About the Role:

Engine by Gen partners with leading Financial Institutions to surface the richest, most

comprehensive set of personalized financial product offers to the consumer. We are

looking for an experienced Lead Engineer to support our world-class financial products

marketplace.

We’re looking for a deeply experienced front-end engineer with full-stack fluency who

brings strong judgment and a thoughtful critical perspective. This role is not about

producing baseline code quickly. Modern AI tools can do that. It’s about collaboration,

setting direction, making sound decisions, and driving technical quality. You will leverage AI

agents as force multipliers while maintaining a high bar for correctness, maintainability,

testability, and operational excellence.

Success here depends on engineering judgment—choosing the right solution, not just

producing code.

Key Responsibilities:

- Take Ownership: You’ll be accountable for upholding a high bar for quality through design reviews, code reviews, test strategy, and production readiness.

- Collaborate cross-functionally: Partner with product, design, and fellow engineers to shape solutions, clarify tradeoffs, and deliver reliably.

- Architect for change: Design and build full-stack, frontend-leaning systems that are intentionally small, composable, and resilient to evolving product requirements.

- Improve Performance & Quality: Enforce architectural and operational quality, catching subtle issues that are easy to miss in fast-moving, AI-assisted development.
