Senior Full Stack Software Engineer

Across 20+ years of delivering financial planning and analytics products that are powerful yet simple to use, we’ve tackled complex challenges head-on. Along the way, we’ve had our share of failures, but we learn fast, adapt, and keep moving forward.

This mindset keeps us at the leading edge—creating products that don’t just help businesses; they change the way people work.

We don’t believe in micromanagement. We empower our teams to solve customer problems in the best way they see fit—trusting them to make good decisions, take ownership, and drive meaningful impact.

We move fast, but never recklessly. Learning and improvement are key to our success, so we set aside time for everyone to focus on personal growth — because better people build better products.

We work hard, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously. Whether it’s running a paper aeroplane competition, our weekly group curry expedition or celebrating wins together, we believe work should be fun.
