Job Description

**_We are not working with external recruiting partners at this time, please
apply directly to the role if you have further interest in joining Vise_**

Engineering at Vise has the unique opportunity to use technology to
revolutionize the investment industry. Team members are given ownership and
trust with the understanding that they are supported by industry experts and
together can build a best-in-class product. We are a small and fast-paced team
where everyone has a voice in the development of our product and technology.

As a senior full-stack software engineer, you will play a flexible role across
our product—working on everything from our core portfolio creation engine to
our trading system to our client-facing web application. You will have
significant ownership and will have the opportunity to impact everything from
requirements gathering and designing systems to implementation, release, and
monitoring. This is a high visibility technical leadership role with a
tremendous opportunity to impact the company’s trajectory.

**What you will do**

* Lead the implementation of the systems that power and scale our business
* Uncover and address system bottlenecks as we mature our tech stack
* Partner with the Product team to provide impactful, measurable and testable solutions for our customers
* When appropriate, coach and mentor engineers on best practices
* Advocate for best in class technology and tooling to improve the development experience
* Contribute to operational excellence

**What you will bring on Day 1**

* 5+ years of software development experience outside of education and internships
* Experience with backend and frontend languages. Our stack includes Python, Golang, TypeScript, so direct experience working with these is a big plus.
* Experience with React and a familiarity with the latest frontend frameworks and tools
* Experience with relational databases — we use Postgres.
* Firm understanding of data structures, algorithms, and software design
* Strong analytical and debugging skills
* Effective interpersonal, communication, and collaboration skills with proven problem solving abilities

**These would be great to have, but we’re sure you can learn this on the job
here**

* Prior work experience with financial data, investment tools and/or markets
* Familiarity with Airflow or an equivalent pipeline management system.

**Our stack:**

* Python, Postgres, Express, TypeScript, Node, React, Redux, and AWS

Through the internal and market data Vise has collected, we expect the salary
range for this position to be $180,000 - $250,000 per year, plus a competitive
equity package. Your actual compensation will be determined based on your
skills, qualifications, and experience. In addition, Vise offers a wide range
of comprehensive and inclusive employee benefits.

### **About Vise:**

Vise is an artificial intelligence (AI) powered asset management platform
designed specifically for financial advisors to build, manage and explain
personalized portfolios. In today's world, AI is driving personalization
across various industries, enhancing the way we shop, consume content, and
engage with technology. Embracing this trend, Vise is leading the charge to
bring this level of personalization to how we invest. Vise ushers in Wealth

advisor, doing trading, rebalancing, and managing client portfolios fully
automated on the advisor's behalf; Vise charges an AUM fee for its services.
