Job description
Software Engineer, San Francisco Hybrid
FT Partners is looking for a skilled Software Engineer who is knowledgeable in building high quality impactful applications and well versed in AI development methodologies. FT Partners is an investment bank headquartered in San Francisco focusing on brokering FinTech transactions. We are looking to bolster our engineering team located in our San Francisco office.
You will be helping build FT Base, our firm's digital backbone which manages our data ecosystem, project lifecycles, AI Agents, and proprietary CRM. It's built in Python, Django (DRF), Typescript, React, PostgreSQL. It's a mission critical application with heavy usage on a constant basis. It also powers an MCP server to provide data and interactivity to employees through enterprise AI tooling.
We are looking for people who can produce stable features without racking up technical debts, and can help organize, consolidate, and strengthen our suite of software for sustained impact.
Qualifications
Experience requirements, either:
2 years as a Software Engineer in a web application environment OR
2 years as a Software Engineer and reputable boot camp certification OR
Computer Science degree (4 year) and some projects or work experience to show
Python, Typescript, APIs, Git and web application system design concepts
Please note: we are unable to offer visa sponsorship for this position.
Key Responsibilities
Immerse yourself in the context and business requirements of each of our system's many functional areas
Execute on instructions to build new things, or improve, refactor, clean up or delete features
Make recommendations on progressing projects you are close to, sometimes in growth, sometimes in simplification, sometimes in aligning with other areas of the system
Help review applications prototyped outside of the engineering department, and help steer, rebuild, or secure these
AI Qualifications
Strong A.I. prompt-driven development abilities, backed by technical understanding
You will need to be able to explain and verify any ai-produced code you submit, on a line by line basis.
Experience overcoming the obstacles that lie beyond the prototype, and instinct toward cohesive organized systems that scale
Ideal Mindset
Responsible and organized. We are not looking for someone to break ground and hand off their problems, we are looking for someone to help funnel ideas into sustainable compatible features
Attentive to detail
Systems minded
Flexible to business pressures and constraints.
Collaborative and team-oriented, understanding the importance of shared success and learning
Open to asking questions, sharing ideas, helping teammates
Eager to adopt new standards and improve upon previous solutions
Cautious of adding unnecessary complexity. And cognizant of maintenance burdens that may be introduced by flashy features. We want the features. But let's make them robust and compatible
Committed to stability through test coverage and writing documentation
Nice to Have
AWS / Cloud Infrastructure Django / Django Rest Framework (DRF)
