About the Role
As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll own and evolve the systems that connect our platform to a complex ecosystem of external vendors. This is a high-impact role operating at the intersection of distributed systems and fintech compliance.
You’ll design and build scalable, robust architectures that integrate with established, enterprise-grade third-party platforms, handling complex data flows and strict regulatory requirements. Beyond that, you’ll leverage AI and LLMs to automate workflows, improve system reliability, and accelerate development.
What You’ll Do

• Design, build, and maintain end-to-end integrations with 3rd-party vendors, including complex KYC & KYB identity verification flows
• Own data ingestion pipelines and data mapping layers, transforming external data into unified internal models
• Integrate and maintain services such as SMS, Email, and additional REST-based platforms
• Architect scalable, fault-tolerant, and secure systems for synchronous and asynchronous data processing
• Monitor, troubleshoot, and optimize production systems—handling failures, edge cases, and rate limiting
• Apply AI/LLMs to automate workflows, enhance testing, and improve engineering efficiency

What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years of backend development experience, including 3+ years working with Python in production environments
• Strong hands-on experience with Django Rest Framework and asynchronous processing using Celery
• Proven experience designing and consuming RESTful APIs and integrating with external services
• Solid experience with relational databases and data modeling (Postgres, MySQL or similar)
• Experience working with cloud environments and backend infrastructure (AWS, Docker, Airflow, OpenSearch)
• Strong system design skills with a focus on scalability and reliability
• Experience with TDD, CI/CD pipelines, and modern development practices
• Experience or strong interest in applying AI/LLMs to engineering workflows

Nice to Have

• Experience with GitHub Copilot or other AI-assisted development tools
• Familiarity with agentic software development approaches
• Strong prompt engineering skills
• Experience building or optimizing data pipelines
• Background in fintech or regulated environments (KYC, KYB, compliance)

Benefits & Perks

• Excellent group health coverage
• Stock options
• Flexible hybrid work model
• Large Study Fund contribution
• Salary Benchmarks and Checkpoints
• Monthly meal card of TenBis or CiBus (your choice) with generous balance
• Free parking for cars, scooters, and bikes
• Free gym membership
• Company-sponsored Mental Health Benefits
• PTO, Company Holidays, and Flexible Holidays
• Community-based volunteering opportunities
