You will serve as the technical linchpin for our next-generation banking platform—owning the microservices-based, cloud-native backend architecture, leading a small cross-functional squad, and personally writing critical code.

  • Set engineering standards for code quality, testing, CI/CD, observability, and SecOps.
  • Own technical roadmap—balancing new features, tech debt, and reliability.
  • Mentor & manage a team of 4–6 developers; act as their unblocker and code-review anchor.
  • Integrate with third-party and core-banking systems (IBS, Plaid, Salesforce, etc.).
  • Partner with Product & UX on solution design and story shaping.

Required Qualifications

  • 7 + yrs building mission-critical backend systems; 3 + yrs as an architect or staff/principal engineer.
  • Deep expertise in microservice patterns, distributed systems, and domain-driven design.
  • Proven leadership of Agile teams delivering secure FinTech or other regulated workloads.
  • Fluent in NodeJS/TypeScript plus one JVM language (Java/Kotlin) or Go.
  • Excellent communicator who can translate tech trade-offs to execs and devs alike.
