Job description

Your Impact

As a Staff Engineer at Weel, you will be a key technical contributor working across our full stack to deliver high-quality, scalable solutions that support the needs of modern finance teams.

This is a senior individual contributor role for someone who wants to stay hands-on in software engineering, shape technical direction, and influence architectural decisions without direct people management responsibilities.

You will work closely with product managers, designers, and engineers to solve meaningful problems, deliver new product capabilities, mentor through code and design reviews, and raise the technical bar.

Your impact will be measured by the quality of your solutions, the performance of the systems you build, and the example you set across the team.

  • Serve as the go-to technical partner for product managers, offering strategic guidance and owning deep expertise in your product domain.

  • Provide thoughtful feedback on architecture, technical designs, and code reviews
  • Debug complex issues and take ownership of the solutions you ship
  • Contribute to improving development workflows, tooling, and automation
