Advance is a fintech startup tackling one of the biggest and most painful problems in the insurance industry: money movement, reconciliation, and banking workflows that were never designed for modern scale.
We’re building next-generation vertical banking infrastructure tailored specifically for insurance - combining deep domain understanding, robust financial systems, and AI-driven workflows that automate and simplify what was previously manual, slow, and error-prone.
This is a rare opportunity to work on real financial rails, real customers, and real impact - while pushing the boundaries of how AI is embedded into core banking systems.

We’re looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to play a key role in designing and building the next generation of Advance’s banking platform.
You’ll work on mission-critical systems that move money, manage accounts, and power
intelligent workflows - with AI as a first-class citizen, not an afterthought. This role is highly hands-on and involves close collaboration with product, frontend, and AI engineering.

What You’ll Do
●Design and build core backend services for a vertical banking platform
●Own end-to-end development of scalable, secure, and reliable financial systems
●Develop and integrate AI-driven workflows (e.g. intelligent automation, decisioning, reconciliation, agent-based flows)
●Work extensively with modern AI tools and frameworks to accelerate development and improve system capabilities
●Architect APIs and data models that support complex financial and insurance use cases
●Collaborate closely with frontend engineers on React / Next.js-based applications
●Take part in technical decision-making and help shape the engineering culture and architecture
●Ensure high standards for code quality, observability, security, and performance

Tech Stack (and What You Should Be Comfortable With)
Backend: Python (FastAPI or similar)
Infrastructure & Cloud: AWS (serverless, managed services, IAM, networking)
Databases: PostgreSQL (schema design, performance, migrations)
Frontend familiarity: React + TypeScript, Next.js (you won’t be a frontend engineer, but you’ll work closely with it)
AI & Automation:
○Experience building or integrating AI workflows
○Working with LLMs, agents, or orchestration frameworks
○Strong intuition for where AI adds real value (not just demos)
Bonus: Event-driven systems, payments, banking APIs, or fintech/insurtech experience

What We’re Looking For
●6+ years of experience as a Python engineer
● AWS experience
●AI-native development – BIG ADVANTAGE
●Experience in fintech, banking, payments, or insurance is a strong plus (but not required)
● B2 English
