Job Description

At Level, we believe using your benefits should be as easy as buying a cup of coffee.

Level is a B2B2C fintech company comprised of a diverse team from industry-leading companies like Square, Oscar, Google, Uber, and Airbnb.

• Full-stack software engineering (leaning mostly back-end).
• Design and build scalable real-time systems to solve problems that increase access to benefits.
• Produce detailed component designs, and core interface and API designs. Implement and optimize designed solutions, and enhance them with new features.
• Ingest external static data to support Level’s card processing and operational requirements.
• Build, monitor and manage pipelines to ensure data quality.
• Work cross-functionally with product, operations and data teams to realize and launch Level's products.

Who You Are:

• 3+ years of software engineering experience handling big data.
