The Team:
Upstart’s Auto Retail team is on a mission to build the world's best car buying experience. More than $1 trillion of cars are sold each year in the U.S., yet it consistently ranks as one of the worst consumer experiences in America. Join us to help fix that, and make a big impact in one of the world’s largest industries.
As a Software Engineer on the Auto Retail team at Upstart, you will work closely with cross-functional partners to execute projects across the whole stack. You’re a self-starter who delivers work with quality, testability, resiliency, and maintainability in mind. You’ll move efficiently and deliberately to drive both existing and greenfield projects forward, while always keeping our end users in mind.
How you’ll make an impact
- Lead successful projects working collaboratively with engineering team members and cross-functional partners
- Make thoughtful architectural decisions to improve the quality of our software
- Translate complex business requirements into technical plans, and ultimately high quality code
- Drive a culture of technical excellence
What we’re looking for:
- Minimum requirements:
- 4+ years of experience working on SaaS applications
- 3+ years of experience working in a full stack capacity with NodeJS/Typescript/Python backend and React/Angular frontend
- Able to translate complex business requirements into system architecture and technical designs
- Experience in working on medium to large projects through planning, design, implementation, and launch
- Experience contributing to a culture of technical excellence related to quality, availability, and scalability
- Preferred qualifications:
- Experience in building microservices
- Experience in building 3rd party integrations using REST/Soap APIs
- Experience with cloud computing platforms and services such as AWS, Azure, or GCP
Travel requirements - As a digital first company, the majority of your work can be accomplished remotely. The majority of our employees can live and work anywhere in the U.S but are encouraged to to still spend high quality time in-person collaborating via regular onsites. The in-person sessions’ cadence varies depending on the team and role; most teams meet once or twice per quarter for 2-4 consecutive days at a time.
What you'll love:
- Competitive Compensation (base + bonus & equity)
- Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage with Health Savings Account contributions from Upstart
- 401(k) with 100% company match up to $4,500 and immediate vesting and after-tax savings

- Life and disability insurance
- Generous holiday, vacation, sick and safety leave
- Supportive parental, family care, and military leave programs
- Annual wellness, technology & ergonomic reimbursement programs
