About Wealthfront Engineering
At Wealthfront, we foster a culture of continuous learning and innovation, focusing on delivering high-quality software solutions. Our primary strategy revolves around automation, enabling us to enhance the financial services we provide to our clients.

Our software automatically manages various financial processes, learning from data as we strive for improvement. Wealthfront engineers operate as builder/operators, taking full responsibility for both the development and operational maintenance of our systems, with an emphasis on automating any repetitive tasks.

We prioritize automation in our development processes; for instance, all testing is automated — manual testing is not part of our software lifecycle. Additionally, we ensure observability in case of failures, with systems that notify engineers about issues, allowing us to maintain healthy operations.

If you are passionate about working in a dynamic engineering environment where your contributions can significantly impact the company's success, especially in a tight-knit team of around 250 employees, with half in engineering, we encourage you to apply!
