Job Description

At Lendbuzz, we believe financial opportunity should be more personalized and fair. We develop innovative technologies that provide underserved and overlooked borrowers with better access to credit. From our employees to our dealers, partners, and borrowers, we’ve built a company and a culture around a resolute belief in the promise and power of diversity. We value independent and critical thinking.
We're looking for an experienced Software Engineer to join our team. In this role, you'll help design and develop backend systems, implement compelling user experiences, work on system architecture, and build event-driven microservices. You'll also collaborate on API integrations and contribute to products that impact thousands of users. The ideal candidate has 2-3+ years of software development experience and is skilled in PostgreSQL and microservices architecture.
This position primarily emphasizes backend development, comprising approximately 70% of the workload, with the remaining 30% dedicated to frontend tasks.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop solutions across the entire stack, from scalable backend infrastructure to seamless UX experiences.
• Cultivate expertise across technical and business domains, steering clear of professional pigeonholing
• Collaborate with the engineering team to design architecture and system frameworks for new product initiatives
• Opportunity to contribute to the development of event driven microservices
• Develop internal tools and seamlessly integrate with external APIs
• Contribute to the expansion, testing, and release of products that positively impact thousands of customers

Key Requirements:

• 2-3+ years of software development experience, preferably in product-based companies.
• Strong backend experience with Node.js and Python, with a focus on designing and implementing RESTful APIs.
• Proficient in frontend development using React (or a comparable framework) and TypeScript
• Experience in microservices-oriented architecture and system design.
• Fluency in relational database technology, such as PostgreSQL
• Comfortable across all stages of the product life cycle - analysis, design, coding, testing, and troubleshooting.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field.
• Knowledge of testing methodologies and a proven ability to work independently with exceptional interpersonal skills.

We believe:
Diversity is a competitive advantage. We celebrate our differences, and are better when we have a variety of experiences, viewpoints, and backgrounds.
Compassion is a strength. We care about our customers and look to build long-term relationships with them.
Simplicity is a key feature. We work hard to make our forms and processes as painless and intuitive as possible.
Honesty and transparency are non negotiable. We incorporate these traits in all of our interactions.
Financial opportunity belongs to everyone. We work every day to improve lives by extending this opportunity.
If you believe these things too then we would love to hear from you!
