Job Description

Backend Software Engineer - Remote in US or In Office (UT, PA, CA)  

**Senior, Staff, and Sr. Staff levels **

Nav is democratizing small business financing. In other words, we give small business owners access and control.  Yes, this challenges the norm, but it means working with curious, purpose driven, dedicated, and inquisitively smart people who push themselves, our company and the community to the next level (and every level after that). We are the people behind the tech. And when it’s good, we look for better. We don’t over think the value we bring nor spend time trying to revamp mantras. We also do not come up with some crafty way to tell you who we are and what we offer. We are Nav!  Here, you’ll gain a wealth of experience, learn the tricks of the trade, and work with winners. All companies say people are connected to their mission but in our case our mission and our people are one – it is a way of being not just a cause you are committed to.  And since 2013, Nav has holistically and organically developed its own ideology because Nav can only be Nav.

WHAT WE EMPOWER YOU WITH:

• Build and scale services that integrate with banking data vendors, Salesforce, and other internal services. Our focus is in Go, but we support other services in languages such as Ruby, Elixir, and Python.
• Optimize Nav’s customer experience, from first contact, through sign-up, and applying for loans and credit cards.
• Build the framework that Nav’s solutions (credit reports, alerts, financing marketplace) plug into.
• Turn business requirements into technical solutions.

• You are comfortable with ambiguity, ability to change course quickly based on new insights.

INCLUSION AT NAV:

At Nav, we celebrate what makes our employees unique because the businesses we serve are progressively diverse and distinctly original. Navericks are diverse, side hustlers, immigrants, veterans, queer, and we push generational boundaries. We are college dropouts, PhDs, special needs parents, allies, pet owners and community leaders. Navericks are human.  We are committed to upholding a safe, supportive environment where everyone matters. We are committed to making a better future for all of us. We have created a workplace where people of all backgrounds can express their identities authentically. To put it simply we want you to be proud to be you.

OUR COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY IS SIMPLE BUT POWERFUL:

• We believe great, enduring relationships are grounded in trust and transparency.
• Compensation shouldn’t be a distraction, and employees should understand how pay and career advancement decisions are made.
• Providing equal pay for equal work is table stakes for being a great place to work.
• Gender and ethnic inequity should only be something that our children read about in history books.
• We believe providing Navsters with company ownership, competitive pay, and a range of meaningful benefits is the start of creating a culture where people want to give the best they’ve got — not because they’re simply making money, but because they’ve fallen in love with our vision, mission, values, and team.

• Competitive Pay
• Company Ownership

• We value different opinions and point of views
• We ensure that we connect outside as well as inside to learn from others and inspire each other.
• We hold ourselves accountable for delivering results
• We choose to not to be a victim of circumstance.
• We make decisions &  take responsibility so that we can act & support each other, rather than adopting defensive, and “finger pointing” behaviors.
