About the Role
We're hiring a Senior Staff Engineer to serve as a Technical Lead across multiple pods in the Money Group – Gusto's fastest-growing organization and a cornerstone of the company's transformation into the Small Business Finance Platform.
You'll leverage deep domain expertise to help shape the technical vision for systems that power consumer and business financial health including financial accounts, money movement, lending, expense controls, etc. – ensuring the architecture scales as we grow. This role spans strategy and execution: guiding architectural direction across a group of 15-20 engineers, vetting external partners, prototyping new product lines to unblock product decisions, extracting services from our monolith, and mentoring the engineers around you. You'll be the person who fills whatever role the group needs to hit its goals – from hands-on coding to strategic planning to unblocking other teams.
If you're excited about building financial infrastructure with real impact on the people and businesses that power the modern economy, we'd love for you to join us.
About the Team
Money is Gusto's fastest-growing group, building financial products for both sides of the employment relationship. For small businesses, we're extending the category of employer-facing financial services – bill pay, invoicing, working capital, expense cards, and cash flow insights that help SMBs get paid faster and pay others with confidence.
