About the role

BitGo in Palo Alto is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to build the ledger systems behind client balances, trading positions, and financial reporting. You will design double-entry ledger primitives and ensure financial correctness from day one, not as an afterthought. You’ll work across Finance, Data Engineering, and Product to model ownership, reconciliation, and the integration of new financial products, emphasizing scalable, extensible data models and audit-ready design.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
