About the Role:

As a Sr Staff Software Engineer on the Gusto Embedded team, you will spearhead the development of a new API product that expands Gusto’s payroll product internationally. You will be responsible for the technical challenges of building a zero to one product: defining the technical roadmap, learning and mentoring engineers, collaborating with cross functional stakeholders and  solving high impact organizational problems such as international money movement. 

If you are passionate about building new products from end to end, we would love to have you join our team.

About the Team:

Gusto Embedded Payroll (GEP) is an API-based solution that empowers software developers to seamlessly embed and customize payroll functionality directly into their platforms. We’ve taken the infrastructure we’ve built servicing tens of millions of paychecks and tens of thousands of tax codes and made it available for software developers. Our vision is to enable any third party developer to build the best payroll product for their end customers.

Here’s what you’ll do day-to-day:

  • Lead the design and development of a new international payroll API product.

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define solutions for nascent challenges, such as working cross functionally with product management, design, customer support.

  • Take ownership of projects, delivering them to meet our high standards of quality. 

  • Act as the technical leader for the team, pioneering solutions and overcoming challenges to innovate and drive the project forward.

Here’s what we're looking for:

  • 10+ years of hands-on experience in software engineering, strong emphasis on Ruby/Rails or lack there of, similar modern frameworks.

  • “Zero to one” experience as tech lead or senior engineer on a project in the business domain.

  • 5+ years experience in a web based SaaS outfit. 

  • Payroll, tax or HR domain experience.

  • Fintech experience with money movement or integrating payment gateways.

Our cash compensation amount for this role is targeted at $191,000/yr to $237,000/yr in Denver & most remote locations, and $225,000/yr to $279,000/yr for San Francisco, Seattle & New York. Stock equity is additional. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors including candidate experience and expertise and may vary from the amounts listed above.
