Our mission is to ensure Narmi's products power the goals and objectives of the financial institutions we serve. We do this by building targeted features and prototypes in the field, then partnering with Narmi's core product and engineering teams to scale those solutions from 1 to n. You’ll have real influence on how development work gets scoped, how FDE best practices evolve, and what feedback reaches core engineering about the configurability of the platform. Being a self-starter with strong intuition for where impact lives and having a creative approach to problem-solving is what makes people successful here. We believe the best work happens when great people build together in the same room, so we’re an in-person–first team. Typically, you’ll work from Narmi’s Flatiron office about three days per week, with flexibility to work remotely when needed. ## What You’ll Do - Solve novel technical challenges alongside our customers: work with financial institutions to understand their unique use cases and technical constraints, then design and implement creative solutions within our platform. - Build new platform functionality: contribute alongside the dedicated pod to broader platform development work. - Identify product gaps through customer interactions, and build features and prototypes that extend our existing APIs to better meet client needs. - Build the v0 when a problem needs solving quickly, then work with the rest of engineering to re-architect it over time to optimize for scale. - Automate recurrent FI workflows and create scalable systems and tools that address customer pain points at the root. - Take the lead on working with financial institutions to identify solutions to problems for the Platform team. - Partner with Customer Success, Implementations, Product, and Engineering to build internal tools and automations that streamline their workflows. ## What You’ll Bring - 1+ years of relevant, post-college professional experience. - Strong engineering background in Computer Science, Mathematics, or another engineering or scientific discipline. - Strong coding proficiency in one or more of the following: Python (especially Django or DRF), JavaScript (specifically NodeJS), React. - Ability to develop creative solutions to a wide variety of technical challenges and learn new subject matter quickly. - Capability to explain complex technical concepts with clarity and simplicity, whether to an engineer or an executive. - Passion for understanding customer problems and quickly delivering scalable solutions. - Eagerness to solve problems, build from the ground up, and engage with all areas of the organization. - Curiosity about the different functions at a startup, from customer engagement to product development and partner integrations. - Based in New York City or willing to relocate; comfortable with occasional client travel. - Authorized to work in the United States. ## Nice to Have - Familiarity with financial services, core banking systems (Symitar, COCC DNA, IBS, Finastra, Corelation), or fintech compliance workflows. - Hands-on experience building with LLMs and agentic systems. - Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred), including serverless and IaC. - Background in forward deployed, implementation, or other customer-facing engineering roles. ## Applying to this role This Software Engineer - Forward Deployed role at Narmi runs through the firm's own careers portal and expects a CV and cover letter written specifically for the posting, not a portable submission carried across firms. Jorb AI's application agent tailors a CV and cover letter from your background to this posting and tracks the role alongside the rest of your applications.
