Company mission
To empower people to live their best financial lives.
Role
Who you are
- You have 5+ years of professional experience working with some combination of Node/TypeScript, React, GraphQL, and Postgres (or similar relational database)
- You're both a student and a teacher, continually seeking to grow as an engineer and help those around you grow as well
- You're not just interested in what you're building, but also why you're building it. You want to see the bigger picture of how the software you're building is benefitting our users
- Experience with our stack (TypeScript, React Native, PostgreSQL) is a plus
- You understand observability and enjoy digging into the details to solve performance and user experience issues
- You thrive in a growing organization, and are not afraid of a challenging problem. In fact, you confront problems head on and take the lead on the solution
What the job involves
- Team Insight's mission is to support the personal finance features that make Rocket Money an integral part of our members’ everyday financial journey
- Whether it’s tracking their spending, analyzing their recurring bills and subscriptions, or managing their transactions, Team Insight’s goal is to build incredible interfaces (and the backend services that power them) that make it easy for our members to understand their financial habits
- Team Insight owns the core personal finance features that all of our members use
- If you’re excited about building highly scalable features that work on the scale of millions of monthly active users, this is the team for you
- Work alongside a team to implement, iterate, and debug product features that drive forward both the company and the user
- Own projects from end to end, making key decisions in the implementation of new features that balance technical concerns with business concerns
- Develop with TypeScript across the stack, building user interfaces using React Native and the backend support required to power them with Node & GraphQL
- Be a steward of good user experience, ensuring that the interfaces we present our users are performant, understandable, and delightful
- Help to maintain our high technical bar, participating in code reviews and design discussions to ensure that we're applying appropriate rigor to our software development process
- Develop an understanding of our users to build and measure features which help them better understand and improve their finances
Our take
Managing finances has become increasingly difficult in the last couple of decades, despite access to online banking and other financial apps. The mass of subscriptions, standing orders and utility bills the average American is subject to ultimately makes it difficult to assess and manage their finances within one place.
Rocket Money (formerly Truebill) provides a mobile application that includes a variety of tools that aim to simplify financial management. Tools include an automatic subscription tracker which aims to increase transparency and simplicity for canceling unwanted subscriptions, in addition to monthly spending analytics and budgeting plans.
Whilst there seems to be an app for just about every form of financial management, Rocket Money has taken much-needed action by unifying everything into a single app. Whilst the company initially focused on financial management tools, it's now branched out to more direct financial tools such as utility bill comparison services, autopilot saving and paycheque advance loans.
