Staff Backend Engineer

What you’ll be doing:

• Drive initiatives to design, build, and maintain scalable backend services (we primarily use Kotlin)
• Own and evolve service architecture, APIs, and data models in a financial domain with a high bar for correctness
• Build and maintain integrations with external providers that enable treasury capabilities (for example, deposits), and continuously improve reliability and how we run systems in production

You’ll bring solid experience with:

• Designing and maintaining backend systems, ideally in domains with strong requirements for correctness and reliability
• Observability and owning systems in production (monitoring, alerting, incident response, post-mortems)
• Distributed systems fundamentals (async workflows, consistency, idempotency, and designing for things going wrong in production)

Your colleagues would say you:

• Lead by example and raise the bar with pragmatism and care
• Communicate clearly, listen well, and bring people along in decisions
• Enjoy breaking down complex problems, gathering input, and driving to a solution
