About this role

Role Overview

Breeze is seeking a Junior Full Stack Engineer to join the team in New York City, NY. This hands-on, product-focused role involves working across the stack to help design, build, and ship user-facing payment products that turn complex financial workflows into simple, fast, and reliable experiences. It is an ideal position for early-career engineers with a builder mentality who want to grow alongside a fast-moving, AI-first fintech startup.

Key Responsibilities

Build and scale user-facing fintech products that power the Breeze payments platform.
Utilize AI tools like Claude Code as a core part of the daily workflow to scope, plan, and execute large projects across a multi-service codebase.
Independently break down ambiguous, multi-week projects into shippable milestones and manage execution from technical design to iteration.
Partner closely with Product and Design to shape product requirements, user experience decisions, and technical tradeoffs.
Collaborate with Risk, Compliance, and Operations teams to ensure product workflows satisfy regulatory and operational standards.
Participate in on-call and engineering runner rotations, triaging production alerts and resolving merchant-facing issues end to end.

Requirements

Hold a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or possess equivalent practical experience.
Bring 2+ years of professional software engineering experience, ideally within fintech, payments, or fast-paced startup environments.
Demonstrate solid full stack experience using React.js, Node.js, and TypeScript, or similar modern frameworks.
Show fluency with AI coding tools, agent tooling, RAG pipelines, or prompt engineering to ship faster without sacrificing quality.
Possess a strong product mindset with a focus on usability, customer experience, and business impact.
Comfortable operating in fast-moving environments without an established playbook.

Nice to Have
