Why Casca?
Casca is building AGI for banking. We’re replacing decades-old legacy systems with AI-native technology that automates 90% of the manual work humans once had to do.
What you'll do:
Projected Division of Responsibilities: Roughly 70% contributing high-quality code and 30% collaborating with stakeholders and supporting your team.
- Own the Lifecycle: Take deep pride in end-to-end component ownership, from initial technical scoping and architecture to deployment, observability, and long-term maintenance.
- Deliver with Pragmatism: Act as a "master of scope" by understanding the "why" behind features. You will propose technical shortcuts or alternative implementations to deliver core value faster, avoiding "complexity for complexity's sake".
- Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Work tightly with customers and product managers to break down complex features into actionable tasks, proactively surfacing edge cases and technical trade-offs before writing code.
- Elevate the Team: While primarily focused on independent delivery, you will amplify the team’s throughput through rigorous code reviews, sharing best practices, and actively unblocking peers.
- Build for Reliability: Ensure your updates are robust and integrate seamlessly into the broader Casca architecture. You will implement observability and automated testing to ensure your components run reliably in production.
Our tech stack: TypeScript, React, NextJS, Postgres with Prisma, Python, AWS.
What you'll bring:
- Seasoned Expertise: 5+ years of software engineering experience with a proven track record of delivering significant projects in production SaaS environments.
- Startup Resilience: Recent experience (last 2–4 years) in fast-paced, high-velocity environments where you had to "lead from the front" and manage high-stakes trade-offs.
- Technical Mastery: Deep experience in web application development using relational databases and a quality-first mentality that results in clear, efficient, and low-defect code.
- Architectural Maturity: The ability to anticipate scaling challenges without over-engineering, building exactly what is needed for current scale while keeping code adaptable.
- Integrity & Alignment: A commitment to the "honorable businessperson" ideal—prioritizing transparency, honesty, and a "team above self" mentality even when stakes are high.
