Tech Lead, Business Platform Development Division, Platform Application Department, Tokyo
Overview At Money Forward Inc., 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 cutting-edge "account aggregation" technology to gather user data, turning it into useful insights for our customers. Within the Money Forward Business Company (MFBC), "Money Forward Cloud" is a component-based cloud ERP composed of multiple service groups. While these groups provide flexibility for users to choose combinations based on their needs, developing them in isolation can lead to data silos, inconsistent user experiences, and reduced development efficiency. To solve this, our Business Platform Development (BPD) division builds the common foundations that unify these services and ensures their stable use across the company. Our division is responsible for developing and managing shared microservices and backend systems that power workflows and platform functionality across "Money Forward Cloud". We work to standardize services, improve collaboration across products, and enhance performance and scalability. By organizing complex system logic, addressing technical debt, and documenting our knowledge, we aim to create a reliable, maintainable, and future-ready platform that delivers consistent value for both developers and end-users. We are looking for a hands-on Tech Lead who can code daily while guiding the team through Agile execution and stakeholder alignment. In this role, you’ll actively lead Agile ceremonies, collaborate with stakeholders, and write and review code daily.

This is a rare opportunity to combine leadership and technical depth in a lean, fast-moving environment, while shaping the developer experience and reliability of Money Forward’s common platform services. Responsibilities and Duties Own and actively facilitate sprint planning, daily stand-ups, retrospectives, and other Agile ceremonies. Act as a key contact point between engineering, business stakeholders, and management to ensure alignment and visibility. Contribute directly to development, designing and implementing scalable backend systems and services. Provide technical guidance, mentorship, and regular code reviews to ensure high engineering standards. Track team progress and health using tools like Jira, ensuring timely delivery and continuous improvement. Help shape team processes, estimation practices, and foster a culture of shared ownership and accountability. Required Skills and Experience 5+ years of experience in software development with strong hands-on skills in a modern programming language (e.g., Go, Java, Kotlin, TypeScript, Python, etc.). Experience in leading small teams or acting as a Scrum Master, Tech Lead, or Engineering Manager in an Agile environment. Deep understanding of backend system design, software architecture, and microservices. Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with ability to collaborate effectively with product managers, designers, and leaders. Comfortable facilitating Agile ceremonies and balancing delivery accountability with technical execution. Strong sense of ownership, self-direction, and reliability in fast-moving environments. Preferred Skills and Experience Experience with distributed systems, message queues (e.g., Kafka), or event-driven architectures. Familiarity with Domain-Driven Design (DDD), clean architecture, or design patterns for scalable backend development. Exposure to infrastructure as code, containerized environments (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes), or cloud platforms (especially AWS). Experience working in a multi-national, cross-timezone team environment. Scrum Master certification (CSM, PSM) or similar is a plus. Experience in AI development and/or experience in using AI tools to improve development processes. Money Forward recently announced our AI Strategy roadmap which focuses on improving AI-driven operational efficiencies, as well as integrating AI agents into our products to deliver better value to our users.

