<p>We launched about three years ago with the basic functionality of a bank, and now we’re refining our product and building out new features.</p> <p> <em>*Mercury is a financial technology company, not a bank. Banking services provided by Choice Financial Group and Evolve Bank &amp; Trust®; Members FDIC.</em> </p> <p>Thankfully, our customers seem to like what we’ve built so far:</p> <p>Technically, we’re working on these challenges:</p> <ul> <li> <strong>Frontend — React, Typescript, Redux:</strong>Creating a beautiful user interface. We iterate on designs and don’t compromise until we have a great product.</li> <li> <strong>Backend — Haskell, Yesod, Persistent:</strong>Integrating with banking services and third party APIs to accurately track financial data and make payments.</li> <li> <strong>Operations — Nix, Postgres, AWS:</strong>Maintaining a stable, secure fleet of servers.</li> <li> <strong>Mobile — Swift, Kotlin:</strong>We have native<a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mercurybanking/id1491984028">iOS</a>and<a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mercury.bank">Android</a>apps.</li> </ul> <p>As a backend engineer, you’ll do things like:</p> <ul> <li>Provide a backend to our mobile and web frontends, to do things like search transactions or send wire transfers</li> <li>Integrate with third party APIs, to do things like send checks or validate SWIFT codes</li> <li>Build admin tools, to do things like identify fraudulent customers or help manage accounts</li> </ul> <p>While you would primarily work with Haskell, you’d preferably learn enough React and TypeScript to construct simple admin pages. The ideal candidate has done full-stack or backend engineering before, and is familiar with or wants to learn about Haskell.</p> <p>Our salary ranges are based on paying competitively for our size and industry, and all employees receive salary + equity + benefits. Individual pay decisions are based on a number of factors, including qualifications for the role, experience level, skillset, and balancing internal equity relative to peers at the company.
