Who You Are

You are a Senior Backend Engineer who takes pride in writing clean, production-grade code and thinking beyond the ticket. You thrive in cross-functional environments, communicate with clarity across engineering, product, and analytics, and bring the architectural instincts to design systems that scale. Whether in Python or Kotlin, you deliver with consistency, hold a high bar for quality, and are energized by the complexity of financial products and card platforms.


What You'll Do

  • Write high-quality backend code in Python or Kotlin to power a card product for a leading US fintech company, upholding strong engineering standards across every layer.
  • Design and contribute to system architecture, taking ownership from concept through implementation.
  • Build robust APIs and data models that operate within service-oriented and event-driven architectures.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Analytics, and engineering teams to define and execute the card platform strategy.
  • Participate in on-call engineering processes that support team growth and reduce operational toil.


What You Bring

  • 6+ years of experience as a backend software engineer, with strong proficiency in Python or Kotlin.
  • Advanced English (B2/C1) is mandatory, with excellent written and verbal communication skills including async formats such as tech specs, wikis, and project plans.
  • Strong understanding of relational database systems and best practices.
  • Deep knowledge of distributed systems and how architectural decisions impact performance and maintainability.
  • Solid project management skills — highly organized, able to surface critical information and keep stakeholders aligned.
  • Demonstrated experience working with multi-functional teams including Product, Design, Analytics, and Business.


Nice to Have

  • Experience with AWS or other cloud providers.
  • Prior exposure to card-related systems such as Marqeta, Stripe, FIS, transaction processing, money movement, or ACH.
  • Background in risk, fraud mitigation, or decisioning services.
