Senior Product Engineer, Treasury (Elixir)

SENIOR PRODUCT ENGINEER, TREASURY (ELIXIR) Remote — US-based, working EST hours ABOUT VIC.AI http://Vic.ai Vic.ai http://Vic.ai is building the autonomous finance platform for the modern enterprise. We use AI to automate accounts payable and treasury workflows so finance teams operate with more speed, accuracy, and insight — today processing hundreds of millions of invoices a year. We're venture-backed, with teams in Miami, Raleigh, and Oslo. THE ROLE We're looking for a senior engineer with deep Elixir experience to build and scale the core services behind our treasury platform (moves billions in transaction volume). Increasingly that means agent-driven spend: AI agents that initiate corporate expense and travel, plus the infrastructure for them to create and use payment cards — some of the most forward-looking work at the company. Elixir is the anchor, but we want someone who thinks beyond the backend: an engineer with organized product thinking who can own a problem end-to-end across the SDLC — from shaping the requirement, to the backend service, to the front-end it ships behind, to running it in production. You'll work directly with the founders on product direction, alongside a small, senior team across treasury, product, and data/AI. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Design, build, and operate Elixir/Phoenix services — APIs, data pipelines, and async processing.

• Own features end-to-end, from product framing through the front-end needed to ship.
• Treat reliability as first-class on Tier 0/1 systems: observability, monitoring, and operational rigor.
• Use AI-assisted tools (esp.

• 5+ years of professional experience, with strong production Elixir and Phoenix.
• Ships features end-to-end — product framing through front-end — without a handoff.
• Solid grounding in distributed systems, concurrency, and async processing.
• Strong PostgreSQL; hands-on with cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, and CI/CD.
• Demonstrated, fluent use of AI coding tools (esp.

• Clear communicator across technical and non-technical teams; fluent English. NICE TO HAVE - Python or other backend languages.
• Payments, treasury, or fintech domain experience.
• Event-driven architectures, message queues, workflow orchestration.
• Exposure to AI/ML-powered products.

• Generous PTO and a remote-first, flexible schedule.
• Comprehensive health and wellness benefits.
• Real autonomy and ownership — a direct hand in where payments and treasury go. Acceptance and inclusion for everyone is at the heart of our company.

• Highlight any production Elixir or Phoenix projects in your portfolio, especially those involving APIs or async processing.
• Demonstrate familiarity with Claude Code or similar AI coding assistants by mentioning specific prompts or workflow improvements.
• Prepare concrete examples of end‑to‑end feature ownership, showing how you handled both backend logic and front‑end integration.
• Be ready to discuss your experience with Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, and PostgreSQL performance tuning during the interview.
• Emphasize clear communication skills by framing technical decisions in business terms.
• Ask about the team’s approach to observability and incident response to gauge their reliability standards.
• When negotiating, reference the equity component and AI tooling budget as part of the total compensation package.
