Assess AI‑generated prototypes, decide whether to harden, rebuild, or redirect them, and own the end‑to‑end delivery of enterprise‑grade services that meet Robinhood’s security, compliance, and operational standards.
5+ years building production backend or full‑stack systems, deep GCP/cloud experience (especially serverless and IaC), daily fluency with AI‑coding agents, strong product sense, and excellent communication with non‑engineers; fintech or regulated‑industry background is a plus.
The team turns high‑impact AI prototypes into reliable, compliant enterprise services, enabling Robinhood to scale innovative tools across finance, HR, legal, and compliance while maintaining safety and regulatory standards.
A senior engineer who thrives on high‑leverage, ambiguous projects, enjoys bridging AI tools with production code, and excels at collaborating with business partners in a fast‑moving, regulated fintech environment.
Our mission is to democratize finance for all. An estimated $124 trillion of assets will be inherited by younger generations in the next two decades. The largest transfer of wealth in human history. If you’re ready to be at the epicenter of this historic cultural and financial shift, keep reading.
We are building an elite team, applying frontier technologies to the world’s biggest financial problems. We’re looking for bold thinkers. Sharp problem-solvers. Builders who are wired to make an impact. Robinhood isn’t a place for complacency, it’s where ambitious people do the best work of their careers. We’re a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do. Expectations are high, and so are the rewards.
Robinhood is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join the Enterprise Build team: the small, high-leverage team that turns the company's best AI-built prototypes into true enterprise-grade services. Robinhood has gone all-in on an AI-accelerated workforce: every week, Hoodies across Finance, HR, Legal, Compliance, and beyond use sanctioned AI tools to build working prototypes of the tools they wish they had. The best of those ideas deserve to become real software. That is this team's entire job, and yours.
The team is built on the premise that AI multiplies what a senior engineer can own: agents do the first pass of assessment, porting, and scaffolding; you review, harden, and decide. The work is a distinctive loop. A prototype earns real usage in our experimental sandbox and arrives through a single front door. You assess it, decide what survives, often the idea and the workflow, rarely the code, and rebuild it as an enterprise-grade, production-spec service that meets our full engineering standards: SSO, audit logging, secrets management, CI/CD, infrastructure as code, and security review, baked in from the first commit. While you build, you work directly with business partners, the forward-deployed pattern, pointed inward. Robinhood operates in a heavily regulated industry. Building fast here means building safely, and this team exists to help make sure those aren't in tension.
This role is based in our Menlo Park, CA office, with in-person attendance expected at least 3 days per week.
At Robinhood, we believe in the power of in-person work to accelerate progress, spark innovation, and strengthen community. Our office experience is intentional, energizing, and designed to fully support high-performing teams.
