# Software Engineer, Full Stack

Software Engineer, Full Stack Chicago | Engineering | In office | Full-time Compensation Range: $100k-$140k About InstaSwitch InstaSwitch is the fastest way for banks and fintech platforms to activate new accounts, driving deposits and primary relationships. Businesses hesitate to switch accounts due to time and complexity, leading to lost primacy. InstaSwitch automates switching, seamlessly moving income sources, payroll, and spend with minimal effort. About This Role Account switching is a genuinely hard problem - moving payroll, recurring payments, and spending patterns from one financial institution to another requires integrating with a fragmented ecosystem of banks, financial aggregators, and merchant sites, often with inconsistent APIs and incomplete data. We're building the infrastructure that makes this seamless at scale, and we're doing it with a small team that moves fast and owns everything it builds. We need a strong full-stack engineer who thrives on variety. You'll work across a Rails backend, a TypeScript/Lit frontend, Python microservices, and AWS infrastructure - sometimes in the same day. The work ranges from building partner-facing APIs and banking integrations
