About North
The public cloud is rapidly evolving, with businesses investing over $200B annually in cloud technology. As AI accelerates demand for scalable infrastructure, cloud costs continue to rise—yet most teams still rely on spreadsheets to manage them.
At North, we’re building the next-generation cloud spend management platform. We provide real-time visibility, control, and automation over cloud finances, enabling companies to scale efficiently without wasting time or money.
Backed by top-tier investors and trusted by global customers like Brave, The New York Public Library, and SumUp, we’re assembling a world-class engineering team to redefine how businesses manage cloud infrastructure.
If you're early in your engineering career and want to work on real systems, ship production code, and grow quickly in a fast-moving startup environment, North is the place to be.
About The Role
We're looking for a Software Engineer to join our product team and help build the features that power the financial operating system of the future. This is a hands-on engineering role where you'll create new features, maintain and evolve existing ones, and help shape the architectures that support our product as it scales.
We care a lot about writing code that scales and can be reused across the entire organization — not just shipped once and forgotten. You'll work in a fast-moving environment with multiple projects running in parallel. In the near term, you'll need to be flexible, jumping onto whatever feature or topic the team needs most. Over time, as the engineering organization grows, you'll become part of a team that owns a specific product or product line.
If you're someone who wants to grow, take on more ownership, sharpen your craft, and have real impact on a product that allows other engineers across the world build more efficiently this is a great opportunity for you.
What You'll Do
- Build product features that help manage half a billion dollars of annual spend and save customers millions of dollars per month
- Design, build, and maintain Python micro-services that power core product functionality
- Handle data efficiently at runtime, making thoughtful decisions about performance, memory, and latency
- Build well-structured service layers, libraries, and abstractions that other teams can reuse across the organization
What We're Looking For
Nice to Have
- Outstanding recognition in competitions, awards, or business ventures
- Experience in a startup or fast-moving environment
- Familiarity with FinOps concepts or financial data
- Experience owning a product or product line end to end
- Built systems that scaled rapidly with user growth
