At Mercury, our Bank Accounts team plays a similar role for the business: we own engineering for depository accounts, the essential foundation that keeps everything else running. It’s not the flashy feature or headline-grabbing product, but getting this right ensures the entire platform works reliably. Just as aqueducts demand careful design, maintenance, and attention to long-term sustainability, we build systems that are dependable, secure, and scalable, supporting the business today and for years to come. As a Senior Engineer on this team, you won’t just write code — you’ll drive business impact, set technical direction, lead initiatives, and raise the bar for engineering excellence. This role blends execution with leadership: designing and shipping software, aligning stakeholders, and mentoring teammates to think bigger and build better.

  • Lead Projects End-to-End: Drive technical projects from concept to production. Define solutions, analyze tradeoffs, make critical decisions, and deliver software that works today and is sustainable for tomorrow.
  • Collaborate Across Functions: Partner with product, design, and business stakeholders to shape initiatives. Translate between technical and non-technical audiences to ensure clarity, alignment, and buy-in.
  • Code Craftsmanship: Write clear, testable, and maintainable code. Establish patterns and best practices that your team can follow, ensuring long-term scalability and reliability.
  • Build for Quality & Sustainability: Design extensible systems, make balanced decisions on tech debt, plan careful rollouts, and own the quality of your work through post-launch monitoring.
  • Think Product, Not Just Code: Approach problems with a product mindset. You care as much about the business impact of what you build as the technical design.
  • Mentor & Elevate: Coach engineers on your team by sharing patterns, practices, and critical thinking to raise the technical bar and foster a culture of sustainable engineering.
  • Proven experience leading technical projects at scale, including planning, execution, and stakeholder management.
  • Strong full-stack engineering skills, with deep knowledge of modern web development practices, API design, and system design.
  • Clear and persuasive communication skills — you can articulate tradeoffs and influence decisions across teams.
  • A mindset that balances urgency with craftsmanship: shipping fast, without cutting corners on quality engineering.
  • Creativity and adaptability — you think beyond the obvious and find solutions that move both product and business forward.
  • A track record of mentoring engineers and helping teams grow.
