Senior Platform Engineer

Banking is being reimagined—and customers expect every interaction to be easy, personal, and instant
.

We are building a universal banking assistant that millions of U.S. consumers can use to transact across all financial institutions and, over time,
autonomously drive their financial goals
. Powered by our proprietary BankGPT platform
, this assistant is positioned to displace age-old legacy systems within financial institutions and own the end-to-end CX stack
, unlocking a $200B opportunity and potentially replacing multiple publicly traded companies
.

Ultimately,
our mission is to drive financial well-being for millions of consumers.

With over two-thirds of Americans living paycheck to paycheck, 50% holding less than $500 in savings, and only 17% financially literate,
we aim to
put financial well-being on autopilot to help solve this problem.

We are building an AI-native platform where agentic systems, real-time services, and distributed infrastructure converge to power intelligent financial products. We are looking for a Senior Platform Engineer who is deeply technical, AI-first by mindset, and excited to build foundational systems through code.

This is a senior individual contributor role for someone who:

• Thinks in distributed systems
• Codes extensively and confidently
• Understands AI-native architectures
• Raises the engineering bar for everyone around them

You will write production-grade code daily and own critical components of our core platform.

• Design and implement core platforms that power multi-agent orchestration, real-time decisioning, and AI workflows.
• Build structured control layers around LLM integrations to ensure reliability and low latency.
• Develop abstractions that allow AI systems to operate safely and predictably at scale.
• Contribute to evaluation, monitoring, and guardrail systems for AI development lifecycle and agentic architectures.

• Design and build low-latency infrastructure platforms
• Optimize resource utilization and costs
• Enable streaming and event-driven platforms to be hosted
• Build fault tolerance, resiliency, and failovers.
• Enable reducing tail latency and eliminate performance bottlenecks.

• Write production-quality code in Python and at least one systems/backend language (Node.js or Go preferred).
• Review code with rigor and raise engineering standards.
• Refactor and simplify, and build abstractions over complex infrastructure systems for maintainability.

• Build reusable service frameworks and platform abstractions.
• Improve observability, logging, metrics, and tracing.
• Drive architectural improvements through RFCs and technical proposals.
• Work closely with engineers and product teams.
• Build a security first mindset and frameworks to enable secure SDLC.
• Support compliance, security, and governance requirements.

• 7+ years of backend or distributed systems engineering experience.
• Strong proficiency in Python and at least one backend language (Node.js or Go).
• Proven experience with observability and tracing systems (Open Telemetry, Prometheus, Grafana).
• Experience with CI/CD pipeline design (Jenkins, Git Hub Actions, ArgoCD, Git Ops workflows).
• Hands‑on experience with Kubernetes, Helm, Terraform, and declarative infrastructure management
  .
• Deep understanding of distributed systems, concurrency, and performance optimization.
• Experience building high‑availability, production‑scale systems.
• Hands‑on experience designing APIs and microservices.
• Strong debugging skills across complex distributed environments.
• Experience deploying systems in cloud‑native environments.

• Experience working with LLMs or AI‑driven systems in production.
• Familiarity with agentic architectures or multi‑agent orchestration.
• Experience with streaming systems and event‑driven architectures.
• Experience building systems under strict latency constraints.
• Experience in fintech or regulated environments

• Build core platform systems that power one of the fastest-growing AI companies in fintech.
• Shape developer experience, infrastructure standards,…
