Senior Software Engineer - Credit Karma

Company Overview

Job Overview

The Portals team sits at the heart of how Intuit Credit Karma delivers personalized experiences to its members.

This is a high-leverage role where your work touches nearly every product team at Credit Karma. If a member gets shown the right offer at the right moment, there's a good chance the Portals platform made that happen.
