The Team

As a member of our Servicing Engineering team, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring smooth loan management, optimizing collections, and cultivating strong customer relationships. Our team's primary objective is to develop a cutting-edge loan servicing platform, introduce business process automation, enhance efficiency, and deliver an intuitive user experience for both borrowers and internal stakeholders.

As a Senior Software Engineer at Upstart, you’re a leader who can work across the whole stack, who doesn’t need roads paved for you before you take action. You’re an individual contributor who uses tech to ply your craft, but you excel at thinking like a product manager and a business owner when needed. You can handle high-stakes calls with 3rd parties and customers, and you thrive on making decisions that impact not just how we build but what we build. Finally, you’re a mentor, and you take seriously the responsibility to coach and grow each of the engineers around you.

How you’ll make an impact :

• Lead successful cross-team and / or multi-quarter, multi-engineer projects
• Move quickly to drive both existing and greenfield projects forward, while always keeping our end users in mind
• Proactively search out ways to expand impact that extends well beyond the Jira board
• Turn team-specific projects into opportunities to up-level the team and the org’s tech platform
• Help us continue building our engineering team and keep Upstart a genuinely awesome place to work

What we’re looking for :

5+ years of professional software development experience

Experience designing, developing, and deploying microservices-based applications

Travel requirements As a digital first company, the majority of your work can be accomplished remotely. The majority of our employees can live and work anywhere in the U.S but are encouraged to to still spend high quality time in-person collaborating via regular onsites. The in-person sessions’ cadence varies depending on the team and role; most teams meet once or twice per quarter for 2-4 consecutive days at a time.
