Senior Software Engineer

About UsVectorOne builds software for the office of the CFO, tailored to the world’s most complicated industries where general purpose accounting tools fall short: oil & gas, infrastructure, real estate, private equity/family office, healthcare, and consumer products/retail. We’re solving messy, complex problems built on systems and processes that tie back to the Industrial Revolution. The office of the CFO must evolve, and VectorOne is building what that evolved state will become.Most finance platforms make every customer adapt to the software. We instead start from deep industry expertise, then build the software around how businesses actually operate.
