A Little Bit About Us: You might know us from our founder and CEO, Dave Ramsey, who’s given no-nonsense money advice on the radio since 1992. Three decades later, Ramsey Solutions is a household name in personal finance, with a mission to change the toxic money culture for good.

Our Mission: Ramsey Solutions provides biblically based, commonsense education and empowerment that give HOPE to everyone in every walk of life.

• Dependent care FSA
• Tons of cultural activities, like weekly devotional, leadership development courses, Battle of the Bands, and one epic Christmas party!

Where and How You’d Work:

Ramsey Solutions Headquarters is located just outside of Nashville in Franklin, Tennessee. We value our strong, unified company culture because we believe the best work is done together. That’s why all of our team members work on-site under the same roof. But work-life balance is also important to us, so we offer flexible work schedules to take the stress out of appointments, family obligations and other needs that may pop up.

While every team member has a designated workspace (with an electronic sit-stand desk), our campus was designed to house a variety of unique work and play zones (e.g., quiet library space, coffee bar/lounge areas, recreational game zone, and outside/patio work and break areas).

What You’d Do in This Role:

We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer familiar with architecture and design that can clear the way for other engineers, helping our team further pursue our mission of creating digital products, providing hope to others in every walk of life. You will be responsible for tackling complex technical challenges, and mentoring fellow engineers, all while developing deep business and domain knowledge across our products. This person needs to be a natural born leader. Someone who is a tone setter and can provide proactive business solutions through the use of technology and a positive mindset around tackling the business challenges at hand.

You’re Probably a Match If:

• You have 7 years of software engineering experience
• You have strong backend development skills, with experience in Ruby, Kotlin, Java, or similar languages (preferred, not required)
• You have desire to work in the code daily
• You have previous experience leading processes and mentoring other engineers
• You have excellent problem-solving skills, love teamwork, and have a positive approach toward overcoming business challenges
• You have a willingness to develop business acumen and domain knowledge in our products

What Winning Looks Like: 

• Cadences within the immediate team on the software delivery lifecycle.
• Building and improving upon effective software engineering standards for the team
• Architecting scalable systems that accelerate delivery while increasing resiliency and reliability
• Continually learning and growing in the latest engineering best practices
• Working primarily within backend/ full stack code of React frontend, Kotlin, Ruby, and Java backend, as well as CRM integration work.
• Consistently deliver high-quality software solutions with a focus on integration testing, documentation, and shareability
• Addressing technical challenges and solving problems that will help stretch your skillset and experience
• Participating in user interviews to identify customer problems and apply domain knowledge to develop technical solutions
• Actively mentor and support fellow engineers, helping them enhance their skills
• Collaborating with a positive mindset, helping the team see and overcome business challenge

Other Stuff to Know:

We’re looking for people who are passionate about our mission. This isn’t just a J-O-B. We experience resistance every day because what we believe is absolutely countercultural. We actually hate debt. We actually cut up our credit cards . . . like, for real. Some of us are still fighting our way out of debt, but we aren’t going back.
