The Role
 
Pilot is hiring a senior engineer for our newest R&D team, Local Partners.
 
Pilot is a successful startup bringing the back office into the modern era. The Local Partners team is responsible for a new segment of our business: enabling partnerships with entrepreneurs running their own bookkeeping businesses. This team is going to be highly experimental and iterative, and you’ll help build that culture from the ground up.
 
Pilot’s aim historically has been to provide our customers with the same superpowers as large companies with full finance teams superpowers that include having a deep understanding of financial health of the business, the machinery to constantly improve it, and the predictive abilities to thoughtfully plan for the future. We’ve done this for our own customers through powerful software, and we’re now bringing that solution to entrepreneurs.
 
Pilot’s backend is written in fully typed Python 3.11, and our frontend is JavaScript, TypeScript, and Vue.js. We use Terraform to manage our production infrastructure, and deploy Docker containers to ECS. AWS CodeDeploy powers our deployments and we rely on Honeycomb for our monitoring and Postgres as our database.
Key Responsibilities
  • Building, testing and deploying software in a continuous manner (we deploy daily or more often)
  • Working with PMs and Product Designers, and participating in product and design reviews.
  • Creating and contributing to technical specs and testing/rollout plans.
  • Working with internal customers and stakeholders to ensure we’re solving the right problems.
  • Mentoring and sponsoring your teammates to help them grow.
  • Supporting your software and services as required.
About You
Even if you don’t have experience with the specific technologies in our stack, we’d love to talk to you! Our requirements are:
  • 4+ years of experience as a software engineer
  • Able to work collaboratively across functions
  • Strong written, verbal, and technical communication skills
  • Able to write well-structured, well-tested, and maintainable code
  • Demonstrated ability to mentor and teach others
 We have a strong preference for engineers who have experience with Python in production. We are also interested in engineers with specialties or backgrounds in accounting as well as fintech and related fields.
