Roe  is a hypergrowth startup building Cursor for Financial Crimes. Today, Roe is trusted by multiple public companies representing $400B+ in combined market cap.

We are backed by Y Combinator, Google AI Ventures, Ardent Ventures, the CEO of Snowflake, and senior leaders from LinkedIn and top fintechs.

What you'll do as a Staff Software Engineer:

• Build highly sophisticated agentic products to investigate complex financial crimes. You are essentially building Cursor to catch money launderers, fraudsters and fraud rings.
• Lead the technical designs and team charters.
• Operate as one team: own problems end-to-end, review each other’s code, and move quickly.

What you won’t do

• Bureaucracy. No 3-month approvals to launch a feature.
• Politics. No fighting other teams for headcount or scope.
• Build for the void. We ship what customers actually need.

You may be a great fit if

• You’re a new grad hungry to learn, or an industry veteran tired of red tape and ready to bet on upside.
• You want to learn how to build a startup from the inside.
• You’re comfortable with: Python, Cursor, cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP/Azure), and agent frameworks.
• People describe you as obsessed, curious, and resourceful.

This role isn’t for you if

• You’re looking to rest & vest.
• You can’t commit to intense weeks (we sometimes run 6-day sprints).
• You’re not among the top 5% builders in your network.
• You can’t be in the office 3 days/week (hybrid in SF Bay Area).

Must Requirements

• 4-10 years of software development experience.
• Lead 5-people + projects
• Get along well with PMs and Designers.
• Communicative

Perks & benefits

• Epic offsites (e.g., Napa Valley Wine Train, speed sailing under the Golden Gate Bridge).
• Daily lunch stipend—order what you actually want.
• Medical, dental, vision, and standard insurance.
• Hybrid work: in-office collaboration + focused WFH days.
• Base Salary: $160,000 - $200,000