AI Program Manager, Productivity Innovation Department, Tokyo
Overview The SMB Product Development Division is seeking a strategic and execution-focused AI Program Manager to drive our AI transformation. While your primary initial focus will be leading the AI Innovation Hub, this role is designed for a change agent capable of managing a portfolio of AI initiatives. Your mission is to act as a bridge between technical potential and business value—stimulating high-quality ideas, incubating them into impactful PoCs, and driving the cultural and operational changes required to make AI a natural part of our engineering, product, and design DNA. You will look beyond single projects to build a sustainable engine for innovation and productivity. Responsibilities and Duties 1. Strategic Program Management & Initiative Leadership Lead the AI Innovation Hub: Own the roadmap and execution of our SMB internal incubation program, including "Idea & Demo Days" and structured incubation cycles. Drive Multiple AI Initiatives: Beyond the Hub, identify, scope, and lead ad-hoc strategic AI projects (e.g., specific workflow automations, tool rollouts, or pilot programs) that require cross-functional coordination. Portfolio Management: Maintain a holistic view of various AI experiments and PoCs across the division to prevent silos, reduce redundancy, and ensure alignment with business goals. 2. Incubation & Experimentation Architecture Structure Success: Design and refine the end-to-end incubation process (application, selection, validation, milestones) to ensure teams move effectively from loose concepts to "Demo Day-ready" PoCs. Focus on Impact: Collaborate with technical leaders to ensure initiatives are not just "cool tech," but are rooted in solving genuine user problems or achieving measurable internal productivity gains. Advisor Orchestration: Recruit and coordinate a pool of experts (Senior Engineers, AI Specialists, PdMs) to mentor teams, providing the right technical and product guidance at the right time. 3. Change Management & Cultural Transformation Community Building: Nurture a vibrant, cross-functional AI community. Move beyond simple "engagement" to creating a culture of continuous learning and experimentation. Best Practice Enablement: Partner with technical leads to translate complex AI capabilities into accessible playbooks, "getting started" guides, and reusable templates for engineers, PdMs, and designers. Event Management: Plan and execute high-impact events (Hackathons, Demo Days, Sharing Sessions) that celebrate success and inspire broad adoption. 4. Operational Excellence & Continuous Improvement Measure What Matters: Define and track success metrics not just for the program (participation, completion), but for business impact (adoption rates, time saved, productivity improvements). Feedback Loops: Actively collect qualitative and quantitative data after every cycle or initiative. Analyze "what worked" and "what didn't" to iterate on the program structure and the division’s overall AI strategy. Stakeholder Communication: Keep leadership and cross-functional partners informed on progress, resource requirements, and outcomes. Required Skills and Experience Core Program & Change Management 5+ years of experience in program management, product operations, innovation management, or technical project management. Change Management: Proven track record of driving adoption of new technologies or processes within a large organization. You know how to influence without direct authority. Strategic Agility: Ability to switch contexts between high-level strategy (roadmapping, culture building) and tactical execution (event logistics, sprint planning). Product & Technical Aptitude Product Development Context: Deep experience working closely with software development teams (Engineering, Product, Design). You understand the software lifecycle (SDLC) and how AI fits into it. AI Operational Fluency: You view AI through a lens of business value, not just technical novelty. While you don't need to understand the engineering complexities of how models work (e.g., hallucinations or privacy architecture), you must be adept at consulting with our technical experts to vet feasibility. Your primary role is to bridge the gap: determining if a solution generates real ROI, validating its utility for the business, and managing the operational rollout to ensure adoption. Leadership & Soft Skills Facilitation: Excellent communication skills, capable of leading workshops, moderating panels, and articulating a clear vision to senior leadership. Entrepreneurial Mindset: You are self-driven and proactive. You don't just run existing programs; you identify gaps and propose new solutions to fill them. Preferred Skills and Experience Experience running internal startups, accelerators, or corporate innovation labs. Experience measuring productivity metrics (e.g., SPACE framework, DORA metrics) in an engineering context. Technical background (CS degree or coding bootcamp) is a plus, but not required if you have strong technical literacy. Language Requirements Business level English (Nice to have) Conversational or business level Japanese. 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.

Today, we have released dozens of products, and our B2B SaaS offerings alone serve over 200,000 paying users.

By balancing these two seemingly contradictory demands—stability and agility—we aim to deliver immense value to Japanese SMBs through the lens of accounting. We are looking for a leader who shares our perspective on these key areas: You want to leverage your experience to build development organizations that achieve both system stability and agility. You want to drive social impact through decision-making while managing a large-scale product development organization.

