About the role

We’re seeking a driven Senior Full Stack Engineer who wants to make a meaningful impact at a mission-focused company. You’ll be eager to collaborate with a low-ego, highly supportive team and ready to take on substantial responsibility across multiple initiatives.

FreeWill uses fixed compensation and a no-negotiation policy to keep pay fair (we don’t believe compensation should depend on someone’s comfort with negotiating). We aim to be clear and transparent about pay. When we extend an offer, we present several options so candidates can choose between a package that emphasizes salary or stock options. The salary range for this position is $160,000–$170,000. This role also includes a signing bonus, equity, and full benefits.

• Collaborate closely with cross‑functional partners in legal, growth, sales, design, and product
• Mentor junior and mid-level engineers through code reviews, pairing, direct conversations, and team training sessions

Technical Skills

• 5+ years building production systems for complex web applications
• Experience leading projects with multiple engineers, a product manager, and a designer
• B2B or B2B2C experience preferred; fintech and/or estate planning experience is a plus

• Skilled in web architecture, including React, API design, and developer tools
• Familiar with TypeScript, Express, SQL, observability, performance tuning, CI, automated testing, and cloud infrastructure

FreeWill is an equal opportunity employer committed to diversity. We do not make hiring decisions based on race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability, or any other protected characteristic.

We are a remote‑first organization hiring in 47 states and Washington, D.C. We’re currently unable to hire in Colorado, Alabama, or Louisiana. We also cannot sponsor visas, so applicants must already be authorized to work in the U.S.

Don’t meet every requirement? Please apply anyway. Research shows that members of marginalized groups—such as women, LGBTQ+ individuals, and people of color—are less likely to apply unless they meet all qualifications. FreeWill is committed to building an inclusive, diverse, equitable, and accessible workplace where everyone feels they belong. If this role excites you but your experience doesn’t perfectly match every qualification, we still encourage you to apply. You may be the ideal fit for this or another open role.
