Software Engineer - Mobile Dev Tooling

Join to apply for the Software Engineer - Mobile Dev Tooling role at Brigit

Hi, we're Brigit! A holistic financial health company helping everyday Americans build a brighter financial future. With a business model that is aligned with our customers, we create transparent, fair, and simple financial products that put money back in the hands of our members, help them spend wisely, avoid unfair fees and build their credit quickly. If autonomy, ownership, and having meaningful input at the company you work for is important to you, come join our growing team!

Brigit is doing innovative and exciting work, but don’t just take our word for it, our work is being recognized by others:

• Built In’s 2023 - 2025 Best Startups to Work For In New York City
• Built In's 2025 Best Places to Work For In New York City

Brigit is looking for a Software Engineer with mobile or platform experience to help us scale our next-gen consumer finance platform. Our product has tremendous traction helping 1 million+ low income Americans make ends meet. We’ve built beautifully designed, user-centric mobile and web clients with React (including React Native) and Type Script, and are looking to expand our tooling to accelerate mobile development.

As we approach our next phase of growth, we're scoping out new products and features helping our users save more and improve their credit options - in short, better equipping them along their financial journey. You'll have the opportunity to influence the frontend architecture for the greater engineering org to build these new products from the ground up for millions of users.

Financial products often come with difficult user challenges, and if you're excited by the idea of reconstructing difficult concepts into easy-to-use interfaces for engineers to consume, then this is the right role for you.

Our engineering team has two main goals:

The engineering team is small and nimble; you'll get an extraordinary amount of autonomy and ownership. More importantly, you’ll have a large say in the direction of the company -- both in terms of our technology and our product. One of our greatest strengths is the speed with which we can move. If you want to propose a new way of doing things, we are all ears.

If you have an idea for a new feature, we'll be open to it. A new design paradigm? Bring it on.

At Brigit you'll find engineering best practices inspired by our experiences at Palantir, Amazon, Two Sigma, a mature CI/CD process, an easy-to-use local/staging/production development environment, and teammates willing to fill in the gaps. We automate manual things so we can focus on thinking and building something that truly helps people.

• 5+ years professional software engineering experience
• 3+ years of full-time experience in the React Native ecosystem
• Strong understanding of software architecture and agile development practices
• Knowledge of software development tools and related technologies, such as build systems, automation, dependency management, and security.
• Up-to-date grasp of the constantly evolving JS language standards, ES6 and beyond
• Excellent communication skills and ability to work across teams
