Hummingbird is a remote-first, fully distributed team united by the shared mission of helping fight financial crime. Since our launch in 2017, we’ve helped major financial institutions and tech-savvy trailblazers alike (e.g. Stripe, Affirm, etc.) orchestrate their compliance programs through our thoughtfully designed, intuitive SaaS product. We believe finding and stopping financial crime is a problem rooted in code, language and design, so we built the product that the heroes doing this work deserve.

We are customer-obsessed, and we love building and shipping great products. We set a high bar, challenge our assumptions, seek diverse opinions, and support each other to do our best work.

We do our best to write inclusive, descriptive and accurate job descriptions, but we’re not always perfect. If you’re interested in the role, we’d love to hear from you even if you don’t feel like you meet everything we’re looking for. We’re always iterating and improving, and it’s possible that your experience is even more impactful than we could have imagined.

About the Role

We are looking for a driven data engineer to join our team and champion the use of data at Hummingbird. Data plays a crucial role in our mission to fight financial crime and you will help us find new and innovative ways to leverage it to provide powerful tools for our users, and allow us to better understand the usage of our product. Hummingbird is uniquely positioned at the intersection of financial technology, security, policy, and law enforcement and as such we have built up a one of a kind data set that we can now use to give our customers the edge in their efforts to stay ahead of criminals. As an employee at a small startup, you will have the opportunity to wear many hats, working from product discovery through implementation.
