As a Senior Software Engineer on Robinhood's Enterprise Build team, you turn the company's best AI-built prototypes into true enterprise-grade services. You assess prototypes from across the company, decide what survives and what needs rebuilding, and own the outcome end-to-end. This small, high-leverage team works directly with business partners in Finance, HR, Legal, and Compliance to ship services that meet Robinhood's full engineering standards while operating in a heavily regulated industry.
What you'll do
- Assess prototypes from across the company and make the technical call: harden, rebuild, or redirect, then own the outcome end-to-end.
- Design, build, and ship services on Robinhood's enterprise platforms, meeting the company's full standards for secure, reliable enterprise software.
- Build AI-natively: drive agents through first-pass assessment, porting, and test scaffolding, and ship MCP servers, sub-agents, and agent skills as production artifacts where the solution calls for them.
- Work directly with sponsoring business units in Finance, HR, Legal, and Compliance during each build, translating real workflows into software people actually adopt.
- Deliver clean operational handoffs as part of your definition of done: runbooks, evals, and dashboards.
- Establish paved patterns with the Enterprise Platforms team: when you solve the same problem twice, make it a platform capability the third time.
- Raise the bar on AI-era engineering quality, including rigorous, teaching-quality review of AI-generated code, your own and others'.
What you bring
- 5+ years of software engineering experience building and running production backend or full-stack systems, with a track record of independently delivering high-ambiguity projects end-to-end.
- Hands-on cloud depth, GCP preferred, including containerized services, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure as code, with a strong focus on a serverless stack.
- Demonstrated AI-native development: daily fluency with agentic coding tools, experience building LLM-powered applications or agentic workflows, and the judgment to review, harden, and productionize AI-generated code.
- Product sense and scoping discipline: you can find the 20% of a prototype worth keeping, say no to the rest, and finish, since this team's leverage depends on engagements that end.
- Exceptional communication with non-engineers: you're comfortable embedded with finance, legal, or HR partners, translating in both directions without losing precision.
- Experience in highly regulated industries, particularly finance or fintech, is strongly preferred.
What we offer
- Base pay of $166,000-$195,000 USD (Menlo Park, CA; New York, NY; Bellevue, WA; Washington, DC); $147,000-$172,000 USD (Denver, CO; Westlake, TX; Chicago, IL); or $130,000-$152,000 USD (Lake Mary, FL; Clearwater, FL; Gainesville, FL), plus eligibility for bonus opportunities and equity.
- 100% paid health insurance for employees with 90% coverage for dependents, employer-paid life and disability insurance, fertility benefits, and mental health benefits.
- Lifestyle wallet, a flexible benefits spending account for wellness, learning, and more.
- Time off including company holidays, paid time off, sick time, and parental leave.
- 401(k) matching.
- Exceptional office experience with catered meals, events, and comfortable workspaces; this role is based in Menlo Park, CA with in-person attendance expected at least 3 days per week.
