The Grid Product Engineer will help us build features that optimize taxes, bridge paychecks, and build credit. You’ll collaborate with product, engineering, and business leaders to deliver high-impact work for a growing base of paying users, directly contributing to their financial wellbeing.

What youll do

• Build product features end-to-end, including domain models, business logic, and API integrations.
• Drive deployment and iteration with data-driven, incremental releases toward bold milestones.
• Leverage robust data pipelines and analytics to evaluate product and system performance using SQL and analytics tools.
• Debug complex state machines in an event-driven backend using pub/sub to ensure a seamless user experience.

• Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, version control, automated testing, and code review processes.
