About Upstart
Upstart is a leading AI lending marketplace partnering with banks and credit unions to expand access to affordable credit.

Upstart is a digital-first company, which means that most Upstarters live and work anywhere in the United States. However, we also have offices in San Mateo, California; Columbus, Ohio; and Austin, Texas.
Most Upstarters join us because they connect with our mission of enabling access to effortless credit based on true risk. If you are energized by the impact you can make at Upstart, we’d love to hear from you!
The Team:
Upstart’s Auto Retail team is on a mission to build the world's best car buying experience. More than $1 trillion of cars are sold each year in the U.S., yet it consistently ranks as one of the worst consumer experiences in America. Join us to help fix that, and make a big impact in one of the world’s largest industries.
As a Software Engineer on the Auto Retail team at Upstart, you will work closely with cross-functional partners to execute projects across the whole stack. You’re a self-starter who delivers work with quality, testability, resiliency, and maintainability in mind. You’ll move efficiently and deliberately to drive both existing and greenfield projects forward, while always keeping our end users in mind.
How you’ll make an impact
- Lead successful projects working collaboratively with engineering team members and cross-functional partners
- Make thoughtful architectural decisions to improve the quality of our software
- Translate complex business requirements into technical plans, and ultimately high quality code

- Experience with cloud computing platforms and services such as AWS, Azure, or GCP
Travel requirements - As a digital first company, the majority of your work can be accomplished remotely. The majority of our employees can live and work anywhere in the U.S but are encouraged to to still spend high quality time in-person collaborating via regular onsites. The in-person sessions’ cadence varies depending on the team and role; most teams meet once or twice per quarter for 2-4 consecutive days at a time.
What you'll love:
- Competitive Compensation (base + bonus & equity)
- Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage with Health Savings Account contributions from Upstart
- 401(k) with 100% company match up to $4,500 and immediate vesting and after-tax savings
