Full Title : Senior Software Engineer, Platform

Location

Bellevue, WA. This role offers the flexibility to primarily work remotely, with team members typically going into the office 1-2 times per month for collaborative activities such as team design sessions and company events.

Role Overview

You will be instrumental in designing, developing, and operating the critical backend services and APIs that power our innovative bill pay platform. Working in a dynamic startup environment, you'll leverage your expertise to build scalable, resilient, and secure systems. This role requires a blend of strong technical leadership, hands-on development, and a commitment to operational excellence, as you contribute to the core infrastructure that drives our company's success.

About You

You're more than just a developer; you're a pragmatic and driven engineer who thrives on building impactful solutions in a fast-paced environment.

You're excited by the prospect of shaping products that handle significant financial transactions and directly contribute to our company's success.

We'd love to hear from you if :

• You're a Pragmatic Problem-Solver : You have a strong bias for action and excel at finding the right balance between high-quality engineering and rapid delivery. You're intentionally curious, critically assess business goals against technical effort, and won't hesitate to propose thoughtful trade-offs – like how cutting 5% of scope might save 50% of effort – to help us make the right calls.
• You Seek to Understand the "Why" : You're naturally curious about our business, the fintech landscape, and specifically the bill pay industry. You strive to understand the company's goals because you know it helps you build more effective and targeted solutions.
• You Take Ownership of Quality and Security : You see features through from idea to operation, taking deep accountability for their success, reliability, and security. Given that we handle financial transactions, you have an ingrained commitment to software craftsmanship and proactively build robust, secure, and scalable systems.
• You're a Collaborative Force : You believe that the best outcomes are achieved through teamwork. You're an excellent communicator, actively share your knowledge, prioritize team goals, and enjoy mentoring fellow engineers, helping to elevate the entire team's capabilities.
• You Drive Continuous Improvement : You possess a strong desire to learn and grow, constantly seeking ways to improve not only your own skills but also our team's processes, codebase, and overall engineering culture.

Who We Are

Each year U.S. households spend over $3.8 trillion - about one third of all consumer spending - on recurring bill payments. While staying on top of these bills is the single largest determinant for consumer financial health, organizing and paying them can be a time-consuming and frustrating chore. Since its inception, doxo has been on a mission to simplify and reduce the anxiety of staying on top of bills, empowering consumers to improve their financial health. Our company was founded on the simple idea that there should be an easy and more secure way for consumers to pay all of their bills through a single account, with any payment method, on any device.

As consumers shift more bill payments online and to mobile, doxo continues to experience rapid growth. To date, over eight million doxo users across 97% of U.S. zip codes have paid bills through the payment network, across more than 45 different service categories. With more than 120,000 payable billers, doxo’s proprietary, crowd-sourced provider directory is the largest in the nation.

doxo is consistently recognized as both an innovative company and a great place to work by the likes of Inc. Magazine , Deloitte , Comparably , and BuiltIn . Come join us as we grow the team to further accelerate growth, forever changing the bill pay landscape to focus on the customer.

Why We Are Different

doxo is unique in that we have already found product / market fit and that our service is filling an important market need every day. But we are still small enough that every employee, no matter their position, can make a meaningful impact. Because transparency is a priority at all levels across the organization, we are all aware of how our work contributes to the success of our business as a whole. We are agile and work hard to solve difficult problems quickly. We work as a team to get things done and mentor individuals to get to the next level in their career.