Security Specialist(Product Security), CISO Office, Tokyo
Overview At Money Forward, we develop a wide range of popular services, including our automated personal financial management tool "Money Forward ME" and the "Money Forward Cloud" suite for businesses. Our ecosystem is powered by advanced technologies such as "Account Aggregation" and our single sign-on system, "Money Forward ID." As our services handle sensitive financial data, we maintain the highest standards of security. The CISO Office works closely with our business units to ensure and enhance the security of our products. This includes the governance and visualization of major cloud platforms like AWS and GCP, as well as the design, implementation, and operation of common security features such as WAF. Additionally, the CISO Office is responsible for strengthening the security of our internal information systems. To provide a safe and secure experience for even more users, we are looking for a Security Specialist to join our team. About the CISO Office Our mission is to "Maximize the value delivered to our customers through security." We define and create the ideal security state for the entire Money Forward Group. Preventing service downtime and information leakage is, of course, critical. However, that is only one part of what we value. Excessive security measures can slow down development, potentially reducing or delaying the value we provide to our customers. As security professionals, we constantly ask ourselves how we can maximize customer value and implement the most optimized security solutions to achieve that goal. Security Principles We consider the ideal state of security and our organization through three core themes: Embedded security in business strategy Security does not exist in a vacuum. We design security measures in alignment with business strategies, taking into account the current business phase, costs, projected revenue, and potential loss in the event of a risk. Advanced balancing between security and experience The highest level of security is not always the "right" answer. Over-securing can increase costs and compromise user convenience. We must assess risks and always consider the most suitable security measures. Instead of simply avoiding risk, we sometimes choose to take calculated risks to pursue maximum user value. To achieve a sophisticated balance between convenience and security, we actively promote automation and autonomous systems. Autonomous and scalable organization of security As the Money Forward Group grows into a larger development organization, we aim to deliver even greater value. If the CISO Office handles every single security function, we will become a bottleneck and fail to scale. Each development department must be able to build secure services autonomously. The CISO Office focuses on building the frameworks and providing the support necessary to enable this autonomy. Responsibilities and Duties In this position, you will leverage your knowledge and experience in coding and infrastructure to maintain and enhance the security of Money Forward in collaboration with developers and IT infrastructure teams. As a Product Security Specialist, you will drive the following initiatives alongside other security specialists in the CISO Office: Establishment of security guardrails for AWS, Azure, and GCP environments. In-house security consulting: Providing technical advice on security and conducting architecture reviews for our developers. Vulnerability assessments and penetration testing: Performing or supporting security evaluations. Vulnerability intelligence: Collecting and verifying vulnerability information, including OSINT (Open Source Intelligence). Security tool development: Developing tools and scripts to automate or enhance security. Framework implementation: Implementing and deploying security frameworks such as NIST CSF and CIS Controls. DevSecOps implementation: Integrating security into modern development workflows, including K8s, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines. Required Skills and Experience Foundational understanding of computer science, including networking, operating systems, data structures, and cryptography. Experience in software development with at least one programming language, or hands-on experience practicing Security by Design. Business-level English communication skills. Knowledge or experience in any of the following areas: Vulnerability assessment Penetration testing or Red Teaming operations Forensics, malware analysis, or incident response Cloud security Architecture reviews Building and operating DevSecOps workflows Implementation and operation of security solutions (e.g., WAF, IDS/IPS, SIEM) Preferred Skills and Experience Business-level Japanese communication skills. Experience participating in CTFs (Capture The Flag). Experience in bug hunting or obtaining CVEs (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). Relevant certifications such as CISSP, CISM, OSCP, GCIH, etc. Deep understanding of Authentication and Authorization (e.g., OIDC, OAuth). Experience in security-related operations within the Financial or Fintech industry (e.g., knowledge of FISC guidelines). Experience in AI development and/or experience in using AI tools to improve development processes. Money Forward recently announced our AI Strategy roadmap which focuses on improving AI-driven operational efficiencies, as well as integrating AI agents into our products to deliver better value to our users. (More information here) Language Requirements English: Business level 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.

