About Possible Finance

Since our founding, Possible Finance has 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 customers more than $650 million. We're building a new type of consumer finance company that helps customers stay out of debt rather than profit from their staying in it. As a Public Benefit Corporation, our mission is to help communities unlock economic mobility through affordable credit products crafted to improve financial health for generations.

Team Introduction

The App Ecosystem team is the foundation of Possible Finance's mobile experience. This small, high-leverage platform team owns 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 make 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 evolving from a single product to a multi-product platform. This role combines platform engineering and product delivery: you'll drive technical architecture for shared services, composable frontend patterns, and an AI-first developer experience while partnering closely with a Principal PM who owns multi-product strategy. You'll shape the technical direction of our mobile platform, drive architecture decision-making, improve developer experience, and build the foundation that every product team ships on.

What You'll Bring

• Team Leadership: Experience managing software engineers with a proven track record of retaining and developing talent
• Technical Fluency: Strong frontend/mobile expertise to drive architecture decisions, evaluate platform design tradeoffs, and hold a strong technical point of view in React Native or comparable mobile frameworks
• Strategic Ownership: Bias toward shaping direction rather than waiting for it—you'll partner with product and engineering leadership to define your team's roadmap from a blank page
• AI Adoption: Active use of AI tools in your engineering workflow with experience driving AI adoption across teams
• Platform Expertise: Experience operating as a platform team serving multiple product teams—balancing platform investment, shared experience quality, and product team velocity
• New Platform Development: Track record building new platform capabilities from scratch alongside senior product partners

Cultural Values

• 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 tackle hard problems that enable others.
