Trusted by public sector agencies and private sector institutions on the front lines of illicit activity, including criminal networks, sanctioned actors and state-backed threats. Backed by Bessemer and Y Combinator.
About the role
TRM's Intel team runs at the intersection of intelligence analysts, back-end systems, and AI. This role sits at that intersection. Its mandate is to make TRM's intelligence collection meaningfully better with AI . You'll work directly alongside our intel analysts to understand how they collect and act on intelligence, then build the AI-powered products, tooling, and infrastructure that let them do it faster and at greater scale.
What they're looking for
- 6+ years full-stack software engineering experience building scalable web applications, services, and APIs
- Strong product sense — the ability to zoom out, spot the highest-impact and most scalable solution, and ship it as something people actually keep using. This is the bar-raising skill for this role
- Proficiency in Python and/or JavaScript/TypeScript, with strong back-end and systems engineering skills
- Experience building backend systems, working with various datastores such as (Postgres/pgvector, Pinecone, Redis) and designing APIs
- Demonstrated curiosity and hands-on experience with AI tools and applications - using modern AI models, agentic IDEs, or building AI-enabled workflows or prototypes
- A high degree of ownership and initiative, with the ability to operate independently in ambiguous problem spaces

We're looking for a senior engineer with genuine product sense, someone who can sit with a semi-technical analyst, see past the surface-level request, and identify the highest-impact, scalable thing to build. The failure mode we're explicitly hiring against is an engineer who rapidly ships a pile of narrow automations that pick at minor annoyances but don't move the needle. We want sticky, real products that...
