What are the responsibilities and job description for the Software Engineer (Product) position at Column?
About Column
For companies building financial technology and transforming the financial services space, the biggest bottleneck to their growth and innovation is often the underlying banks and infrastructure stack they rely on. We have spent our careers founding and scaling companies like Plaid, Square, SoFi, Blend, and Affirm, and have seen this problem firsthand — builders and developers needing to partner with traditional banks, and creating API and abstraction layers over the patchwork that is the bank, its core, and many other vendors. All of this results in a complex (and often expensive) banking supply chain involving a user, fintech, BaaS middleware provider, bank, core and the Federal Reserve.
Ensure you read the information regarding this opportunity thoroughly before making an application.
At Column, we set out to simplify and fix this. We are a bank and a software company built from the ground up, offering builders and developers technology-forward banking solutions that cut out the hundreds of vendors, middleware providers, and abstraction layers. This means a safer, more transparent, and less costly banking supply chain. Come build with us!
The opportunity :
You’ll be crossing the divide between our front-end and back-end engineering stacks. You’ll be responsible for writing TypeScript for our React-based dashboard and diving into Golang on our backend. You’ll be writing APIs and integrating into a variety of third party services. Ideally you should have experience with TypeScript, a strongly typed back-end programming language (experience with Golang is a plus but not required), and be comfortable with SQL databases. We generally prefer candidates with at least five years of production experience.
This role is San Francisco-based, and you’ll be expected to work out of our (awesome) Presidio-based office 3 days a week.
What you’ll need to be successful :
Demonstrated expertise in TypeScript. React experience is ideal but not required.
Proven experience with a strongly typed back-end language, coupled with proficiency in SQL.
A track record of making independent product decisions and exhibiting strong self-management skills.
Preferably, you should have experience or a keen interest in engaging with external customers to gather direct product feedback.
What you’ll get from us :
Comprehensive health, dental, and vision plans, including options that are 100% covered by Column for you and 50% covered for your dependents.
FSA and HSA account options to enable use of pre-tax money for medical and dependent care expenses.
401k plan, including self-directed brokerage options.
Flexible time-off policy - take the time off that you want and need to relax and recharge.
100% paid parental leave, including 16 weeks for birth mothers, 12 weeks for primary caregivers, and 8 weeks for secondary caregivers.
Catered lunches and dinners for SF employees.
Commuter benefits.
Regular team building events, including annual offsite.
Pay transparency :
The annual US base salary range for this role is $130,000-200,000, exclusive of equity compensation and benefits.
This salary range may be inclusive of several career levels at Column, and will be narrowed during the interview process based on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the candidate’s skill sets, experience, licensure and certifications, location, and other business and organizational needs. Posted salary ranges reflect base salary only, exclusive of equity and other compensation and benefits.
