Senior Backend Software Engineer

S.T.E.P.

Senior Backend Software Engineer

Step's mission is to improve the financial future of the next generation. Millions of people use our banking and borrowing products to manage, build, and grow their money. Now that we're part of Beast Industries – the company behind MrBeast – we're poised for a new phase of growth to deliver financial literacy and tools at massive scale.

The role Step is looking for a Senior Backend Software Engineer. What you'll do:

  • Own features throughout their life cycle, from inception to production
  • Improve existing and develop new Kotlin services
  • Prioritize maintainable code and test all the things
  • Work in a small, tight-knit cross-functional team
  • See your contributions make a weekly impact to an evolving product

What we're looking for:

  • 6+ years of experience in backend development
  • Strong Computer Science fundamentals
  • Passion for software quality
  • Experience designing, building, and maintaining scalable and reliable distributed systems

Some of the technologies we use:

  • Kotlin
  • gRPC Protocol Buffers
  • Dagger
  • Postgres
  • JOOQ
  • BigQuery
  • Kubernetes
  • Terraform

How we're different:

We stand for the side hustlers, the creators, the freelancers, and the investors — people who are not afraid to take on challenges, especially when it comes to their finances. Step is focused on disrupting the banking industry by delivering a differentiated, mobile-first consumer experience, and we operate like the customers we serve: customer obsessed, acting as owners, moving with urgency, and breaking the norm.

Step is a wholly owned subsidiary of Beast Industries, the media and entertainment company founded by Jimmy Donaldson (MrBeast), the most-watched person in the world. Beast Industries spans digital media, consumer products, philanthropy, and new ventures, with an audience reach no consumer company has ever had — and Step is tasked with turning that reach into financial literacy and tools for the next generation at massive scale. With Beast's distribution and brand behind it, Step is positioned to scale significantly over the next 12 months, and joining now means helping shape that trajectory from the inside.

Step is a remote-first company building banking for the next generation. We offer competitive compensation and stock options, generous medical, dental, vision, and company-paid life insurance, a 401k plan with Safe Harbor company matching, a flexible vacation policy and paid company holidays, 12 weeks paid parental leave with flexible return to work, and a company-provided technology package.

If you're looking to join a fast-growing company with a strong mission and vision that puts people first, we want to meet you! Step is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other status protected by applicable federal, state, or local law. Step is committed to providing reasonable accommodations to qualified individuals with disabilities throughout the application and interview process. If you need an accommodation, please let us know at View email address on click.appcast.io and we'll work with you to provide appropriate support.
