By leveraging blockchain data, threat intelligence, and advanced analytics, our products empower governments, financial institutions, and crypto businesses to combat illicit activity and global security threats. At TRM, you'll join a mission-driven, fast-paced team made up of experts in law enforcement, data science, engineering, and financial intelligence, tackling complex global challenges daily. Whether analyzing blockchain data, developing cutting-edge tools, or collaborating with global organizations, you'll have the opportunity to make a meaningful and lasting impact.
At TRM, writing code can literally save lives. Our platform helps governments, financial institutions, and crypto companies detect and prevent financial crime — from terrorist financing to human trafficking. The Full-Stack Product Engineering team builds the core products and services that make this possible, from customer-facing applications to foundational APIs and internal tools. We’re looking for an early-career engineer who’s eager to grow quickly by shipping real-world features and contributing directly to this mission.
As a Product Engineer, you’ll work alongside experienced mentors, product managers, and designers to solve complex problems, write production-grade code, and build features that matter. You’ll gain exposure across the full stack—React, Node.js, Postgres—and be part of a high-velocity team building the infrastructure of trust for the crypto economy.
The impact you’ll have here:
- Build and ship full-stack features across TRM’s core products and internal tools, with guidance and mentorship from senior engineers.
- Collaborate cross-functionally to clarify requirements, ask smart questions, and break down complex problems into shippable pieces.
- Learn how to design and build APIs and services with scalability, performance, and maintainability in mind.
- Write clean, tested, and well-documented code that delivers value to TRM’s customers and stakeholders.
- Continuously improve through feedback, pair programming, code reviews, and retros—bringing curiosity and coachability to every interaction.
What we’re looking for:
- A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science or a closely related technical field (completed by Summer 2026).
- 1–2 software engineering internships, or equivalent experience through academic or personal projects.
- Familiarity with JavaScript/TypeScript and an interest in full-stack development (React, Node.js, Postgres).
- An eagerness to learn: you take feedback well and show curiosity about unfamiliar systems or tools.
- Strong communication skills—you keep your team updated, ask questions early, and can explain your thinking clearly.
- Demonstrated initiative—whether through a side project, internship, or campus involvement, you’ve shown you can take ownership and see something through.
- Excitement for TRM’s mission to build a safer financial system for billions of people.
About the Team:
- The team operates on a weekly sprint schedule. Individuals on the team are tasked to lead projects as technical anchors, and given a chance to grow and take ownership according to their level and goals. We work closely with our internal stakeholders to deliver impactful features to our internal customers and the company.
- The team’s culture is built on psychological safety wherein team members build rapport and trust-based relationships with teammates, hold each other accountable and to a high bar, collaborate extensively, and have lots of fun along the way.
- The team’s timezone is a mix of EST and PST with at least 6 hours of overlap with PST (8 am to 2 pm PST)
- On-Call: We have an on-call rotation that is specific to internal tools. In this role, the internal tools engineer is responsible for triaging customer support requests from specific Slack channels pertaining to internal tools.

- Ruthless Prioritization & Adaptability: We adapt quickly when faced with new information. For example, an engineer may message the PM or EM to prioritize Task A vs. Task B in the middle of the sprint – we don’t let inertia guide our decisions. Instead we focus on ruthless prioritization and pivot quickly as needed.
- Challenging Timelines (Execution Pressure): An engineer questions a teammate’s proposed 3-week timeline, and constructively argues for condensing it to 2 weeks—backed by rationale, tradeoffs, and a plan to reduce scope or increase velocity. They show ownership of delivery speed and willingness to push for urgency.
- Time-Boxed Spiking (Rapid Learning & Decision-Making): An engineer proposes a 1-week spike with a clear time-box and success criteria to explore implementation options or validate feasibility through a proof of concept. They demonstrate speed not just in execution, but in de-risking decisions early.
