Associate Software Engineer

Join Vestwell, a leading 401(k) platform, as an Associate Software Engineer. In this role, you will work on building and updating the React/TypeScript UI for our web-based portal, writing and maintaining unit tests, collaborating with product and design teams, and learning our stack and coding standards. This position offers competitive health coverage, generous vacation and leave policies, a strong focus on learning and development, and a hybrid work environment.

• Contribuer à la construction et à la mise à jour de l'interface utilisateur React/TypeScript dans le portail web.
• Écrire et maintenir des tests unitaires pour les composants, les hooks et les helpers.
• Collaborer avec l'équipe produit, le design et d'autres ingénieurs pour transformer les spécifications et les maquettes en interface utilisateur fonctionnelle.
• You’re a great fit if you enjoy building user-facing web applications, you take feedback well and ask good questions, and you want to get better at writing clean, tested TypeScript
• You don’t need to own a product vertical yet — you will work on well-scoped tickets with support from senior engineers, contribute to code reviews, and gradually take on more independent work
• Ability to communicate clearly, ask for help, and follow through on feedback
• Some experience writing tests (Jest, React Testing Library, or similar) — or a clear desire to learn testing as part of the job
• Familiarity with HTML and CSS, and a willingness to follow an existing component library and design system
• Comfortable writing TypeScript and React (classwork, bootcamp, internships, personal projects, or 0–2 years of professional experience)
• Comfortable using Git for everyday work (clone, branch, commit, pull request)
• This role will be based in our Austin office and will be part of Vestwell's hybrid in-office operation
• Experience with Material UI, React Query, or a similar component/data-fetching stack
• Exposure to NestJS, Express, or another Node.js API framework
• Familiarity with Agile practice
• Internship, co-op, or open-source experience on a team codebase
• CS degree or equivalent practical experience
• Interest in financial services or retirement products
