  • We maintain a strong sense of business value and return on investment in planning, design, and communication.
  • We lead technical design and architecture discussions and help drive technical decisions while making appropriate trade-offs on technology, functionality, robustness, performance, and extensibility.
  • We estimate the project scope and timelines and consistently deliver on those commitments.
  • We implement, refine, and enforce software development techniques to ensure that the delivered features meet software integration, performance, security, and maintainability expectations.
  • We research, test, benchmark, and evaluate new tools and technologies and recommend ways to implement them in product development.
  • We maintain high standards of software quality and technical excellence within the team by establishing good practices and writing clean, testable, maintainable, and secure code.
  • We inspire a forward-thinking team of developers, acting as an agent of change and evangelist for a quality-first culture within the organization.
  • We proactively identify issues, bottlenecks, gaps, or other areas of concerns or opportunities and work to either directly affect change or advocate for that change.
  • We perform critical maintenance, deployment, and release support activities, including occasional off-hours support.

What We're Looking For:

  • A BS degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience.
  • 8+ years of professional experience in building full-stack Web-scale highly available multi-tenant SaaS, including substantial experience with backend platform, frameworks, RESTful APIs, and microservices, along with front-end experience (React preferred).
  • Expertise in JavaScript/TypeScript, C#, and.NET.
  • A solid computer science foundation, including data structures, algorithms, and design patterns, with a proven track record of writing high concurrency, multi-threaded, secure, scalable code.
  • Proven experience delivering and extending highly extensible, modular applications with various models of extensibility, such as white-box, glass-box, gray-box, and black-box.
  • Experience with extensibility through OO patterns, plugins, external callouts, events, and notifications.
  • Experience as a technical lead for design, architecture, and code review of highly scalable distributed systems and event-driven architecture.
  • Fluent in SQL, No-SQL, data modeling, and transactional flows.
  • Superior analytical, problem-solving, and system-level performance analysis abilities.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Experience with reading/writing Stored Procedures.
  • Adaptable team player with strong collaboration skills and a focus on results and value delivery.
  • Experience working in an Agile development environment.
  • Passion for engineering excellence through automation, unit testing, and process improvements.
  • Experience with data integration and ETL tools (both productized and open source).

  • FinTech or Financial services domain background.
  • Good knowledge of internet security issues in software design and code.
  • Experience with continuous delivery and infrastructure as code.
