Software Engineer - Platform Foundation

Raleigh, NC

Blend is a diverse team of problem solvers who believe that the world’s financial resources should be more accessible. Our cloud banking platform is used by Wells Fargo, U.S. Bank, and over 330 other financial services firms to acquire more customers, increase productivity, and deliver end-to-end digital experiences. Our software enables our customers to process an average of more than $5 billion in loans per day, making it possible for consumers to reach their financial goals faster and lead better lives. Come do work that matters.

At Blend, we’re building a culture that feels energizing to be part of every day, where people choose to show up not just for work, but for each other. Our Raleigh office is a space where diverse perspectives are celebrated, collaboration comes naturally, and momentum is contagious. We bring people together often - whether to share ideas, celebrate wins, or simply connect - and we extend that connection beyond the office through thoughtfully planned team outings and social gatherings that help our community grow stronger. Because we believe that strong teams fuel great innovation, we invest in experiences that make working together both meaningful and enjoyable. If you thrive in an environment that’s inclusive, dynamic, and full of genuine human connection, you’ll feel right at home here.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
