Role Summary

This role is intended for a senior fintech engineer responsible for building, scaling, and hardening modern financial platforms. The focus is on payments infrastructure, API ecosystems, and cloud-native financial services designed to operate at high volume, low latency, and under strict governance expectations.

The position is hands-on, system-oriented, and designed for professionals who thrive in production-grade fintech environments.


Key Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and maintain payment processing and financial service platforms

  • Build secure, scalable API-first architectures supporting internal and external integrations

  • Implement transaction workflows including authorization, posting, settlement, and reconciliation

  • Ensure system reliability through observability, fault tolerance, and redundancy strategies

  • Collaborate with product, risk, and data teams to translate financial logic into software systems

  • Contribute to architectural decisions around scalability, performance, and maintainability


Technical Requirements

  • Strong experience with distributed systems and microservices architectures

  • Proficiency in cloud-native environments (containerization, orchestration, CI/CD pipelines)

  • Solid understanding of payment flows, transaction lifecycles, and ledger interactions

  • Experience designing and consuming RESTful and event-driven APIs

  • Strong emphasis on code quality, testing, and documentation


Professional Profile

  • 7–12 years of experience in fintech, payments, or financial systems engineering

  • Proven track record working on high-availability, production financial platforms

  • Comfortable working remotely across multiple time zones

  • Structured, detail-oriented, and accountable for system outcomes


What This Role Offers

  • Exposure to international fintech use cases

  • Deep technical ownership over core financial systems

  • Long-term architectural impact rather than short-term feature delivery
