## About the role

What started as a way to reward people on their largest expense has turned into an ecosystem connecting our members, property managers and local merchants. We run lean and move quickly. Every person here has a real impact on what gets built and how fast it happens.

## What they're looking for

- Strong Java proficiency, Spring Boot/REST experience a plus
- Deep, hands-on API/auth fluency: OAuth/OIDC, webhooks, versioning, edge-case reasoning
- Real, direct experience building features or integrations by working hands-on with a client or partner's engineering team — not just internal teams
- Comfortable taking a solution design from someone else (e.g. a Solutions Architect) and scoping/adjusting it into an actual implementation plan
- Excellent technical communication across audiences from junior developers to CTOs
- Genuine, describable AI-assisted dev workflow
