About this client:
Staff Software Engineer, Full Stack
Location: San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles, Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal
Company Stage: Series C
Office Type: Hybrid (Mon–Thu in office)
Salary: $225,000 – $300,000 USD
Equity: $600K – $1M in equity (subject to level and experience)
Company Description
Our client is a Series C fintech startup transforming the backbone of the transportation and logistics industry. By building a modern payments infrastructure platform, they are empowering businesses with tools such as digital fuel cards, payroll, and invoice factoring. With over $200M in funding and a growing customer base, they are reimagining how capital moves through supply chains.
This is an opportunity to join a lean, high-impact engineering team solving deeply practical and technically complex problems in real-world logistics. You’ll play a mission-critical role in building systems that power billions in payments volume annually—while working alongside experienced operators and passionate builders.
What You Will Do
▸ Scope, lead, and execute large-scale technical projects from early-stage MVPs to robust, scalable products
▸ Build and maintain user-facing features, internal tools, backend services, and APIs
▸ Make product and engineering trade-offs that balance performance, UX, and business priorities
▸ Own major technical initiatives end-to-end—design, implementation, testing, and deployment
▸ Collaborate cross-functionally with design, product, and operations to build high-quality experiences
▸ Help scale the architecture to support real-time risk systems and billions in transaction volume
▸ Mentor peers and contribute to a collaborative, inclusive team culture
Ideal Candidate Background
▸ 6–15 years of experience building B2B or B2C SaaS products
▸ Played a key role in early engineering teams (e.g. first 30–50 engineers) at startups that scaled
▸ Strong proficiency in React, Ruby, and Postgres
▸ Demonstrated ability to drive technical decisions and architectural design
▸ Experience shipping products 0 → 1 and scaling them to 10x+
▸ CS degree from a top university (or equivalent technical foundation)
▸ Clear, steady career progression with good tenures in previous roles
Preferred
▸ Prior experience at high-product-bar companies (e.g. Plaid, Ramp, Square, Chime, Brex, Coinbase, etc.)
▸ Experience in payments, fintech, or logistics-related platforms
▸ Comfortable working directly with customers and using feedback to shape feature development
▸ Strong written and verbal communication skills; able to align stakeholders on technical paths
▸ Passion for elegant code, fast iteration cycles, and learning new technologies
Compensation, Benefits & Perks
▸ Base Salary: $225K – $300K (flexible for the right candidate)
▸ Equity: $600K – $1M
▸ Work Setup: Hybrid (Mon–Thu onsite) in major cities across the U.S. and Canada
▸ Visa Sponsorship: Available (H1B transfers, TN supported)
▸ Team Culture: High-trust, transparent, and mission-driven environment
▸ Impact: Shape the infrastructure powering the economy’s largest movement engine—transportation
This is a rare chance to join a fast-growing fintech team at a pivotal moment. If you're a seasoned engineer who thrives on ownership, scale, and real-world impact, we'd love to hear from you.
