Senior Software Engineer: Core Platform

Specifics About The Role:

We are hiring a Senior Software Engineer to build the product surface that merchants and developers actually touch. You will work primarily in Rails, Go, and TypeScript across everything from backend services to frontend components and the SDK layer merchants use to embed Frame into their products. The surface area is wide. The problems are deep. You will work across Engineering, Risk, Compliance, and Product on systems where the experience is the differentiator.

Why Frame:

Frame is a compliance infrastructure company powering payments for complex, highly regulated industries. We enable businesses to move money with confidence by embedding compliance and payments into a single, intelligent platform. Our ambition is to become the infrastructure layer that regulated businesses rely on to operate, scale, and access services globally.

At Frame, how we build matters as much as what we build. We're headquartered in Los Angeles with a globally distributed team. We're committed to running an inclusive and accessible hiring process. If you need any adjustments along the way, let us know.

What You'll Do:

• • Build core FrameOS platform features including merchant onboarding flows, capabilities and requirements systems, and compliance workflows.
  • Own Frame.js, our TypeScript SDK and web component library used by merchants to embed compliance-aware payment flows.
  • Ship developer-facing APIs and documentation.
  • Build internal operations tooling including dashboards, case management, and workflow automation that make our team fast and precise.
  • Build AI-powered pipelines for adverse media classification, underwriting automation, and document processing.

What We Require:

• • 4+ years of software engineering experience with strong Ruby on Rails and TypeScript skills, or comparable framework experience.
  • You're known for having a track record building platform infrastructure where reliability and correctness matter with an instinct for clean abstractions.
  • You have experience building APIs that are obvious on first read, systems that feel inevitable once you understand them.
  • You move when things are unclear, find another path when a dependency slips, and ship to learn rather than waiting for perfect.

You'll Be Successful If:

• • You have experience in fintech, payments, or a regulated infrastructure environment.
  • You have experience building developer-facing APIs or SDKs that other teams liked using.
  • You have experience with compliance or KYC/KYB systems, AI/ML pipelines for classification, document processing, automation, or Go.
  • You are someone who doesn't wait for permission.
  • When something is blocked, you find a way around it.
  • You care about taste as much as speed: the system that feels inevitable, the API that clicks on first read.
  • You move before it's perfect, and care enough that it's still good.
