Job Description:
Coast is re-imagining the trillion-dollar U.S. B2B card payments
infrastructure, with a focus on the country’s 500,000 commercial
fleets, 40 million commercial vehicles, and many million commercial
drivers. The incumbent technologies that cater to these customers
are decades old, and drivers, fleets, and the merchants that serve
them all increasingly demand modern digital experiences and
affordable and transparent financial services products. Coast's
mission is to deliver them at a transformational scale, and to
improve working lives in one of the country’s biggest industry
sectors. The company is backed by top fintech and mobility venture
funds. Coast is competing and winning with software, and we are
building a world-class engineering team. We are looking for
front-end, full-stack, backend, and platform engineers. This is a
unique opportunity to get in on the ground level early on,
contribute and learn in myriad ways, make key decisions, expand
your impact as the business grows, have fun, and learn a ton in the

work in a cross-functional team, meet the velocity needs, and own
the outcome across the whole technology stack is what makes this
role so challenging and rewarding. We iterate quickly, prioritize
learning from our clients, build quality in, and remain ruthlessly
pragmatic. The Senior Full-Stack Engineer will: build product
features end-to-end, from web UI to distributed services back end;
work to evaluate and integrate critical third-party software and
infrastructure including the payments and mobility stacks;
challenge the team to automate, improve process, simplify, raise
the bar for quality; help shape the engineering culture of the
company; have a voice in early technology and implementation
choices. The Senior Full-Stack Engineer must: have 4-10 years

track record of frequent delivery of quality software to
production; have substantial experience with server-side
programming, variety of databases, messaging, REST and APIs in
general, distributed systems; have substantial experience with
modern web development, including TypeScript, design systems,
modern frameworks (e.g. React, Vue, Next.js); have extensive
experience working in cross-functional agile teams in collaboration
with product and design; have deep hands-on knowledge developing
applications in the cloud (preferably AWS); have a proven history
of delivering complex, highly available and scalable distributed
systems; be pragmatic and get stuff done; be passionate about
building amazing products for customers; be able to work
