Senior Software Engineer, Membership Experience

About the role

Chime Engineering is growing rapidly as we scale to support the financial needs of our members. We are looking for driven engineers to join our Membership team, where you'll work across the full stack, building and evolving the features that deepen member engagement, drive retention, and deliver ongoing value through Chime's membership experience. You will own projects end-to-end, from shaping architecture and designing APIs to building polished front-end experiences and maintaining the ongoing health of the code.

In this role, you can expect to

• Design, develop, test, and scale features across backend services and front-end surfaces that power membership benefits, rewards, and engagement experiences

• Build and iterate on APIs and UI components that deliver a seamless, high-quality member experience in Chime's mobile app

• Partner with product, design, data science, and cross-functional stakeholders to understand member needs, define experiments, and ship solutions that move key membership metrics

• Apply a metrics-driven mindset to decision-making and prioritize efforts based on member and business impact

• Proactively identify opportunities to improve system reliability, performance, and scalability across the stack

• Contribute to a culture of technical excellence through mentorship, code reviews, and driving best practices

To thrive in this role, you have

• 5+ years developing software in a production environment at scale

• Proven experience with Ruby on Rails or comparable frameworks

• Proficiency with modern front-end technologies (e.g., React, React Native, or TypeScript-based frameworks)

• A product mindset with a strong bias toward experimentation, iteration, and measuring impact

• A collaborative spirit and strong communication skills, with experience working cross-functionally

• Experience working with transactional databases, caching systems, and API design

• Comfort working across the stack and a desire to understand how all the pieces fit together

• Experience with experimentation frameworks and data-driven product development is a plus
