About The Position

For over 20 years, Smartsheet has helped people and teams achieve–well, anything. From seamless work management to smart, scalable solutions, we’ve always worked with flow. We’re building tools that empower teams to automate the manual, uncover insights, and scale smarter. But more than that, we’re creating space– space to think big, take action, and unlock the kind of work that truly matters. Because when challenge meets purpose, and passion turns into progress, that’s magic at work, and it’s what we show up for everyday. Corporate Systems Engineering builds and operates the software platforms, integrations, and automations that power Smartsheet’s core business functions across Finance, Sales/GTM, and People & Culture. Our team owns mission-critical systems and workflows that enable how the company hires, sells, bills, pays, reports, and scales. We operate at the intersection of software engineering, enterprise platforms, and business-critical data, treating internal systems with the same rigor, reliability, and product mindset as customer-facing software. The Finance Systems team engineers and operates the platforms that support financial operations, including ERP, procurement, billing, and compliance. We work across configuration, extensibility, and integration to ensure systems are scalable, auditable, and resilient, treating code, configurations, and controls with the same rigor as software. As a Senior Software Engineer I (Finance Systems), you will lead the design, build, and operation of systems and workflows that directly support business execution at scale. You will own complex technical initiatives, partner with Product Managers and stakeholders on technical roadmaps, and mentor junior engineers. You will report into a Manager, Enterprise Systems, and can be based in our Bellevue, WA office, or you may work remotely from anywhere in the US where Smartsheet is a registered employer.
