As a Senior Software Engineer on the Upstart Bank team, you will design and build scalable systems, services, and user-facing workflows to support core platform operations in a regulated environment. You will own technical design and delivery for large engineering projects involving funding, payments, reporting, partner integrations, and internal operational workflows. The role requires translating complex regulatory requirements into reliable software while improving system reliability, performance, and data consistency across distributed services. To succeed, you must be proficient in at least one modern programming language such as Python, Java, or Kotlin. Preferred skills include experience with fintech infrastructure, payment systems, Kafka, gRPC, and event-driven architectures. You will solve the challenge of transitioning from a fragmented state-based system to a unified federal framework to simplify regulatory infrastructure and improve access to credit at scale.
