Since our founding, we have redefined how people approach small-dollar loans—delivering over $1 billion in funding to more than 1.5 million customers, issuing over 4 million loans, and saving our customers more than $650 million.
At Possible, we’re building a new type of consumer finance company; one that helps our customers stay out of debt rather than profit from their staying in it. We are a Public Benefit Corporation with the mission to help communities unlock economic mobility through affordable credit products crafted to improve financial health for generations. Join the team that’s making our goal a reality.
Team Introduction: The App Ecosystem team is the foundation of Possible Finance's mobile experience. We own the React Native platform, build/test/release infrastructure, Expo integration, and every shared surface in the app — from authentication and account settings to the multi-product dashboard and core component library. We're a small, high-leverage platform team that makes every product team faster and every feature more reliable.
The Role & Impact: You'll lead a team of 5-7 engineers who own the mobile platform and shared app experience at a consumer fintech company that's evolving from a single product to a multi-product platform. This is equal parts platform engineering and product delivery: you'll drive the technical architecture for shared services, composable frontend patterns, and an AI-first developer experience, while partnering closely with a Principal PM who owns the multi-product strategy. You'll shape the technical direction of our mobile platform — driving architecture decision-making, improving developer experience, and building the foundation that every product team ships on.
What You'll Bring:
- Experience managing a team of software engineers, with a track record of retaining and developing talent
- Technical fluency in frontend/mobile — you can drive architecture decisions, evaluate tradeoffs in platform design, and hold a strong technical point of view in React Native or comparable mobile frameworks
- A bias toward shaping direction, not waiting for it — you'll partner with product and engineering leadership to define your team's roadmap from a blank page
- Active use of AI tools in your engineering workflow, with experience driving AI adoption across a team
- Experience operating as a platform team that serves multiple product teams — you know how to balance platform investment, shared experience quality, and product team velocity
- Experience building new platform capabilities from scratch alongside a senior product partner
Cultural Values Highlight:
- Act with Ownership — You come to the table with solutions and take responsibility for outcomes. You think long-term about platform health, not just this sprint's deliverables.
- To Lead is to Serve — You unblock your team, develop your people, and take on the hard problems so others can move faster.
- Scientific Approach — You make decisions based on evidence and first principles, not convention. You experiment, measure, and course-correct.
