About the Role:
As a Staff Product Mobile Engineer, you will play a key role in architecting and building user-facing mobile experiences that evolve Gusto’s personal finance platform. Operating across native iOS and Android environments, you will leverage modern declarative frameworks (SwiftUI and Jetpack Compose), a shared GraphQL API layer, and AI-native workflows to deliver seamless end-to-end features. Your work will focus on improving financial tools for everyday employees, helping them reduce financial stress, build healthy money habits, and gain greater control over their paychecks. You will collaborate with a talented cross-functional team, contributing technical leadership throughout the product development lifecycle—from ideation and architecture to release and long-term scaling.
About the Team:
The Consumer Money team is on a mission to help employees achieve financial peace of mind by bridging employment and personal finances. The team's product suite gives workers complete control over their money—including on-demand pay, high-yield cash accounts, and automated savings—all anchored to the paycheck relationship Gusto uniquely powers.
Operating as one of the fastest-growing engines within Gusto Money, the team builds at a fast, startup-like pace. Beyond scaling core worker-facing products, the team is actively incubating 0-to-1 foundational technologies to power Gusto’s broader financial platform vision. Handling people’s livelihoods in a regulated banking space requires combining rapid innovation with deep technical rigor, system reliability, and an uncompromised focus on user experience. This role represents a high-impact opportunity to help shape the future of personal and platform finance at Gusto.
