About the role

The brands on your kitchen shelf are run by people doing extraordinary work that nobody sees.

We're building the platform they run on, and a brand they'll be proud to be part of.

Confido is the AI operating system that runs cash application, deductions, trade and planning in one place for CPG brands. That means Finance, Sales, and Ops finally work on the same number.

We’re trusted by 250+ brands managing $30B+ in revenue, including Daisy, OLIPOP, Simple Mills, Idahoan, and more. We've achieved best-in-class growth and recently raised a $55M Series B led by Insight Partners to accelerate our momentum.

If you want your work on shelves everywhere — and outsized ownership while you build — we'd love to meet you.

As a Staff Software Engineer, you will help architect and build the core systems that power the Confido platform. You’ll lead the development of major product and infrastructure initiatives—from AI-powered document ingestion to large-scale financial analytics systems.

This role combines deep technical ownership with product impact, working closely with engineering, product, and customers to turn complex operational workflows into scalable software.

Required

  • 8+ years of software engineering experience; 2+ in a staff-level role

  • Strong systems design and architecture experience

  • Strong product instincts and ability to translate real-world workflows into software

Nice to Have

  • Experience working with AI/ML-powered systems

  • Experience with large-scale data pipelines or analytics infrastructure

  • Interest in early-stage startups and high-ownership roles

  • CS degree or equivalent experience
