About OnePay

OnePay is the consumer fintech trusted by millions of Americans to make money better.

Our financial system is broken. High fees, low rates, and too few ways to actually grow your money. We’re fixing it. And we’re moving fast.

We’re an all-in-one financial services platform that brings together banking, high-yield savings, credit cards, point-of-sale lending, investing, and crypto in one place. We also partner with employers, HCM providers, gig platforms, and others to deliver embedded financial services to millions of employees and frontline workers.

We’re backed by Walmart, the world’s largest retailer, and Ribbit Capital, one of fintech’s most respected investors, giving us rare scale, distribution, and the opportunity to build something truly category-defining.

But what really sets OnePay apart is how we move. Our customers don’t have time to wait… and neither do we. This place moves fast, and we’re looking for people who are:

• Ready to run

• Hungry and driven by urgency

• Exceptional at what they do, with low ego

• Comfortable operating in motion

As a Backend Software Engineer on the Core App team at OnePay, you will build backend systems that directly power our mobile and web user experience. You will:

• Design, build, and ship backend services that support user-facing features across mobile and web experiences

• Collaborate closely with frontend engineers, product managers, designers, and data partners

• Lead backend technical planning and contribute to architecture decisions that improve scalability, reliability, and performance

• Proactively identify opportunities to improve user experience through backend optimizations and system enhancements

You Bring

• Familiarity with message brokers and event driven systems, as well as caching and performance optimization strategies

• Demonstrated ability to lead technical execution, mentor other engineers, and deliver with a high bar for quality

• Drive and proactivity – everyone here is a builder and executor.

Tools We Use
