Senior Backend Engineer - NYC
Rad Hires
Backend Engineer
As a backend engineer, you'll be responsible for extending our systems to support additional banking features, increases in usage volume, and the needs of our non-technical company functions.
You'll maintain our core offering — a deposit account and debit card powered through our Banking as a Service partner, while designing our architecture to bundle additional financial services into a personalized product experience. We've adopted a lightweight microservice infrastructure that allows us to move quickly, but that can flex on robustness to ensure scalability as our engineering team grows.
What you'll do
- Collaborate with our product, design, and front end functions to build new financial offerings that advance the company mission.
- Work with back end peers to establish new processes, software patterns, and tools that expedite our development process.
- Maintain a testing and observability stack that keeps our system stable and proactively alerts us of internal or third party users.
- Work with leadership to plan our engineering execution across different time horizons.
You are
- Opinionated on software engineering best practices, at a code and developer productivity level.
- Product-minded and passionate about delivering delightful experiences to customers.
- Experienced building backend systems that grow in complexity over time.
- A critical thinker capable of making tradeoffs in a fast paced environment.
- A great communicator and collaborator, capable of creating and running cross-functional processes.
Requirements
- 4+ years of experience in software engineering
- 2+ years of experience using Python and Postgres
- Bonus: Experience with GraphQL, DevOps (Terraform, AWS, Kubernetes), and pub/sub models (Kafka)
We value domain experts that are obsessed with their craft and push the quality bar beyond reach. We also like generalists that are self-driven and entrepreneurial, who can make product decisions and own operational processes.
About Company
Our client is building financial services to help immigrants turn their hard work into upwards mobility.
Since launching our own bank infra last November we've 40x'd revenue and crossed $1B in annual payments volume. We currently offer banking and remittances solutions, and will launch more products this year.
We believe immigrants are the ultimate entrepreneurs, carrying a relentless work ethic in search of a better future for their families. We exist to serve them throughout their journey.
Team
We are a team of 30 based out of New York, coming from industry-leading companies like Brex, Nubank, Cruise, and Verkada. Over half of us are immigrants, and have experienced the problems we're solving first hand. We value customer focus, high ambition, principled decision-making, and deep trust.
This is an in-person role for our office in Flatiron.
