TRM is looking to build a safer financial system for billions of people by tackling critical challenges such as human trafficking, financial fraud, and terrorist financing
Requirements
- Background in fullstack or backend engineering using technologies such as NodeJS, Python, Postgres/SQL and React
- Strong fundamentals in software engineering, with proficiency in at least one programming language and the ability to pick up others quickly
- Demonstrated ability to learn new technologies rapidly (e.g., cloud platforms, AI/ML tools, distributed systems, data processing frameworks, or full-stack frameworks)
- Evidence of high ownership: you set goals, execute with urgency, and reliably deliver outcomes even in ambiguous or constrained environments
- Ability to work directly with technical and non-technical stakeholders, communicate clearly, and build trust in mission-critical settings
- Comfort working across the stack—whether writing backend code, tuning an ML model, configuring cloud infrastructure, or debugging a data pipeline
- Desire to work on hard problems that have real consequences for national security and global financial integrity
Responsibilities
- Deliver mission outcomes by developing and deploying greenfield technical solutions—from prototypes to production systems—across diverse technology stacks
- Learn and apply new skills rapidly, whether building AI-powered applications, designing data pipelines, extending full-stack systems, or integrating with secure government environments
- Serve as a technical partner to mission stakeholders, translating ambiguous needs into actionable engineering work and working backward from mission impact
- Own end-to-end delivery: requirements gathering, architecture, implementation, testing, deployment, and ongoing support in production environments
- Create clarity and momentum in high-stakes settings, removing blockers, simplifying complexity, and driving solutions forward with urgency
- Capture ground-truth feedback from operators and incorporate it into TRM’s product direction, engineering practices, and long-term programs
- Rapid Issue Resolution: Forward Deployed Engineers identify and diagnose critical onsite issues, set up incident channels or virtual war rooms with the remote team, and implement fixes in minutes to hours
Other
- Candidate must have an active TS/SCI clearance
- Ability to work directly with technical and non-technical stakeholders, communicate clearly, and build trust in mission-critical settings
- Desire to work on hard problems that have real consequences for national security and global financial integrity
- Inspiring Colleague: We value humility, candor, and a one-team mindset
- Impact-Oriented Trailblazer: We put customers first, driving for speed, focus, and adaptability
