About Encore
EncorEstate Plans empowers trusted advisors with the highest quality estate planning service so clients complete estate plans that protect what matters most.
Built for advisors, Encore combines modern technology, professional support, and human oversight to keep advisors at the center of the estate planning process and ensure plans are completed and funded as intended, without practicing law.
We’re a small, fast-moving team focused on real customer impact, thoughtful product design, and leveraging the latest advances in AI-assisted development.
Role Summary
We’re looking for a Full Stack Software Engineer who enjoys building products, solving problems, and continuously learning.
You’ll work closely with the CTO, Product team, and other engineers to build and improve software used by financial advisors every day.
This role combines hands-on development, product collaboration, and ownership of meaningful features and projects. You’ll have the opportunity to expand your technical skills, deepen your product understanding, and grow your impact over time.
How We Work
We’re a small team, and ownership matters more than titles.
Everyone contributes where needed. That might mean helping with QA, troubleshooting production issues, improving internal processes, or supporting a teammate. We care more about solving problems than protecting job descriptions.
The people who thrive at Encore are humble, curious, collaborative, and comfortable with ambiguity. They take initiative, enjoy learning, and are excited to make a visible impact on the business.
What You’ll Do
Build what matters
Design, implement, and maintain product features with a focus on usability, reliability, and quality.
Learn through ownership
Own features and projects from implementation through deployment while partnering with teammates to deliver reliable, high-quality software.
Move fast with AI
Use modern AI development tools to accelerate coding, testing, research, and prototyping. Continuously explore new ways to improve productivity and quality.
Collaborate closely
Partner with Product, Design, and Engineering to understand customer needs and deliver meaningful improvements.
Improve the system
Contribute to testing, observability, performance, and developer tooling so the team can ship confidently and efficiently.
Grow continuously
Continue developing your technical expertise, product thinking, and understanding of customer needs while expanding your impact across the business.
