Software Engineer

Who you are

• 2+ years of experience building scalable software in production environments
• Proven experience with both a modern front-end framework (React or comparable) and a server-side framework (Ruby on Rails, Go, or comparable)
• Experience designing APIs and working with transactional databases and caching, plus client-side state, performance, and component-driven UI
• Comfort owning a feature across the full stack, and eagerness to learn the parts you haven't touched yet
• A product mindset with a strong bias toward experimentation, iteration, and measuring impact
• Exposure to large-scale architecture patterns and an appreciation for clean, maintainable code

What the job involves

• Chime's Growth Engineering team is focused on building product experiences that directly move business metrics and help millions of people achieve financial progress
• As a full stack Growth Engineer, you'll work across the stack - React and TypeScript on the front end, Rails and Go services behind it - to build features that drive member growth at Chime
• You'll collaborate closely with product, design, data science, marketing, and analytics to experiment rapidly, drive measurable outcomes, and scale impactful solutions
• This role is perfect for engineers who thrive in fast-moving environments, want to help define new products or experiments, and are passionate about helping Chime grow faster and smarter
• Build and ship growth-focused consumer features end to end - React and TypeScript interfaces, the services and APIs behind them, and the experiments that measure them
• Collaborate cross-functionally with mobile, product, design, data science, and marketing teams to identify member pain points and opportunities
• Rapidly prototype and launch A/B tests, iterating on ideas that improve activation, conversion, and engagement
• Analyze the performance of features post-launch to inform future iterations and growth strategies
• Apply a metrics-driven mindset to decision-making and prioritize efforts based on member and business impact
• Improve reliability, scalability, and performance across the stack - from page load and funnel conversion on the client to latency and throughput in our services
• Contribute to a culture of technical excellence through mentorship, code reviews, and driving best practices
