We create tools to allow our customers to build out their policies using our flexible decisioning engine in a way that supports a wide range of use cases, from the simplest ones to the most complex. In Build, we focus on unlocking new functionalities for our customers, ensuring that our policy-building platform is both robust and easy to use, and continuously improving the experience of building and maintaining our clients’ unique policies in Alloy.</p> <p>An ideal candidate:</p> <ul> <li>Possesses a minimum of 6 years of hands-on experience in developing production-ready software, demonstrating a proven track record of delivering robust and scalable solutions.</li> <li>Exhibits expertise in steering both front-end and backend technical projects, adept at prioritizing tasks, defining requirements, and facilitating productive discussions within the team to drive informed technical decisions.</li> <li>Brings to the table a collaborative mindset, having effectively led engineering teams in collective pursuits, fostering an environment of cooperation and shared success.</li> <li>Demonstrates a remarkable ability to adapt swiftly to the evolving needs of our growing organization and dynamic product landscape, ensuring alignment with strategic objectives.</li> <li>Proficient in client-side technologies such as TypeScript and JavaScript (ES6/React), as well as server-side proficiency in Node.js, enabling seamless development across the entire stack.</li> <li>Holds practical experience working with relational databases, with a strong command over PostgreSQL and its intricacies, ensuring efficient data management and retrieval.</li> </ul> <p>Nice to haves:</p> <ul> <li>Experience working in Fintech or the financial services industry.</li> <li>Proficiency in Python (Django).</li> </ul> <h3><strong>Senior Full Stack TypeScript Engineer, Operate</strong></h3> <p><em>This position has a salary range of $161,000 to $189,000.</em></p> <p>The Operate product engineering team focuses on improving our customers’ day-to-day operations. We build features to help our customers’ employees make human review decisions about how much of a risk their consumer and business accounts pose and then take action on those decisions.</p> <p>For example, when a person applies for a new credit card from a bank that’s a customer of Alloy, Alloy runs the bank’s automated rules which lead to three outcomes: auto-decline xor auto-approve xor human review. In a review, the bank’s employee looks at the automated rules’ results, relevant context (e.g. was there a surge this week in applications with very similar personally identifiable information or was this person’s long-dormant account suddenly receiving hundreds of small transactions), and may also ask the person directly for more info. All that info goes into deciding what should ultimately happen with the person’s credit card application and overall account.</p> <p>The Operate team works to improve these reviews for our customers’ employees, making sure they’re presented with relevant understandable data and context and that they’re able to take useful actions such as</p> <ul> <li>Freeze hijacked bank accounts until the rightful owners can regain control.</li> <li>Release funds for unusual transactions once deemed safe and correct.</li> <li>Protect from fraud ring attacks by triaging, escalating, and resolving alerts.</li> <li>Reporting financial suspicious activity to governments.</li> </ul> <p>These capabilities and more that the Operate team supports are critical to Alloy—they directly affect the balance of protecting our customers from losses from fraud or compliance penalties while increasing how many legitimate consumers and businesses can buy and benefit from our customers’ financial products.</p> <p>An ideal candidate:</p> <ul> <li>Possesses a minimum of 6 years of hands-on experience in developing production-ready software, demonstrating a proven track record of delivering robust and scalable solutions.</li> <li>Is undeniably skilled at coding, architecting software systems, and making the most of tools like GitHub, CircleCI, Jira, and Docker.</li> <li>Consistently delivers and supports impactful, reliable, scalable, extensible features.</li> <li>Leads multi-engineer projects effectively: scoping work and delegating it to other engineers, communicating about the project with leadership, and facilitating productive discussions within the team to resolve blocking issues.</li> <li>Is a collaborative colleague who galvanizes others to improve aspects of their work, be it the codebase, tooling, or team processes.</li> <li>Has an action-oriented mindset of responsibility: leaving the codebase better than it was, working toward solutions even when a problem isn’t with your or your team’s code, actively helping with on-call incidents and contributing to blameless postmortems after.</li> <li>Reacts flexibly to the evolving needs of our organization and customers.</li> <li>Has significant fullstack experience working with the core technologies of our stack: React, Node, and Postgres (or else relatable experience with similar technologies).</li> </ul> <p>Nice to have experience with:</p> <ul> <li>Fintechs or the financial services industry</li> <li>Elasticsearch / OpenSearch</li> <li>Redshift</li> <li>AWS</li> </ul> <p>Alloy is committed to fair and equitable compensation practices.
