Overview
Join to apply for the Software Engineer (Product) role at COLUMN ENGINEERING.
Column is a developer-first bank and software company delivering technology-forward banking solutions to simplify and fix the banking supply chain. This role sits at the heart of that mission as a Product Engineer who builds interfaces, APIs, and backend systems powering how customers interact with the platform.
You'll write TypeScript and React for the dashboard, Go for backend services, and report directly to the CEO while collaborating with the Head of Design on product direction. You'll own the full lifecycle of your work, from spec through deployment, including meeting with customers to understand how projects perform in production. The team is lean, high-trust, and execution-focused, with real autonomy and visibility. If you're excited by technical depth, product intuition, and building critical infrastructure from first principles, you'll thrive here.
This role is San Francisco-based, and you'll be expected to work out of our Presidio-based office 3+ days a week.
