Software Engineer, Trust & Risk at whatnot

This role is ideal for a senior-leaning engineer with at least 4 years of experience building scalable consumer products and a background in Trust, Risk, or Fraud. While the listing is categorized as "Mid-level," the requirement for 7+ years of total experience suggests they are looking for a high-autonomy operator who can write production Python and navigate data warehouses like Snowflake. The compensation is highly competitive ($170k - $230k) and comes with an extensive benefits package, including a 4% 401k match and a unique "dogfooding" budget to shop on the platform. While the company operates with a "remote co-located" philosophy, you must live within commuting distance of their hubs in SF, LA, NYC, or Seattle for in-person collaboration. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have a strong command of Python and experience building event-driven pipelines for real-time threat detection. * Possess "business intuition"—you understand that aggressive fraud prevention shouldn't ruin the experience for honest users. * Are comfortable working with data tools like Snowflake, dbt, or Dagster to track platform integrity. * Thrive in high-growth environments where you move fast, document your work well, and solve problems with minimal oversight.
