-stack features from data model through UI.
- Production TypeScript experience with Node.js and React or Next.js, plus Python, Kafka or event-driven pipelines and distributed systems.
- Experience at an early-stage startup or a startup-like team, and with fintech payments, billing, ledger or risk systems.
- Strong ownership, product judgment and comfort shipping with minimal guidance.
- Bonus points
