Senior Software Engineer

PayZen • San Francisco, CA

2d • $190,000 - $225,000

About The Position

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer — an individual contributor who owns a product surface end-to-end. At this level, you work independently on your surface and are guided on novel domains. You own a product surface within Care Finance's provider and partner platform — the systems that connect PayZen to health systems and partners — on a weeks-long horizon, in an environment governed by HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2.

Requirements

• 5+ years of software engineering experience delivering production systems.
• Ability to own a product surface end-to-end and work independently, seeking guidance on novel domains.
• Reliable, high-quality craft with an AI-native approach to output.
• Experience managing your own dependencies and escalating with context, not just problems.
• Hands-on proficiency in at least one of Java, Go, Python, or TypeScript.
• Clear written communication that helps stakeholders act, including non-engineering partners.
• Growing fluency with application security and compliance-regulated environments; HIPAA, PCI-DSS, or SOC 2 exposure a plus.

Responsibilities

• Deliver reliable, high-quality craft on your surface, with AI-native output as the standard. Deepen your fluency with HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 as you build.
• Identify gaps in your surface and contribute to framing the problems worth solving, considering data and compliance implications.
• Deliver reliably on your surface, manage your own dependencies, and escalate with context — not just problems.
• Create clarity through writing that stakeholders can act on, communicate tradeoffs to non-engineering partners, and align the people closest to your work.
• Give timely peer feedback, start mentoring more junior engineers on craft, and take part in hiring independently.
• Automate recurring manual steps, and contribute to shared tooling and internal libraries.
