Fullstack Software Engineer
TLDR
Build secure, intuitive payment features for our consumer financial product, while collaborating with cross-functional teams and contributing to an ambitious product roadmap.
Privacy is the virtual card platform giving consumers and small businesses complete control over their online payments.
Our virtual cards protect 250,000+ users across the U.S., processing over $3 billion in transactions with bank-level security and encryption. From merchant-locked cards that can't be used anywhere else if stolen, to spending limits that block unauthorized charges, to one-click pausing that stops subscriptions instantly, Privacy puts financial control back in users' hands.
We're building a future where every online payment is secure by default, free from data breaches, unauthorized charges, and hidden fees. We're proud to have been named one of Forbes' "Top 100 Most Customer-Centric Companies" and featured in The Wall Street Journal, TechCrunch, and Wirecutter.
Privacy is the product that started it all. What began as Privacy.com grew into Lithic, now a Series C company backed by world-class investors including Bessemer Venture Partners, Index Ventures, Spark Capital, Stripes, and Mastercard, along with many others. Our dedicated team of 35 sits at the heart of Lithic's 160+ person organization, spanning 26 states and 7 countries, headquartered in New York City.
