Sr. Software Engineer - Accounting Payables

**About AppFolio** AppFolio's main product is the AppFolio Property Manager: web\-based software for managers of apartment buildings to schedule maintenance, track their finances, and communicate with their tenants. We also make a companion app for tenants to pay their rent, buy renter's insurance, and request maintenance. We love our work because it helps millions of people with these everyday tasks. Our product vision sums it up nicely: *AppFolio creates a world where choosing, living in, owning, and managing communities feels magical and effortless, freeing people to thrive.* Since 2019, we have been energetically supercharging our products with AI. We have introduced features such as smart bill upload \- SBE, a fully featured AI leasing agent \- LISA, a LLM backed chat interface to support property managers using our product \- Realm X, and recently an LLM backed workflow system \- Realm Flows. These and other features enable us to provide experiences that allow our property managers to automate the mundane and focus more on the tasks that only they are capable of.

Teams are empowered to decide how they want to work. * We work hard, but we encourage a healthy work\-life balance. * We support fully remote work, but we have very nice offices in Santa Barbara, CA and San Diego, CA. **About this job** We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join a 6\-person cross\-functional product development team focused on continuing to enhance the accounting module of our Appfolio Property Manager product.

As a Senior Software Engineer on this team, you would onboard quickly to our technology stack and our feature set, align your team on a shared understanding of the problem and solution space, and work closely with your fellow devs and cross\-functional partners to execute on these initiatives. This will require technical expertise and leadership, as well as superb communication skills. **Your impact** * Become a master of your software engineering craft, and work with other software engineers who are smart enough to teach you, and humble enough to learn from you. * Develop scalable, robust, and simple web\-based solutions to solve complex business problems for our customers. * Formulate, implement, and evaluate algor
