About the role
We're hiring a Senior Staff Engineer to serve as a Technical Lead across multiple pods in the Money Group – Gusto's fastest-growing organization and a cornerstone of the company's transformation into the Small Business Finance Platform.
You'll leverage deep domain expertise to help shape the technical vision for systems that power consumer and business financial health including financial accounts, money movement, lending, expense controls, etc.
This role spans strategy and execution: guiding architectural direction across a group of 15-20 engineers, vetting external partners, prototyping new product lines to unblock product decisions, extracting services from our monolith, and mentoring the engineers around you.
Responsibilities
Serve as a Technical Lead across multiple pods in the Money Group – setting architectural direction, unblocking engineers, and ensuring high-quality delivery aligned with long-term goals.
Help define the technical vision for your domain areas within the Money Group, and own the shorter-term projects that move us toward it.
Contribute to the architecture connecting Gusto's People Stack and Finance Stack, owning the pieces within your teams' domains.
Lead service migration from a large Ruby-on-Rails monolith into a service-oriented architecture, defining clean domain boundaries across money movement, lending, and tax.
Manage a complex partner ecosystem, including leading technical due diligence in vendor evaluation.
Build prototypes and proof-of-concepts to de-risk new ideas and unblock product decisions quickly.
Tackle complex, ambiguous problems.
Requirements
Deep domain expertise in financial systems, payments, lending, or related areas.
Experience with Ruby on Rails and service-oriented architecture.
Strong leadership and mentoring skills.
Ability to work across strategy and execution.
Conditions
Competitive base pay, benefits, and equity (RSUs).
Hybrid work in Denver, San Francisco, or New York.
