## About the role

We’re looking for a Senior Full-Stack Engineer to help turn one of the most manual, fragmented financial processes that exist into software. You’ll build across nearly the entire product: the flows that establish someone’s legal authority, find accounts and assets, generate court filings, move money, and give families and attorneys one place to manage an estate. You’ll work across the stack, from the underlying data model and backend logic through the interface someone uses to get something consequential done.

## What they're looking for

- You’ve built from zero to one. You’ve been early at a startup, turned ambitious product direction into production software, and are at your best when the technical path isn’t already defined
- You’re genuinely full stack. You can move from a React interface to backend logic to the underlying data model, and you can translate detailed product and design specs into polished, production-quality software
- Your craft bar is extremely high. You sweat the details, make the shipped product indistinguishable from the spec, and don’t accept “technically works” as finished
- You’ve built software with real complexity underneath it. Long-running workflows, sensitive data, payments, permissions, multiple users, and state that has to remain correct over time are problems you want to solve
- You want ownership, not territory. You move fast, seek direct feedback, have strong opinions without needing to win the argument, and want your work to matter far beyond the code you ship
