Senior Full Stack Engineer (Client Domain)

Democratize Access To Credit

Together we’ll dismantle barriers to housing for working families to use data to eliminate the racial wealth gap. The ability to build credit from rental payments has the potential to give over 45 million renters with little to no credit a pathway into the financial system. Those individuals then stand to save over $200,000 in reduced lifetime interest payments, build home equity by qualifying for mortgages, and build wealth by passing job screening requirements.

Client Domain Team

We are building a team of owners and changemakers. It is not enough to have the intention to do good; Esusu engineers translate intent into action and outcomes. We believe that accomplishing our ambitious goals cannot be done by lone heroes. Lasting change requires work by determined and collaborative individuals with a customer-first mindset. Our engineers aim to delight our customers and drive our business and team forward by leveraging their technical skills, empathetic curiosity, and teamwork.

Our back-end is microservice based, hosted in AWS and mainly written in Go. Our front-end is currently based on React and written in Typescript. Our data infrastructure is based on PostgreSQL, S3 and MongoDB. We are continuously innovating, and always open to new solutions. Because Esusu is a financial services company, we are obsessive about every aspect of compliance and security. We are Test-Driven-Development enthusiasts and embrace a DevOps environment where your team is responsible for the full spectrum of development, testing, deployment, and maintenance, including working with product and business operations teams to create customer-focused solutions. Even though we are 100% remote, Esusu’s culture is intensely collaborative.

The Challenge

We are looking for an experienced Senior Engineer with full stack expertise (if you have a bias, we would prefer back-end) to play a pivotal role in the future growth of our company. You will be responsible for delivering polished solutions in collaboration with an agile team of mission-driven and talented front-end and back-end engineers.

You will be working on our next generation of customer facing apps for our enterprise customers, building new features/functionality that will benefit millions of people. These products will drive the future growth of our company, and you will be pivotal in their development. This will require you to strip problems down to their essential elements, then conceive simple, elegant solutions –always planning for scale, always thinking from a customer and product-oriented perspective.

This role will report to the company’s Client Products Engineering Manager.
