Sample interview questions
I start by clarifying the user outcome and defining API, data-model, and interface requirements. I deliver the work in small vertical slices, add automated tests at each layer, validate behavior with stakeholders, and monitor the release so issues can be addressed quickly.
I would define a canonical data model, use idempotent operations and stable external identifiers, and make transformations explicit and testable. I would also implement retries with backoff, observability, reconciliation workflows, clear error states, and audit logging to protect data quality and support operations.
I consider team conventions, existing services, library support, deployment complexity, and runtime requirements. Node.js is often productive for API and product-adjacent services using shared TypeScript expertise, while Go can be a strong fit for concurrent, performance-sensitive, or operationally simple services; consistency and maintainability are key.
I focus on the smallest solution that safely delivers the customer value while preserving clear interfaces, tests for critical behavior, and observability. I document deliberate shortcuts, prioritize follow-up work based on risk, and avoid cutting corners around data integrity, security, or production reliability.
I would first scope the affected customers, records, and time window, then inspect logs, metrics, event history, and recent deployments. I would trace the data through ingestion, transformation, persistence, and outbound sync steps, identify whether the issue is systemic or record-specific, communicate status clearly, and use a safe replay or reconciliation process after fixing the root cause.
About Us
The financial advisory industry is a $80T market in the US, but has seen little technological innovation compared to the self-service market (Robinhood, Betterment, Wealthfront, SoFi). Client data management is a universally painful and expensive problem for financial advisors. Today, advisors manually collect, update, and utilize client data across the 7-10 software tools that they use to run their business. Data transcription and translation across systems is time-consuming and error-prone, leading to costly inefficiencies and embarrassing client-facing problems. Managing data access control, audit logs, and compliance is a constant challenge, particularly in larger organizations.
We are building the first wealth tech data orchestration company. We sync client data across a financial advisor’s tech stack, unlocking the efficiency of a fully-integrated software suite with the choice of tools that best fit their business. We are laser-focused on enabling the best technology experiences for advisors and unlocking the potential of the entire wealth tech software ecosystem. We’re an experienced team of start-up operators with deep roots in both tech and advisory. You can learn more about us on our website.
Role Details
Role overview:
We’re looking for a fullstack engineer to build features across our platform. You’ll own end-to-end delivery of product workflows, working across frontend interfaces and backend services to help financial advisors manage client data seamlessly across their tech stack.
Where you’ll make an impact:
Build and ship features end-to-end, working across React, Node.js and Golang.
Develop user-facing workflows including data collection forms, reporting interfaces, and account management experiences that handle complex financial data.
Implement backend APIs and services that power our data syncing and orchestration capabilities, ensuring reliable data flow across systems.
Write well-tested, maintainable code and participate in code reviews, contributing to the team’s technical quality and standards.
Collaborate with Product, Design, and other engineers to break down requirements, identify technical approaches, and deliver solutions efficiently.
Debug and resolve production issues across the stack, ensuring system reliability for our customers.
Requirements:
4-6 years of fullstack engineering experience with exposure to both frontend and backend development.
Solid fundamentals in web development, including JavaScript/TypeScript, modern frontend frameworks (React preferred), API design, and working with databases.
Comfortable working across the full stack – you may have a preference but can contribute effectively on both frontend and backend work.
Collaborative mindset and strong communication skills – you work effectively with teammates and ask good questions when you need clarity.
Eager to learn and grow your technical skills – you’re curious about new technologies and open to feedback.
Self-directed and capable of owning features with minimal oversight, while knowing when to ask for input or guidance.
Bias toward shipping and iteration – you balance getting things done with building things well.
You’ll stand out if you have:
Experience building B2B SaaS products or working in fintech/financial services.
Exposure to building integrations, working with third-party APIs, or data transformation pipelines.
Background at startups where you had to wear multiple hats and ship features independently.
Experience with testing frameworks and writing automated tests for both frontend and backend code.
Interest in using AI tools to improve your development workflow and productivity.
Our tech stack: React, TypeScript, Node.js, Fastify, Golang, PostgreSQL
