Software Engineer

Our engineering team is here to power the software ecosystem to disrupt one of the most outdated and regulated spaces in the financial sector - the mortgage industry. We’ve built out the foundation of a modern mortgage servicing platform that can accurately handle billions of dollars at scale, but we’re just getting started. At Valon, we want you to do the best work of your life. You'll be surrounded by a tight-knit community of exceptional people from places like Stripe, Jane Street, Meta, and Google who care deeply about their work and each other. Our problem space is complex, but you’ll get a lot of autonomy so that you can learn quickly, execute effectively, and deliver the highest level of business impact. Our tech stack is built on Python, React, Docker, Kubernetes, and Google Cloud Platform.

Our headquarters are in New York City, and this year, we’re excited to open a new office in San Francisco. Plus, we fully support remote work!
