Job description

Who We Are :

At Emburse, you’ll not just imagine the future – you’ll build it. As a leader in travel and expense solutions, we are creating a future where technology drives business value and inspires extraordinary results. Our AI-powered platform helps organizations modernize financial operations, increase visibility, and optimize spend across the enterprise.

Emburse is looking for a passionate software engineer to contribute to the development of an engaging and interconnected set of system solutions. As a staff engineer at Emburse, you’ll work with engineering managers, senior engineers, and cross-functional partners to design the technical underpinnings of the product. At the same time, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to be hands-on building key systems, and will be directly responsible for the successful delivery of large-scale technical efforts as well acting as a technical mentor and leader for other engineers.

What You Will Do

  • Provide technical leadership and architectural guidance for enterprise-scale SaaS applications
  • Contribute hands-on to the most critical coding projects, solving complex engineering problems
  • Drive the design and implementation of microservice and cloud-based systems
  • Ensure scalability, reliability, and security across distributed systems
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to align technical direction with business goals
  • Write clean, testable, maintainable code and elevate team practices around testing and quality
  • Mentor engineers at all levels and raise the bar for design, code reviews, and system thinking

What You Will Bring

  • 10+ years of professional software engineering experience, with at least 3 years designing and scaling microservices systems
  • Strong background in distributed systems, event-driven architecture, and REST / gRPC APIs with deep expertise in modern object oriented programming
  • Proficiency across modern microservice languages and ecosystems, with the ability to design and review systems built in Java, Go, C#, or Python, and to guide teams in selecting the right tool for the problem.
  • Proficiency with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes).
  • Strong cloud-native platform experience (preferably in AWS)
  • Proven success building and scaling web technologies / SaaS products
  • Solid understanding of database technologies (SQL and NoSQL), caching strategies, and message queues.
  • Familiarity with Agile development
  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to align diverse stakeholders.
  • Why Emburse?

    Finance is changing—and at Emburse, we’re leading the way. Our AI-powered solutions help organizations eliminate inefficiencies, gain real-time visibility, and optimize spend—so they can focus on what’s next, not what’s slowing them down.

  • A Company with Momentum – We serve 12M+ users across 120 countries, helping businesses modernize
  • their finance operations.

  • A Team That Innovates – Work alongside some of the brightest minds in finance, tech, and AI to solve real-
  • world challenges.

  • A Culture That Empowers – Competitive pay, flexible work, and an inclusive, collaborative environment that
  • supports your success.

  • A Career That Matters – Your work here drives efficiency, innovation, and smarter financial decision-making
  • for businesses everywhere.

    Shape your future & find what’s next at Emburse.
