The role:
You will steward the 'building blocks' of modern fintech. Our APIs empower clients to build unique financial experiences, meaning your team's work directly powers the innovation of some of the world's largest fintechs.
What you’ll do:
- Build the Golden Path: Design and deliver reusable frameworks and shared infrastructure that help product squads ship secure, observable, and compliant services by default.
- Create Platform Abstractions: Identify repeated implementation patterns and turn them into modular platform components that reduce duplication and simplify service development.
- Improve Traceability and Observability: Drive adoption of common telemetry and request-correlation patterns so teams can troubleshoot and operate services more effectively.
- Advance Contract-First Development: Help make technical contracts the source of truth for service development, with tooling that keeps implementation, documentation, and schemas aligned.
- Raise the DX (Developer Experience) Bar: Build platform tools that teams adopt because they are faster, clearer, and easier to use than bespoke alternatives.
- Navigate Trade-offs Well: Make sound technical decisions that balance standardization, delivery speed, and the practical needs of individual teams.
- Partner Across Teams: Work closely with engineers, managers, and adjacent platform teams to align on patterns, priorities, and rollout plans.
- Mentor Through Practice: Coach engineers through design reviews, code review, docs, and shared implementation work; help maintain core platform libraries and support an innersource contribution model.
What you’ll need:
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
- Distributed Systems Experience: 8+ years of experience designing and scaling resilient software systems, ideally with strong Python experience.
- Platform Mindset: Experience building shared libraries, services, proxies, or frameworks used by internal engineering teams.
- Modern SDLC Depth: Hands-on experience with CI/CD, automated testing, schema validation, and production delivery pipelines.
- Cross-Team Influence: A track record of driving technical direction and gaining buy-in from peer teams and stakeholders without direct authority.
- Cloud & Kubernetes Experience: Strong experience with AWS and Kubernetes-based environments.
- Pragmatic Engineering Judgment: Ability to identify when a problem should be standardized, abstracted, or left local.
Nice to have:
- Framework Expertise: Familiarity with Python Flask and/or FastAPI frameworks.
- Infrastructure as Code: Experience with Terraform for delivering standardized infrastructure templates.
- API Governance: Familiarity with OpenAPI/Swagger standards and the governance of large-scale API catalogs.
- Observability & Identity Experience: Experience with distributed tracing, metric taxonomies, and service-to-service authentication (S2SA) patterns.
- FinTech Experience: Domain knowledge in payment systems or highly regulated financial technology environments.
