Full Stack Engineer - Junior

Breeze is building an AI-powered infrastructure layer for global commerce that combines global payments, AI, stablecoins, compliance, risk, and financial operations. The Junior Full Stack Engineer will design, build, and ship user-facing payment products across the stack, partnering with Product, Design, Operations, Risk, and Compliance to deliver secure, scalable, and reliable financial workflows.

What you'll do:

• Build and scale user-facing fintech products that power Breeze's payments platform
• Use AI tools (Claude Code and similar) as a core part of your workflow to scope, plan, and execute large projects across a large, multi-service codebase
• Independently break down ambiguous, multi-week projects into shippable milestones and manage your own execution
• Own features end to end, from technical design and implementation through iteration based on user feedback
• Work in a full stack environment using React.js and TypeScript on the frontend, and Node.js and TypeScript on the backend
• Partner closely with Product and Design to shape product requirements, UX decisions, and technical tradeoffs
• Design systems that are secure, scalable, and performant in a payments and financial context
• Collaborate with Risk, Compliance, and Operations teams to ensure product workflows meet regulatory and operational needs
• Communicate clearly with stakeholders and contribute to product planning and prioritization
• Participate in our on-call and engineering runner rotations, triaging production alerts and merchant-facing issues and closing them out end to end

What they're looking for:

• 2+ years of professional software engineering experience, ideally in fintech, payments, or fast-paced startup environments
• Experience building product-driven, user-facing applications
• Fluent with AI coding tools; you know how to use them to scope work, understand unfamiliar parts of a large repository, and ship faster without sacrificing quality
• Familiarity with tools that power AI: agent tooling, RAG pipelines, prompt engineering, etc
• Solid full stack experience with React.js, Node.js, and TypeScript, or similar modern frameworks
• Product mindset, with genuine care for usability, customer experience, and business impact
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to own features from concept to launch. You can take a loosely defined project, scope it, sequence it, and deliver it with minimal supervision
• Excellent communication skills and comfort working cross-functionally with non-engineering partners
• Familiarity with building scalable, reliable systems and modern web architectures
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience
• Comfortable operating in fast-moving environments without an established playbook
• A builder mentality with a strong bias toward action
