Financial fairness for people the system has left behind.
The Role
Lead a 5–7 engineer team owning the React Native platform and shared app surfaces. Partner with product to drive roadmap and architecture, build platform and release infrastructure, champion AI-first engineering practices, and create composable frontend patterns to accelerate multiple product teams.
Summary Generated by Built In

Since our founding, we’ve delivered over $1 billion in funding to more than 1 million customers and saved them over $500 million. At Possible, we’re building a new kind of consumer finance company, one that helps people stay out of debt rather than profit from keeping them in it.
At Possible, we’re building a new type of consumer finance company—one that helps our customers stay out of debt rather than profit from their staying in it. We are a Public Benefit Corporation with the mission to help communities unlock economic mobility through affordable credit products crafted to improve financial health for generations.


The Team

The App Ecosystem team is Possible’s mobile foundation. We own the React Native platform, build and release infrastructure, Expo integration, and every shared surface in the app: authentication, account settings, the multi-product dashboard, and the core component library. We’re a small, high-leverage team that makes every product team faster.


The Role

This is a leadership role for someone who wants to shape what mobile looks like at a fintech company in the middle of a major product evolution. You’ll manage a team of 5 to 7 engineers and partner with a Principal PM to define the roadmap, drive architectural decisions, and build the platform every product team ships on.

This is not a maintenance role. You’ll be pushing the boundaries of what our app can do for customers, establishing AI-first engineering practices across your team, and building composable frontend patterns from the ground up.


What You’ll Bring
  • Proven experience managing software engineers, with a track record of developing talent and retaining it

  • Deep technical fluency in React Native or a comparable mobile framework; you can lead architecture decisions, not just approve them

  • Active, opinionated use of AI tools in your own workflow, and experience driving AI adoption across a team

  • Experience leading a platform team that serves multiple product teams, balancing shared quality with product velocity

  • A bias toward shaping direction from a blank page rather than waiting for one to appear


Our Values in This Role
  • Act with Ownership

  • To Lead is to Serve

  • Scientific Approach


Compensation

$197,800 to $215,000, plus meaningful stock options, a bonus plan, comprehensive benefits, and commuter benefits.


Hybrid in Seattle: Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday in-office.
With the backing of our venture investors— Union Square Ventures, Canvas Ventures, Euclidean Capital, and Unlock Venture Partners — a dedicated following of hundreds of thousands of customers, and an extraordinary team, we are unwavering in our fight for financial fairness. As one of only a few FinTech Public Benefit Corporations, we’ve baked our dual dedication to building a profitable and socially impactful company into our charter; we only succeed when our customers do too. Give us a shout if you’d like to help us ship financial products that protect consumers from predatory lending practices and promote economic health.


Possible Finance is dedicated to financial fairness and community empowerment. We welcome diverse perspectives and experiences to help us achieve our mission of unlocking economic mobility for generations to come.

What We Do

Possible Finance is on a mission to make financial health possible for everyone. We build products for the millions of Americans who live paycheck to paycheck, face unpredictable income, or can't get a fair shot from traditional banks and credit systems — people who are routinely ignored or penalized by mainstream financial institutions. That's why our products are designed differently. We offer a growing suite of short-term and installment credit options with clear terms, flexible repayment, and no predatory fees. And because a credit score alone doesn't tell the full story, we underwrite using cash-flow and behavioral data, giving people access to credit when others won't. We take a compliance-forward approach to everything we build. In a highly scrutinized industry where many competitors struggle or shut down, designing products that protect customers and hold up to regulatory standards isn't a constraint. It's how we earn trust and stay in the game long-term. Since founding in 2017 in Seattle, we've served over 1.5 million customers and funded more than $1 billion in loans. And we're just getting started — expanding our products, serving more customers, and pushing further every day to end the debt cycle and help more people unlock economic mobility. Come build with a team of mission-driven colleagues and do the most meaningful work of your career.

Why Work With Us

Traditional financial institutions weren't built for the customers we serve — and it shows. Possible was created with those customers in mind: fair underwriting, transparent products, and a genuine commitment to their financial wellbeing. We believe access to credit shouldn't be limited to a select few — and we're actually doing something about it.
