Alloy operates in a hybrid-work environment. We look to foster collaboration and community by having our local employees onsite three days a week.
What you'll be doing
Architect and tune customer and channel-partner deployments end-to-end — API integrations, third-party data integrations, SDKs, and latency constraints.
Write production code across our stack: TypeScript, JavaScript (ES6/React), Python (Django), Node.js, PostgreSQL, OpenSearch, and AWS.
Serve as Alloy's credible technical voice with customer engineering leadership, making architectural calls in real time.
Own the engineering track of QBRs for your accounts and serve in their on-call escalation path.
Turn your work into reusable platform primitives and docs, so each deployment makes the next one faster.
Who we’re looking for
5+ years of hands-on experience developing production-ready software, with a proven track record of delivering robust, scalable solutions.
Experience in a customer-facing technical role, Forward Deployed Engineering, solutions engineering with deep technical ownership, or similar - where you were accountable to an external stakeholder, not just an internal roadmap.
Strong backend and API fluency, with the ability to read and write production code across services you don't own.
Sound architectural judgment under ambiguity: you can make and defend technical decisions in the room, with a customer watching.
A genuine pull toward customer-facing work - you find energy in solving a real customer's real problem, alongside their engineers.
A clear technical communicator who can explain a complex integration tradeoff to a bank's VP of Engineering and to an Alloy PM in the same afternoon.
Ability to travel on occasion to our NYC office, as well as client offices in the US.
Nice to have
Experience at a company with a strong Forward Deployed Engineering culture (Palantir, Scale AI, Ramp, Plaid, Stripe, etc.).
Familiarity with identity, fraud, KYC/KYB, or financial services infrastructure.
Experience with SDK development or embedded front-end integrations.
We're a lean team, so your impact will be felt immediately, and opportunities will grow as the company scales up. If this all sounds like a good fit for you, why not join us?
