About Us

At Money Forward, we are dedicated to transforming financial services using advanced technology. With over 50 services for individuals and businesses, including popular products like Money Forward ME and Money Forward Cloud, we help make managing money easier. We use “account aggregation” technology to gather user data, turning it into useful insights for our customers.

Our company has reached a turning point from "Cloud to AI" and is accelerating company-wide AI Transformation (AX) toward achieving our goal of becoming the "No. 1 Back-Office AI Company in Japan" under "Money Forward AI Vision 2026."

Leveraging our robust customer base of over 440,000 companies and years of accumulated business logic, we are expanding beyond the traditional SaaS market into the ¥14.1 trillion "Digital Worker" market, where autonomous AI agents substitute and augment human labor.

To turn this grand ambition into reality, we are driving "AI-PDLC / AI-SDLC (AI-Driven Development)" to redefine the product development process itself. We are seeking engineers who want to look beyond simple SaaS feature additions—redefining architecture and user experiences using cutting-edge AI agent technologies to co-create next-generation products across job functions.

Overview

Money Forward provides a cloud-based business platform called Money Forward Cloud that helps companies solve financial and operational challenges through integrated cloud and AI-powered solutions.

Within this ecosystem, Money Forward Cloud ERP delivers scalable financial and business management solutions for mid-sized and large enterprises.

Over the past decade, Money Forward has built many products across different teams and technology stacks. To better scale and deliver more value to customers, the ERP Cross-Functional Engineering Department was established in 2023 to unify engineering foundations and improve collaboration across ERP teams.

Responsibilities and Duties

As an enterprise architect, you will set and lead the department-wide architectural direction for several disparate product teams, creating a more unified engineering organization in the process.

• Build a community of architects and technical leads across ERP product teams
• Become the chief facilitator that will lead by influence across three countries and multiple offices
• Provide division-wide architecture vision, strategy, and execution
• Mentor engineers in architecture and technical design
• Contribute to the creation and review of technical specs/design across the division
• Join company-wide architects community and participate to central initiatives

Expected Mindset

There are no perfect solutions, only trade-offs. A Chief Architect comfortably weighs performance vs. cost, flexibility vs. speed, and build vs. buy. 

Required Skills and Experience

• Architecture and systems design: distributed systems patterns, design of domain-oriented microservices, hands-on experience leading large-scale migration/refactor projects
• Proven experience designing high-throughput, low-latency, resilient cloud-native systems. Expertise in multi-tenant data isolation, event-driven architectures, microservices, and API-first platform design.
• Mastery of major cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure), container orchestration (Kubernetes), Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and modern deployment pipelines (CI/CD, zero-downtime releases). That includes finops and cost optimization experience at large scale.
• API platform and connectivity: deep knowledge of API design, end-to-end API lifecycle ownership
• Proficient in leveraging generative AI and advanced tooling to streamline workflows and accelerate delivery. Have proven hands-on experience setting up agentic workflow to increase engineering efficiency.
• Hands-on experience structuring scalable data pipelines, transactional vs. analytical databases (SQL/NoSQL/Vector), and integrating AI/ML workflows securely into product feature sets.
• Security and compliance: design and review of zero-trust architectures, practical compliance experience, secret management patterns
• Leadership and influence experience, track record of coaching Staff/Principal Engineers and standardizing architecture, strong facilitation skills
• Strong verbal and written English skills to ensure clarity and alignment across distributed, cross-functional teams. Communication ability is equally important than the technical skills expected for the role.

Preferred Skills and Experience

• Proven track record of leading architects and engineers in a mid-size product company or larger company
• Over ten years of experience in an software architect role or similar position

Language Requirements

• Japanese: Not required but nice to have
• English: Business level (equivalent to TOEIC 700 or above)
  • If you do not have a qualification equivalent to TOEIC 700 or above, you will be required to take a company-designated test during the selection process.

Work Environment

At Money Forward, we provide an environment where we can create world-class services together, and we are looking forward to welcoming you.

• Provided PC Specs: We provide PCs equipped with the latest CPUs (MacOS or Windows). Custom-made PCs tailored to business requirements and replacements with the latest OS are also possible.
• Systems to Enhance the Development Environment: Peripheral devices necessary for work (such as displays, mice, keyboards) can be purchased as office supplies. Generally, you can choose from standard products (catalog), and if conditions are met, you can apply for non-standard products as well.
• Money Forward Library: We have a library system where you can freely borrow books, ranging from technical books to management books. Desired books can be purchased at the company's expense.
• Referral Driven: We cover the cost of recruitment meals. There is a referral reward system.
• Conference Participation Support: The company partially covers participation in domestic and international conferences, such as RubyKaigi and Google I/O.