At the core of these services is our "Account Aggregation" data integration platform, which connects with over 2,500 financial institutions, including banks, credit cards, and securities firms. The Account Aggregation Division maintains and operates this massive platform daily, ensuring a stable data supply to each of our products. While our primary mission has been to provide a stable supply to internal products, we are now at a major turning point where we must significantly evolve our data platform. To achieve this transformation, we will leverage cutting-edge technologies, including AI, to drastically improve our existing development and maintenance processes. We are looking for a leader who will become a core member of the organization, driving process improvements while handling maintenance and operation tasks. Join us in refreshing the development processes of Japan's largest data integration platform and building the next generation of financial infrastructure. Responsibilities and Duties ◆Mission of the Account Aggregation Division From events to data >> From data to insight >> Move your life forward "Spending money," "growing assets," "selling products," and "receiving receipts"—the movements of money in our daily lives are vast and varied. Our mission is to acquire data that reflects these financial movements and provide value-added information to our users. To achieve this, our account aggregation system continues to evolve every day. We build the foundational architecture of the system and develop each individual function that operates upon it. To maintain stable connections with over 2,500 partners, consistent and steady maintenance is essential. In addition, our development scope is broad, ranging from supporting new financial institutions to implementing new product features. ◆Rewards and Growth Opportunities Take charge of the core technologies supporting Money Forward's major products and feel the direct impact of your work on over 10 million users. You will have the opportunity to work with vast and diverse user data that is unavailable at other companies, allowing you to conceptualize and design how data should ideally be structured. You will have the opportunity to work with socially valuable Open APIs and create them yourself. By connecting with over 2,500 financial services, you will deepen your understanding of financial data and gain extensive knowledge and experience in areas such as data policy development and project management. You can participate as a core member in transforming the organization during a turning point and gain hands-on experience in organization building. You can lead both domestic and international engineers, gaining team management experience in a global environment. You can implement operational efficiencies and process reforms using AI, and work on organizational improvements at a practical level. ◆Expected Roles Development and Maintenance Process Improvement: Gain a deep understanding of the field through hands-on development, and improve existing development and maintenance processes by leveraging AI and other technologies. Team Building: Share organizational policies with your supervisor to build consensus on the team's direction, and autonomously lead a team of approximately 3 to 5 members.

Senior QA Manager (HR Solutions Department), Tokyo
Overview MoneyForward provides "Money Forward Cloud," a cloud service for businesses that solves various money-related issues. Among them, Money Forward Cloud's HR domain services started with the release of "MoneyForward Cloud Payroll" in 2015, based on the background of money exchange between companies and employees. Since then, we have expanded our product lineup and now offer seven products in the HR domain. Money Forward Cloud Payroll Money Forward Cloud Human Resources Management Money Forward Cloud Attendance Money Forward Cloud Year-End Adjustment Money Forward Cloud Social Insurance Money Forward Cloud My Number MoneyForward Cloud Employee Benefits Rental The HR domain has high potential for market share expansion, so it has been identified as a key area to accelerate business growth. As the number of product users increases and the organisation expands, improving product quality has become an urgent priority. As such, we are looking for a QA Manager to push forward the following initiatives: Strengthening quality assurance: Develop and execute strategies to improve product quality. Process improvement and standardisation: Establish efficient and consistent development processes and promote quality improvement across the organisation. Improving team capabilities: Improve the skills of the QA team and establish a system that contributes to improving product quality. Improving user satisfaction: Provide high-quality products to increase user satisfaction and build trust. By achieving these objectives, we aim to further enhance the competitiveness of Money Forward's HR products in the competitive market landscape and achieve sustainable growth. Current Issues Money Forward’s FY28 goal is to achieve sales of over 100 billion yen and EBITDA of over 30 billion yen. In order to achieve this, it is necessary to implement measures and improvements with a sense of urgency in terms of quality. Currently, we have multiple QA Engineers assigned to each product in the HR domain to perform quality assurance tasks, but with the rapid growth of our business and organisation, the globalisation of our development organisation, and the launch of new products, improvements are needed from a quality perspective. In particular, due to insufficient resources being allocated to improvement activities, the lead time for turning improvement proposals into processes and executing them is becoming longer, and mid- to long-term process improvements tend to be sidelined, resulting in insufficient quality improvement efforts. If this situation continues, there is a high risk of frequent quality issues in the future, which could lead to a decline in customer satisfaction and damage to the brand image. In order to strengthen the foundation of quality management and promote sustainable improvement activities, we are looking for someone who are skilled in process improvement and standardisation and can strongly promote improvement through an objective analysis of issues in the entire HR field, including collaboration with stakeholders in other departments and within the department itself. This role is expected to lead the improvement of quality throughout the organisation and contribute to medium- to long-term success.
