Responsibilities Lead technical design and architecture by driving end‑to‑end ownership of complex, cross‑functional systems that support post‑transaction customer experiences at scale. Write and review high‑quality code across the full software development lifecycle, setting a high bar for engineering standards and providing meaningful feedback in code reviews. Identify and resolve ambiguous technical problems by breaking down large, undefined challenges into clear, actionable solutions with measurable outcomes. Mentor and support fellow engineers by sharing technical expertise, fostering a culture of learning, and helping teammates grow through guidance and constructive collaboration. Partner cross‑functionally with product, data, and design teams to translate business requirements into scalable, reliable technical solutions that serve a diverse global customer base. Champion operational excellence by improving system observability, driving incident response, and proactively addressing reliability, performance, and security concerns. Qualifications 8 or more years of professional software development experience. Demonstrated experience designing and building distributed, large‑scale backend systems with a strong understanding of service‑oriented or microservices architecture. Proficiency in one or more modern programming languages such as Java, Kotlin, Go, or Python, with a consistent record of delivering production‑quality code. Experience working with cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, or Azure, including familiarity with managed services, infrastructure as code, and deployment pipelines. Strong problem‑solving skills with the ability to navigate technical ambiguity, evaluate trade‑offs, and deliver pragmatic solutions in a fast‑paced environment. Proven ability to collaborate effectively across engineering, product, and business teams, with clear written and verbal communication skills.
