We've built a lovable and highly engaging product, and our customers include leading employers like Zoom, ServiceTitan, Thumbtack, Invitae, and Medium.


You'll join a multidisciplinary team of senior engineers, designers, marketers, and financial advisors. Our team was early at Facebook, Pinterest, and others, and have built products for hundreds of millions of users. In addition, our co-founder and CEO has deep fintech experience, having invested in companies like Coinbase, Guideline, Even, Jetty, Oscar, and more.


Role overview


We're looking for talented software engineers, who are excited about our vision and mission of democratizing financial wellness, and passionate about building quality user experiences. Our team is very collaborative, and we prioritize quality engineering as well as an amazing product experience.


What you'll do:



  • Take full ownership for engineering features across all levels of the stack, from end to end, idea to production.

  • Code quickly and test thoroughly, balancing velocity and code health. Write well-documented, clean, testable code.

  • Collaborate with the multi-disciplinary Northstar team, from other engineers to designers, marketers, sales, and financial advising. We do our best work when we all work together to come up with the solution.

  • Work with the team to reveal user needs and develop feature requirements. Work closely with the design team to define and build product, adapting to customer feedback, and making decisions around tradeoffs.


Our stack:



  • Rails, TypeScript, React, Postgres, and GraphQL


Example engineering challenges at Northstar:



  • Multi-Platform Consumer Product: With our fintech expertise, we're building a best-in-class experience to manage your finances. We focus on ease of use, and understand through behavioral psychology frameworks what methods are most effective in motivating behavior change.

  • Banking Infrastructure & Automation: We are in a golden age of banking infrastructure and APIs. We are combining the latest banking APIs in a unique way to demystify finances and support our advisors.

  • Future of Financial Advisory Tools: Empower financial advisors to do their best work and scale their time.

  • B2B Tools: We have 2 customers: individuals employers. Employers have a unique set of needs and problems, so you'll have the opportunity to build for a varied range of customers.


About you



  • You have at least 2 years of professional experience developing production-quality product.

  • You are passionate about our mission and the opportunity to make a real difference in people's lives.

  • You enjoy being a generalist, ready to learn and build with the right tools for each problem. You focus on the problem, rather than on the tool.

  • You have a founder mentality. You have a bias towards action, especially when faced with open-ended problems. You are highly autonomous, but thrive with collaboration with a team.

  • You are a life-long learner, humble, and constantly looking to improve.

  • Clarity of communication is important to you, both spoken and written.

  • You are highly empathetic to teammates, customers – everyone.

  • You love working with and learning from teammates across functions.

  • You enjoy thinking about tradeoffs, and being decisive in making decisions and moving forward without full information.

  • You prefer the early high growth stages of a startup, before systems have been established.


Why you might be excited about us



  • We've hit an inflection point with product-market fit. We have passionate, paying customers, and are scaling quickly.

  • Our cross-functional team is uniquely suited to solve this problem. Titles are fluid, when everyone contributes to solving a problem in their unique ways.

  • The types of product and engineering problems we're solving have both breadth and depth, and for several different personas.

  • We're mission-driven. We founded Northstar on the belief that every person deserves the best objective, personalized, and affordable financial management. We don't make money from secret referrals fees, and are completely aligned with the customer.

  • We invest in the personal and professional growth of every team member.

  • Competitive salary, equity, and benefits to support your whole life.

  • Flexible vacation and time off policy, and work-life balance.
