Role
Who you are
- This role requires robust expertise in mobile app development, a proven track record of shipping digital products at scale, and a relentless commitment to customer satisfaction. Flutter experience is strongly preferred, but not strictly required
- The ideal candidate is both forward-thinking and hands-on, has a strong sense of ownership and delivery, and is a good mentor and co-worker
- Bachelor’s OR Master's degree (ideally in a technical field), but we understand great engineers come from a variety of backgrounds; we will also consider relevant work experience
- 4+ years mobile programming experience (iOS OR Android OK, but Flutter strongly preferred)
- Experience with Git-based distributed version control systems
- Familiarity with Agile-based project development in a microservices environment
- Experience with designing and consuming backend APIs for mobile applications
- Test-driven development skills
- Passion for solving complex problems
- Strong collaboration abilities
Desirable

- Previous experience building platform-level frameworks and components in a large codebase

What the job involves
- We are looking for a Flutter Engineer with a natural inclination to solve complex problems across the company
- You will play a pivotal role in our mobile app, shaping the future of SoFi’s home screen and other core experiences
- As a SoFi Flutter Engineer, you’ll be in the middle of it all. You’ll work across functional and organizational boundaries to ship new features, improve our system architecture, squash bugs, and hone your technical skills
- At SoFi, collaboration between Product, Design, and Engineering is key. You’ll be involved throughout the entire product lifecycle – from ideation to deployment, iteration, and beyond – working alongside an all-star team of talented engineers
- Produce well-designed, scalable, and reusable code on schedule
- Independently design and build large features, breaking work into subtasks where necessary
- Maintain a high bar in code and design reviews in accordance with modern mobile development practices
- Drive communication across the development team and with other stakeholders
- Collaborate across functions and teams to reduce ambiguity and keep projects on track
- Track project performance against defined milestones/goals
- Mentor junior engineers throughout the organization
- Create and improve technical documentation
Our take
SoFi started by offering ways for students to secure better financial terms on their loans, and now offers a huge range of personal finance products, including bank accounts, loans, mortgages, investment advice, and investment opportunities. Many customers find they have to go to multiple financial service providers to meet all their finance needs, but SoFi overcomes this issue by putting it all in one place.
Its goal, to cover all the financial bases, sets it apart from many of the traditional banks and even some of their digital competitors, such as Avant, which has chosen to focus on providing credit alternatives. Although it is operating in a competitive market with a lot of big players such as Monzo, Revolut, and Starling, the company has managed to raise huge amounts of funding to support its rapid expansion.
SoFi has focussed on global expansion, moving outside the US, and has made a series of acquisitions to support this - including a Hong Kong-based investment app called 8 Securities. After going public on the New York Stock Exchange via a SPAC merger in June 2021, the company has continued to evolve and release more mission-oriented services into its roster, and strengthened its lending capabilities through a $350 million post-IPO loan. To date, the company has sold over $15 billion in personal loan collateral and continues to strengthen its offering.
