About The Position

Our mission is to unlock the full potential of private markets. Privately owned assets like commercial real estate, private equity, and venture capital make up half of our financial ecosystem yet remain inaccessible to most people. We are digitizing these markets, and as a result, bringing efficiency, transparency, and access to one of the most productive corners of our financial ecosystem. If you care about making the world a better place by making markets work better through technology – all while contributing as a member of a values-driven organization – we want to hear from you. Juniper Square offers employees a variety of ways to work, ranging from a fully remote experience to working full-time in one of our physical offices. We invest heavily in digital-first operations, allowing our teams to collaborate effectively across 27 U.S. states, 2 Canadian Provinces, India, Luxembourg, and England. We also have physical offices in San Francisco, New York City, Mumbai and Bangalore for employees who prefer to work in an office some or all of the time. As a Senior Software Engineer for the Accounting Software team, you will drive the team’s technical direction and play a pivotal role in designing and architecting Accounting Software systems. This role involves mentoring team members, solving complex technical challenges, and delivering hands-on contributions as a full-stack leader.

Your leadership will be instrumental in achieving the team’s objectives and advancing our technical vision.
