About The Position

As a Senior Mobile Software Engineer on Upstart’s Cash Line team, you’ll build mobile experiences for a new consumer credit product that gives customers always-on access to a reusable line of credit they can draw from, repay, and use again in real time. You’ll use React Native to ship high-quality features that directly shape how customers discover, access, and manage Cash Line in the mobile app. This is a hands-on role for an engineer who wants to own end-to-end feature delivery, make strong technical decisions, and help define the mobile experience for a foundational new business line at Upstart. You’ll work closely with product, design, backend, and cross-functional partners to build thoughtful, reliable experiences in a space where speed, correctness, and customer trust all matter. The Cash Line team is building one of Upstart’s newest consumer products: a revolving credit experience designed to create a more durable, recurring relationship with customers beyond a one-time loan. As part of that work, the team is shaping the mobile experience for a product with broad visibility across the customer journey, from application and approval through ongoing account access and reuse. We’re a fast-moving, highly cross-functional team working at the intersection of consumer product, real-time systems, and financial infrastructure. Our engineers partner closely with teams across product, growth, finance, compliance, and capital markets, and we value people who can combine strong product instincts with pragmatic execution in an ambiguous, high-impact environment.
