This is a remote, international environment suited to engineers who enjoy ownership, technical challenges, and continuous learning.
Accountabilities
- Translate business and technical requirements into scalable backend services, working closely with relevant stakeholders and ensuring solutions are supported by meaningful automated tests.
- Design, develop, and maintain high-quality Java applications and distributed services using established engineering best practices.
- Build and optimize high-throughput backend systems that support secure, reliable, and seamless KYC and customer onboarding processes.
- Work with Spring Framework, MySQL, NoSQL databases, messaging middleware, and distributed system architectures to deliver resilient services.
- Proactively identify and resolve performance bottlenecks, production incidents, reliability issues, and other technical challenges.
- Conduct performance tuning across areas such as JVM, SQL, RPC, and distributed application components where required.
- Produce and maintain clear, accurate technical documentation covering system designs, implementations, operational processes, and relevant engineering decisions.
- Collaborate with other engineering teams and cross-functional stakeholders to integrate services and deliver business-critical capabilities.
- Contribute to engineering excellence by promoting clean code, testing, maintainability, scalability, and sound software development practices.
- Share technical knowledge and mentor junior engineers, helping strengthen engineering capabilities across the team.
- Stay adaptable and effective while working with distributed colleagues across different time zones and evolving business priorities.
