About The Position

The Targeted Experiences team builds and evolves SMART, Q2’s personalization and targeting platform for digital banking. SMART turns real-time behavioral, transactional, and partner data into actionable insights that can be activated across digital banking experiences and external systems. In addition to building the platform itself, the team owns partner enablement — ensuring SMART is reliable, well-documented, and ready for consumption by external developers, fintech partners, and marketing platforms. The team is intentionally multi-disciplinary and owns the stack end to end, bringing together engineers with backgrounds in backend and frontend software engineering, data engineering, and data science. As SMART evolves, the team’s scope will continue to expand beyond a single product toward broader targeted and personalized experience capabilities across Q2’s ecosystem. Q2 is seeking a Sr Software Engineer to join the Targeted Experiences team and help build the platform capabilities behind SMART. In this role, you will work both independently and collaboratively to design, implement, and operate cloud-native, data-driven services that power personalization and targeted experiences across Q2’s platform and partner ecosystem. This is a production-first engineering role: the systems you build will run in live environments, handle real customer data, and be consumed by both internal teams and external developers. We are looking for engineers who enjoy working across the stack, care deeply about correctness and reliability, and are comfortable operating in a fast-moving platform environment where quality matters.
