Background

Financial technology companies building AI products for investment banking need strong engineering talent to support performance, reliability, and product scalability.

As Rogo continued developing its platform for demanding financial workflows, it needed to strengthen its engineering team with a Senior Software Engineer who could contribute to product quality, technical execution, and long-term platform growth. Because the product sits in a highly specialized environment where data accuracy, workflow speed, and system reliability matter, the company needed a structured hiring process that could identify the right candidate quickly while maintaining a high technical bar.

Challenges

Hiring for senior engineering roles in fintech and AI requires more than strong coding skills. Companies need candidates who can contribute to complex product development, work within data-intensive systems, and operate effectively in a fast-moving environment shaped by demanding user expectations.

Rogo needed to hire a Senior Software Engineer who could support the development of an AI platform used by investment banking professionals. This required a candidate with strong software engineering fundamentals, product-minded thinking, and the ability to work on systems where speed, reliability, and usability directly affect business value.

Because senior engineers with relevant fintech, AI, or high-performance SaaS experience are in high demand, the company needed a recruitment process that could move efficiently while maintaining a clear and structured technical evaluation framework.

High demand for senior software engineers in fintech and AI

Need for a candidate who could support complex, data-driven product development

Requirement for strong technical depth in a high-performance financial environment

Competitive hiring market for experienced engineering talent

Need for a structured hiring process with clear technical evaluation criteria

Solution

OnHires implemented a recruitment strategy tailored to Rogo’s AI-driven financial technology environment and engineering hiring needs.

We began with role calibration sessions to define the responsibilities, technical expectations, and success criteria for the Senior Software Engineer position. The focus was on software architecture, engineering execution, product contribution, and the ability to work effectively in a platform environment serving demanding financial users.

We then launched a targeted sourcing pipeline across senior software engineering, fintech, AI, and SaaS talent pools. Structured interview workflows and calibrated scorecards helped standardize candidate evaluation, while weekly hiring operations improved stakeholder alignment, accelerated feedback, and reduced delays throughout the process.

OnHires managed the recruitment process end to end, from sourcing and screening to offer coordination and onboarding support.
