## About the role

Savvy is hiring a Senior Engineer to lead the design and delivery of complex product and platform work. Our platform is where AI meets fiduciary advice, and the senior engineers who build it don't just use AI to go faster, they make decisions about where AI belongs in the system, how to build it reliably, and how to raise the team's ability to do the same. You'll own end-to-end delivery of high-impact projects, establish engineering patterns for the team, and help define how our platform evolves as we scale.

## What they're looking for

- 5+ years of professional experience
- Track record of leading projects end-to-end with measurable business impact, you've taken ambiguous problems from 0 to production and held the quality bar throughout
- Strong full-stack or platform engineering depth, we use Rails, React, Next.js, PostgreSQL, and GraphQL, comfortable across the stack or with the depth to close gaps fast
- Strong system design instincts: data models, service boundaries, failure modes, and how systems hold up at scale
- Strong technical communication: you write clearly, give effective feedback, and collaborate well across functions in a startup environment
